About the Hopper
The Hopper sorts the screws for delivery to the screw gun. The Hopper is attached to the Frame
Interface which in-turn is attached to the Six/Eight Shooter.The Frame Interface allow the Six/
Eight shooter assembly to move across the machine.
Important: Do not mix screw types in the Hopper. Different sizes, pitches can cause
uneven application of the hinge.
Important: Do not adjust any of the Hopper air cylinders. They are adjusted at the
factory. Any adjustment may cause timing issues with the operation of
the Six Shooter. If you think problems are being caused by the cylinders,
please contact the KVAL Service Department for direction.
Important: Do not put Magnetized Screws in Hopper. Magne-
tized screws can cause sluggish response to screws
getting stuck. Hopper plates could get magnetized
and will have to be demagnetized with a degausser.
