Hold Down Adjustment; How To Adjust The Hold Down - Baileigh Industrial SBR-5220 Operator's Manual

HOLD DOWN ADJUSTMENT

When the shearing cycle starts, the spring loaded hold down pushes on the piece part to secure
it. It also helps keep the operator's fingers away from the cutting blades. When adjusted
properly there should be no more than 1/4" (6.3mm) of clearance below the hold down to feed
the piece part.

How to Adjust the Hold down

1. Turn the handlebar to lower the upper blade completely.
Loosen or tighten as needed so there is approximately 1.125"
(28.5mm) between the bottom of the bolt head and the flat of
the hex stud (#44).
2. Turn the handlebar to raise the blade completely. There
should be a 1/4" (6.3mm) gap between the shear table and
the hold-down. If not, repeat step 1.
