ADJUSTMENTS
CUTTER
The cutter may have to be adjusted if the tool has been altered to accept a different width or
thickness of strap or an adjustment may be needed if the cutter has been replaced due to wear or
damage.
Run a cycle with strap of the size to be used. A properly adjusted cutter will sever the top strap
completely but the lower strap will have minimal impression, at the most. Excessive scoring of the
lower strap is an indication of over cutting and this is not acceptable.
Lay the tool with the strap loading side down, remove the socket head cap screw (SHCS) that
attaches the locking plate to the base (it is not necessary to remove the locking plate). Insert a 5.0
mm hex wrench into the end of the eccentric shaft. Rotate the shaft clockwise a few degrees for
thinner strap or counterclockwise for heavier strap. There are two mounting holes available for
the locking plate. Align the "nearest" hole in the plate to the mounting hole in the base and
reinstall the socket head cap screw.
FEEDWHEEL AND CLUTCH PLUG
There is no adjustment for feedwheel/clutch plug clearance. The clearance should be .001" to
.015" (0.025 to 0.38mm). The most important issue is that the feedwheel does not interfere with the
clutch plug.
ROTATE THE LOCKING PLATE
CLOCKWISE TO LOWER THE CUTTER
FOR THINNER GAUGE STRAPPING.
ROTATE THE LOCKING PLATE
COUNTERCLOCKWISE TO RAISE THE
CUTTER FOR HEAVIER GAUGE
STRAPPING.
