CHAPTER 13ENTRY DRUM ASSEMBLY40ENTRY DRUM ASSEMBLYThe Entry Drum Assembly is necessary when feeding coil off of the optional DR1/ DualOverhead Reel Stand. It allows you to route the material around the drums to get thepainted side of the coil on the top as it enters the machine.

TheEntry Drums need to be adjusted whenever a width change is made.To adjust the entry drums:1. Using a 3/16” allen wrench, loosen the four Shaft Collars “E”, on either side ofLeft Entry Drum and Center Entry Drum. (Figure 29)2.
