2. Remove the master clamper.
3. Remove tetron screen and the metal screens from the drum unit.
4. Wipe off the ink around the ink roller and the doctor roller.
5. Insert a 0.08-mm gap gauge between the doctor roller and the ink roller.
Then make sure that a 0.1-mm gauge can not penetrate the gap.
NOTE: Check the gap at the right, center, and left positions.
6. If the gap is not within specifications, loosen the screws [A] on both sides
and adjust the gap by turning the eccentric bushings [B] on both sides.
