Final Forward Stroke Adjustment
The forward stroke must be adjusted to allow the component leads to fully
seat in the carrier clip.
If the stroke is too short, the leads fail to pass the high points on the clamps,
and the component falls off the clip. If the stroke is too long, the leads are
bent back by the pushers and cause bad insertions.
Final adjustment should be done with the feeder mounted on the machine and
the production components used.
This adjustment is recommended when the component type on a feeder is
changed or the feeder is being used for the first time.
Prerequisites:

WARNING
Operating the machine when the INTERLOCK BYPASS key switch is in
the ON position may be hazardous, and must be performed by qualified
technicians only. The INTERLOCK BYPASS key MUST be removed
before resuming normal operation.
1. Remove any component in the carrier clip at the selected station.
