12. PROCEDURE FOR THE AIR CHAMBER AND COLLET TYPE
CABLE INFEED CABLE GUIDE ASSEMBLY HEIGHT
Step 1
When changing collets and seals to accept smaller / larger sizes of cable it is necessary to
adjust the height of the air chamber and the collet type infeed guide assembly.
This setting must be carried out accurately, as failure to do so will seriously impair the
function of the machine.
AIR CHAMBER:
To adjust the air chamber bracket in either direction, release the
adjusting knob locking ring and turn the knob placed directly under
the air chamber. Down for smaller OD cables, and up for larger OD
cables.
Select the adjustment required using the increment gauge
on the side of the unit.
Tighten the locking ring to prevent any movement during
installation.
CABLE INFEED GUIDE ASSEMBLY:
To adjust the collet type cable infeed guide assembly
bracket in either direction, release the adjusting knob lock-
ing ring and turn the knob placed directly under the infeed guide bracket, down for smaller
OD cables, and up for larger OD cables.
Select the adjustment required using the increment gauges on the side of the
infeed cable guide bracket. Align the cable collet size arrow indicator for the
range of cable collet being used, to the outside diameter (OD) cable size to
be installed in the same color band for each marker plate i.e. silver to silver
for a 12-16mm cable collet range with a 16mm OD cable. Or blue to blue for
a 16-20mm cable collet range with a 16mm OD cable.
Tighten the locking ring to prevent any movement during installation.
