Hobart 5212F manual Lower Guide and Wiper Assembly

LOWER GUIDE AND WIPER ASSEMBLY

The lower guide and wiper assembly fits in the slideway of the wiper bracket (Fig. 3). The blade fits in the slots of both the steel guide and the nylon guard. Wipers fit on both sides of the blade. This assembly includes a wiper for wiping the lower pulley during use.

TABLE

In use, the table is aligned and supported by the locator block (Fig. 3) and four table rests (Fig. 4) fastened to the machine base. When aligned properly, the table is secured to the base when the tongue of the table is inserted in its slot (Fig. 4) and the table clamp is latched down (Fig. 5).

To remove the table, raise the gauge plate to its vertical position. Release the table clamp on the left side. Shift the table to the left, freeing the tongue from its slot. Lift table by its front side to remove.

To reinstall the table, tilt the front side of the table up so the rectangular hole on the rear side goes around the base of the column. Lower the table to the base. Raise the left end of the table and slide it to the right so the tongue on the right side fits in its slot. Lower the left end of the table. Align so the pins of the table rests are outside of the table support angles. The rectangular hole in the front table support angle straddles the locator block. When the table is in proper position, latch the table rod with the table clamp (Fig. 5).
