Uncrating and Clean-Up

1.Remove the crate from around the machine.

2.Carefully clean all rust protected surfaces with a mild solvent or kerosene and a soft rag. Do not use lacquer thinner, paint thinner, or gasoline. These will damage painted surfaces.

3.Coat all machined surfaces with a light coat of oil to inhibit rust.

4.Remove the bolts holding the machine to the skid.

5.Carefully move the machine to a level foundation. Machine location must allow access to all sides.

Assembly Note: Prior to shipment the foot shear is adjusted at the factory for proper operation. If the machine does not operate properly or the stand does not sit squarely on the floor, proceed to setup.

from the upper blade. The distance between the upper and lower blades should be 0.002- 0.005”. Do not let the blades overlap.

3.Place a heavy sheet of paper (~0.005”) in the cutting position, along the entire length of the bed, and slowly press the foot lever.

4.If the shear does not cut the paper move the lower blade towards the upper blade.

5.If the shear cuts the paper on the ends, but not the center, turn the tie-rod adjusting screw #37, clockwise until the paper is cut the entire length.

6.If the shear cuts the paper in the center, but not the ends, turn the tie-rod adjusting screw #37, counter-clockwise until the paper is cut the entire length.

7.Make sure the scales #15 and #16 on top of the bed are square to the blade, and also show the correct distance from the blade.

8.Make test cuts to verify the scales are correct.

Stop Assembly

The (#) in the text refers to the breakdown.

1.Attach the two front arm extensions #6 to the bed with four hex cap screws and washers.

2.Attach the stop #71 to the front extension arms with T-nuts #72.

3.Attach the rear stop #59 to the adjusting block assembly #61.

4.Insert the rod #58 through the adjusting block assembly and into the cutter bar. Tighten in place with knobs #65.

Setup

1.Loosen four bolts #21. Loosen adjusting screws #18 & 19. The bed must rest squarely on the right and left hand side panels at all four corners while screws are loose. Shim legs at floor if necessary. Tighten hardware.

2.Use set screw #18 and hex cap screw #19, to adjust the lower blade towards or away

Blade Care

The 2-way upper blade can be removed and flipped 180°, for a sharp edge before having to sharpen the blade.

Wipe the blade lightly with oil. Lubricate all pivot points on the machine daily.

Spring Tension

The spring return can be adjusted on the foot lever by tightening #46 hex nuts.

The spring return can be adjusted on the hold down #3 by tightening #10 hex nuts.

Gib Adjustment

There are three hex cap screws #32 that can be adjusted for play in the shim #31. Adjust for smooth travel.
