ADJUSTING BALL

BEARINGS AGAINST TRACK

The cutting-head (C) Fig. 61, is suspended from four

pre-loaded, lubricated, shielded ball bearings, two of

which are on fixed shafts at (A) , and two on adjustable

shafts at (B). NOTE: CUTTING-HEAD (C) FIG. 61, IS

REMOVED FROM TRACK ARM FOR ILLUSTRATION

PURPOSES ONLY. DO NOT REMOVE CUTTING-HEAD

FROM TRACK ARM!

After extended use, wear may develop in the track arm,

causing “play” between the ball bearings and the track.

The ball bearings must ride smoothly and evenly in the

channels of the track arm. Adjustment to the two

bearings on adjustable shafts can be made as follows:

DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER SOURCE.

2. Remove plastic plug (D) Fig. 62, from the top of

track arm (E).

3. Slide cutting-head (C) Fig. 63, until one of the ad-

justable bearings (B) Fig. 60, is visible through hole (G)

Figs. 62 and 63.

4. Using a 1/2" socket, extension, and ratchet (H) Fig.

63, through hole (G) in track arm, slightly loosen hex nut

on adjustable shaft (B) Fig. 61, approximately 1/8 turn.

Repeat procedure for other bearing.
