11. Eccentric Stud Adjustment -(Typehead Homing) Use the
followi ng procedure to ad just the eccentri c stud:
a. Damper spring stop - as a preliminary adjustment,
sl ide the damper spring stop down as low as it wi II
go behind the damper spring (Fig. 61).

of the V -shaped wedging slot.

negative direction from the center of the detent
notch when the head play is lightly removed in the
negative direction (Fig.

Make sure that the
damper spring is fully collapsed against'the machine
sideframe.
After the eccentric stud has been properly adjusted
the compensator roller must be reseated by raising
it to the top of the V-shaped slot and striking a
seriesofIM's". The compensator roller should seat
1/16"
down from the top of the slot. I f it drops too
