MOUNTING & ADJUSTMENTS

Wear safety glasses dur- ing the entire assembly process. Failure to com- ply may result in serious personal injury.

Some metal parts may have sharp edges on them after they are formed. Please examine the edges of all metal parts before handling them. Failure to do so could result in injury.

Mounting Slip Roll

To mount the Model G7148 you will need to pro- vide four 516" bolts, nuts, lock washers, and eight flat washers. To determine the length of the bolts, add 1" to the thickness of your workbench.

1.Place the Model G7148 in the desired loca- tion on the workbench. Make sure there is enough room for the handle to move. (The handle should be positioned on the right when looking at the slip roll from the front.) Make sure there is enough room behind the slip roll to accommodate the material.

2.Mark the bench through the base, remove the slip roll, and drill 1132" holes in the work- bench.

3.Place the slip roll so the holes in the base line up with the drilled holes, and install the hardware in the following order: (1) Bolt, (2) Flat Washer, (3) Slip Roll, (4) Workbench,

(5)Flat Washer, (6) Lock Washer, and (7) Nut.

Adjusting

MATERIAL THICKNESS

The distance between the fixed shaft and the front movable shaft allow for varying thicknesses of material.

To increase the gap between the fixed shaft and the front shaft, screw the front adjustment knobs counterclockwise. Make sure you adjust both knobs an equal amount. To decrease this dis- tance, turn the knurled adjustment knobs clock- wise. See Figure 1 for control locations and part identification.
