Multi-Adjust® WrinkleSTOP® REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS


RUBBER SLEEVE REPLACEMENT


refer to drawing No. 21337-14 (click here to view drawing)

1. Remove roll from mounting blocks (#13) and support journal ends in "V" blocks. NOTE: DO NOT LAY ROLL ON ITS FACE. TO DO SO COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE INTERNAL PARTS.

2. Remove pivot arm adjustment screw #10 (both ends).

3. Slide off pivot support collar #11 (both ends).

4. Remove two ¼-20 set screws (#17) closet to pivot support collar (#11).

5. Loosen pivot slider adjusting screws (#19) in each end of shaft by turning counter clockwise, to relax stretch of sleeve.

6. Insert centering bushings in both ends (supplied with repair kit) over center shaft (#14) and under pivot support collar (#11).

7. Remove three ¼-20 x ¾' long cap screws (#20) from end cap (#5) on both ends.

8. Insert three ¼-20 x 1 ½' long cap screws (supplied with repair kit) into the three holes provided in end cap (#5) that are NOT counter-bored.

9. Turn cap screws that were inserted in step 8, 1 ½ turns per screw, working in a clockwise rotation to remove end cap (#5) evenly.

10. Remove serrated sleeve clamp (#6) by lightly tapping the edge of the clamp with nylon or wooden block at each serration. (Do not tap in between serration's - this will bend clamp in that location)

11. Cut or slide off old sleeve (#1). NOTE: If cutting sleeve off, be extremely careful not to cut into flexible disks (#2) located under sleeve. (Approximate thickness of sleeve is ¼')

12. Slide new sleeve on so that it covers the outer bearing ring #7 (both ends of roll). NOTE: When installing sleeve, do not distort internal flexible disks (#2).

13. Trim excess sleeve (#1) so it is flush with the beginning of knurl on the outer bearing ring (#7).

14. Reinstall serrated sleeve clamp (#6) at both ends of roll, making sure that the sleeve slides between the outer bearing ring (#7) and the sleeve clamp (#6).

15. Reinstall end cap #5 (both ends) by lining up counter-bored holes with tapped holes in outer bearing ring. Then install three ¼-20 x 1 ½' long cap screws and tighten evenly around in clockwise rotation. When the 1 ½' screws bottom out, remove and install original ¼-20 x ¾' long cap screw (#20) and tighten clockwise until the end cap is drawn up tight to the outer bearing ring (#7).

16. Remove centering bushings.

17. Install pivot support collars #11 (both ends) with grooves facing outward and lining up with grooves in pivot bearing support (#9).

18. Reinstall pivot adjusting screws (#10), making sure they line up with clearance hole in pivot bearing support (#9).

19. To adjust sleeve stretch, first loosen ¼-20 set screws (#17) closest to pivot support collar (#11). Turn pivot slider adjusting screw (#19), located in the end of the shaft, clockwise (the number of turns are indicated in the chart below) to obtain the amount of stretch as shown in the rubber sleeve stretch chart.

NOTE: A BASIC RULE OF THUMB, THE MORE STRETCH APPLIED-THE BETTER THE SPREADING ACTION, HOWEVER, THE MORE STRETCH APPLIED-THE LESS SLEEVE LIFE.

DO NOT OVER ADJUST THE SLEEVE STRETCH! IF SLEEVE STRETCH IS TOO GREAT IT WILL DRASTICALLY REDUCE THE LIFE OF THE SLEEVE!

20. Tighten ¼-20 set screws (#17) once desired stretch is achieved.
