10.1 Adjusting the backlash
Description Backlash (>>> Fig. 10-1) occurs between the tooth flanks of the drive pinion
and rack. It has to be readjusted in the case of wear and after the drive assem-
bly, the rack or the drive pinion has been replaced.
The backlash can be adjusted by shifting the intermediate plate (>>> Fig. 10-
2) on the carriage. The intermediate plate is shifted by turning the eccentric.
