PROFILE CHANGEOVER PROCEDURE
CAUTION: Always make sure your machine is shut down prior to making any
adjustments. DO NOT reach through the opening of the shear while the
machine is running. EVER! To do so could result in serious injury.
1. Remove Top Covers number 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 (Figure 37) and set aside.
Figure 37: Remove Top Covers
2. Using a ½” wrench, remove the bolts holding the right and left Tooling Rails to
the Fixed Rail Mounts (Figure 38). Store the tooling and set the hardware near the
machine for use when installing the next profile. Note: the SS100, SS150,
SS450/450SL, and BP profiles all share the same left-side rollers, so if you are
changing from one of these profiles to another you will only need to remove the
right-side Tooling Rails. Likewise, the FF100 and FF150 profiles also share the
same left-side rollers, so if you are changing between these two profiles you will
only need to remove the right-side Tooling Rails.
