6.7 KNIFE VERTICAL POSITION ADJUSTMENT - Figure 6-6
1.
Disconnect Power Cord from wall outlet.
2.
Remove the Housing.
3.
Make sure Knife temperature, lateral position, and cutting depth adjustments are correct.
4.
Bind a 3/8" stack of paper using the "Standard" speed. Inspect the finished product - the
rivet head should be flush to .01" above the bottom strip, with no burn marks showing from
the Knife Blade.
5.
If adjustment is necessary, loosen the 4 Knife Assembly Mounting Screws attaching the
assembly to the Cutter Arm Assemblies.
6.
Loosen the Left and Right Vertical Adjusting Screws' Hex Nuts.
7.
Remove the Timing Belt from the Camshaft Drive Pulley, and rotate the Camshaft
counterclockwise until the Knife Blade is all the way forward, and at its highest point in the
Bridge cutouts.
8.
Turn the Knife Blade Vertical Adjusting Screws "clockwise" to raise the Blade, and
"counterclockwise" to lower the Blade.*
*NOTE: A good starting point would be to adjust the Blade level with the Bridge surface.
9.
Tighten the Left and Right Vertical Adjusting Screws' Hex Nuts, and tighten the 4 Knife
Assembly Mounting Screws. Reinstall the Belt.
10. Run a sample bind to test the Knife Blade vertical position on both "Standard" and "Fast"
bind speeds. Minor readjustment may be necessary.
