Positioning the number and letter plates
on the guide rails
Push the desired number and letter plates later-
ally into the guide strip, as illustrated in Fig. 6.
Caution:
Ensureduring this that at least 10 number and
letter plates areused!
Wheresurplus plates arerequired for this pur-
pose, please ensurethese arereversed (face
down) when pushed into the guide strip!
Please note:
Apressurepiece should be inserted at the begin-
ning and end, as shown in the illustration.
Securing the guide rail to the T- slot table
See Fig. 7aand b: Push the guide strip with the
desired letter and number combination and the
screws and squarenuts included into the centre
of the larger of the two tables and screw firmly
into position.
The electric tool can then be clamped into the 20
mm fit. Simply insert as illustrated in Fig. 8and
clamp firmly with the Allen screw 1.
Please do not forget to clamp the tool to be used
in the electric tool prior to this!
Align the positions of individual elements
and the engraving device settings:
Aligningthe guide rail and workpiece (Fig. 9)
Naturally enough, options for movement of the
guide arm arelimited, depending on the reduction
configured. This task is thereforeimportant when
it comes to aligning the workpiece position with
the working range of the engraving needle.
1. Fix the workpiece 1temporarily to the work-
table 2using appropriate fastening material
(e.g. collet set, article no. 24256)
2. Then traverse to both end positions of the
number and letter sequence 4tobeengraved
with the guide marker 3, observing the move-
ments of the engraving needle. Do these
remain in the correct area of the workpiece in
every position, and can the needle move
freely?
3. Please also ensurethat the needle does not
collide with the fastening media! Following
correct aligning, please clamp the workpiece
firmly.
Adjustment of the T-slot tables in their guides
This is afurther option to align the positions of the
workpiece and the stencil with each other if
necessary.The procedureisasfollows:
1. Release the clamping screws 1(Fig. 10)
2. Push one or,ifnecessary,both tables 2into
the required position
3. Retighten the clamping screw 1
Aligning the height setting of the engraving
needle and guide marker:
Twooptions exist for varying the height of the
guide arm relative to the workpiece thickness and
the engraving needle. Please proceed as follows:
Adjusting the height of the swivel joint:
1. Release the locknut 1(Fig. 11)
2. The height can now be adjusted by turning on
the handle 2
3. Tighten the locknut 1again when adjustment
is completed
Adjusting the height of the guide marker:
1. Release the locknut 3.
2. The height position can now be adjusted by
turning the pin 5onthe handle 4.
3. Tighten the locknut 3again when adjustment
is completed.
The guide arm can be raised to acertain degree
(see Fig. 11). This is essential when working if the
guide marker needs to be moved, but the engrav-
ing needle is not engaged.
In addition, improved access to the electric tool
when raisingfacilitates changing the engraving
needle.

Ensurethat all settings arecorrect. This applies in
particular to the guide arm height setting!
