BAUMSET ADJUSTMENT

1.0 Adjustment of Folding Rollers

Folding accuracy is determined largely by precise

adjustment of the folding rollers.

Using the Baumset precision adjustment device, the

correct setting of the rollers can be made simply by inserting

the appropriate paper thickness between the adjustment

plates. (See Figure 22)

With multiple thicknesses, insert single strips of the

paper being folded equal to the number of sheets passing

through that roller combination..

Since the adjustment spindle acts directly on the folding

rollers, clearance settings are exact.

Another method for setting the folding rollers is to insert

paper strips between them by touch, the pressure adjustment

being made by turning the knurled screw.

The numbers on the Baumset adjustment knobs corre-

spond to the buckle-plate numbers into which the sheet is

fed. All upper buckle plates have odd numbers while the

plates below are even.

The Baumset adjustment device is correctly zeroed at the

factory. If any adjustment is necessary, strips of single paper

thickness should be placed under every adjustment plate. The

folding rollers are then reset by drawing strips of uniform

thickness through the appropriate pair of rollers as far as

possible to the other side.

At the same time, the knurled screws are adjusted so that

the strips can be withdrawn when medium drag is felt. When

this operation is complete, the dial rings are reset to zero.

A double sheet strikes the scanner on the microswitch,

interrupting the sheet flow-through.

With single sheet thickness, the scanner remains

untouched and sheets move freely.
