CHAPTER 14

WIDTH CHANGE PROCEDURE

CAUTION: Always make sure your machine is shut down prior to making any

adjustments. DO NOT reach through the opening of the shear while the machine

is running. EVER! To do so could result in serious injury.

1. Loosen the two “A” bolts on the Left Entry Guide (Figure 30). Slide the entry

guide to the left or right to accept the new coil width.

2. Make sure that the coil is captured snugly between the entry guides and re-

tighten the two “A” bolts.

3. Using the Tooling Rail Adjustment Handle “B” (Figure 24) align the notch on

the tooling rail marker plate to the alignment pin located in the Left Entry

Guide. Make sure to choose the notch that corresponds to the desired leg

configuration as noted on the decal on the marker plate (Figure 25). The

Tooling Rail Adjustment Handle is spring loaded to allow it to disengage from

the width adjustment gear (Figure 26). Press inward on the center of the

handle and turn (Figure 27) to engage the width adjustment gear. Turn the

handle clockwise to move the tooling outward or counter-clockwise to move it

inward.
