10” Platen Assembly
Place one teflon washer between arm and d-plate where the d-plate
will rotate (red arrow). Install the platen d-plate with ½-13 x 2-1/2 carriage
bolt, flat washer, and nylock nut on the short arm.
Make sure the holes in the d-plate are on the bottom. (green arrow)
Insert the ½”-13 x 2-1/2” carriage bolt into the slot and secure with ½-13
internal threaded adjustable handle.
Install the idler wheels into the platen d-plate using ½”-13 x 3” hex bolt,
spacer, and nylock nut.
Be careful not to overtighten bearings. The wheel should spin freely but there
shall not be extra space between the bearings and nut or bolt head.
Install the platen onto the platen d-plate using ¼”-20 threaded handles and
¼”-20 x 1” carriage bolts.
Install the wear plate to the flat platen using short 1/4” hex bolts. Align with belt on machine and tighten in place. Overtightening may strip the threads in the wear plate.
