INSTALLING THE BUG-5960 DRIVE CARRIAGE
1. Select the correct pair of holes on each side of the carriage for the rail diameter being used (see chart).
If the wheels are not attached to the correct set of holes, remove them and bolt the wheel brackets
in selected holes. Tighten the bolts until the brackets are snug, but still free to rotate.
2. Open the cam handle to separate the carriage.
On the drive unit, loosen and turn the clutch
knob counterclockwise to declutch the drive
pinion.
3. Place the carriage on the rail with the wheels
in the rail grooves. Close the cam handle
and move the carriage back and forth a
few inches. The wheels on their mounting
brackets will align themselves correctly in the
rail grooves.
4. Verify that wheels are properly aligned, then
tighten the wheel mounting bolts to lock them
in position. Rotate the clutch knob clockwise
to engage the drive pinion with the rack.
5. Verify that pinion is properly engaged in the rack. The correct wheel position will provide a minimum
of 1/8" engagement (approx. 3 mm) between the drive pinion and the gear rack. Note: For some rail
or pipe sizes, the pinion height may need to be adjusted.
