Baumfolder Rebuilding a 200 – 700 series folder - Manual (Page 2)

Section 1: How to Rebuild a Baumfolder
200 and 700 Series
NOTE; There are several bolts with the same diameter and thread but different lengths. Do not
interchange bolts of different lengths. The length is very important.
PREPARATION AND DISASSEMBLY
1. Before working on the folder: DISCONNECT ALL ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY
TO THE FOLDER to prevent the accidental start of the folder.
2. Check level across the number one roller; make sure the number one roller is tight
against the main drive roller, and check level from front to back of right and left frame.
Check to insure you have all the parts and tools necessary such as reamers, gauges,
and etc. It is helpful to clean area around the folder so if you drop anything, it will be
easier to find.
3. Remove all guards covering areas where you will be working. If the guards you are
removing have electrical wires in it, do not stretch the wires. A wire may pull out of the
terminal and cause a short when you check the folder. Caution should be exercised
when replacing the guards not to pinch lead wires between the guard and the frame
causing a short in the electrical system.
4. Remove drive belts. If you are not familiar with the equipment, I suggest you put tape on
the belt to identify its location for later convenience.
5. Remove slitter shaft and slitter shaft boxing.
6. Remove fold plates on the section you are working on. Store them in a manor that the
nose of the fold plate or the fold plate itself is not damaged.
7. To remove the rollers, loosen the setscrew in the collar of each
roller (usually on the left end of the roller) and move the collar
toward the body of the fold roll.
8. Remove the hand wheel. When removing the hand wheel on
the 700 series, there is a small bearing and small spring in the
hand wheel. Look For a small setscrew in the sleeve part of the
hand wheel. Remove the setscrew and hold your hand to catch
the spring and bearing when you turn the hand wheel over.
9. There is a worksheet in these instructions. Use this to make a note
of the location of the witness marks on the eccentrics for future
reference. You can achieve the proper space between the rollers
with the eccentric 180 degrees off until you get to the number five
roller. You want to know where to start when you are setting the
rollers.
