Maintenance
Height adjustment:
The height of the press body can be
adjusted using two adjusting wedges. The
adjusting wedges can be set using two
fixed threaded rods (see fig. 89).
• Move the press body into the
channel until the outer knives of
the press body are half covered by
the counter blades.
Fig. 91: control cutting gap
• Master switch to position "0" and
secured against switching on by a
padlock.
• Measure the gap (max.1,0mm)
between the knife and the counter
knife with a feeler gauge.
• If the value of 1,0 mm is reached
resp. exceeded, the cutting gap has
to be adjusted as follows.
• Loosen the locknuts on both sides
(see fig. 91).
Fig. 92: adjusting screw
• By turning to the right the press
block is raised and lowered by
turning to the left.
• First carefully turn in only one
adjusting screw on each side.
Preferably it should be the middle
adjusting screw.
• Measure the cutting gap once
again. Repeat the procedure as the
cutting gap is about 0,3 mm +/‐ 0,1
mm.
• Take care that the measuring
values are the same over the entire
length. Otherwise the press body
may jam.
• Tighten all other adjustment
screws by hand without using
tools. The adjustment screws must
then be felt to make contact.
• Now use a spanner and turn all
adjustment screws approximately
a 1/6 turn deeper.
• Re‐tighten all locknuts.
• Repeat the measuring of the
cutting gap.
