(Fig. 9)To adjust the engagement between the blade reel cylinder andbottom blade, bring the edges entirely into slight contact with eachother by using the adjusting nuts so that newspaper can be cut.① If gap is created between edges→Slightly loosen the nut B and tighten A.② If tight and difficult to turn→Slightly loosen the nut A and tighten B.If the newspaper cannot be cut at some places even if the blades are inslight contact, grind them by lapping in good time.4-8 Operation and Adjustment of Side Brake1) OperationThe side brake is located on the left side of the saddle.
