Slowly hand cycle the machine until the check
pawl just drops into a tooth on the check rat-
chet. The print shaft gear should have rotated
1/2 to one tooth. If the print shaft gear rotat-
ed further than one tooth the collar must be
moved top toward the rear. Less than 1/2 to
one tooth, move it top toward the front.
A zero ti It, negative-f ive rotate character is used
because it offers the greatest resistance to the cycle
shaft during the restoring portion of a cycle, caus-
ing the cycle clutch spring to slip at the earliest
possible time.
NOTE:
If the collar shou Id become completely
loose, a good starting point may be ohained by
positi oning the collar so that its adjusting screw head
is approximately in line with the high point of the
negative-five cam.
CAUTION:
The cycle clutch stop attached to the
collar may prevent the shaft from reaching the
latched position. Any change in the cycle clutch
collar adjustment wi II necessitate a readjustment of
the
stoPi
the refore it is usually best to loosen the
stop before attempting to adjust the collar.

Degree Wheel Method
With the machine at zero degrees (cycle clutch
latched at rest) select a -5 rotate,
a
ti It character
and hand cycle the machine slowly.
The cycle
clutch spring should slip and stop driving at 170 to
175 degrees.

Cycle Clutch Overthrow Stop - With the cycle clutch
latched and the cycle shaft backed up against the check
pawl in its rest position, advance or retard the overthrow
stop on the cycle clutch collar so that it will allow the

After adjusting the cycle clutch overthrow

Filter Shaft - The filter shaft is set during manufacture at
approximately 25° (Fig. 46). This adjustment is not crit-
ical. When the relalionship (If the filter shaft gear has
been changed set the filter shaft for proper escapement
cam timing. Be sure and check the shift interlock cam
adjustment also.
NOTE:
Be sure to maintain .002" to .004" end playof
the filter shaft within the left hand filter shaft bearing.
The mounting of the left hand fi Iter shaft bearing allows
.011" laterial play of the bearing. Do not confuse this
lateral play of the bearing with the filter shaft end play.

The tilt pulley should be adjusted up or down on the ti It

The ti It pu Iley is attached to the ti It tube by a set screw
