STRAIGHT PIN A 20 m6X 40

ST ISO8735 hammer in at left and right
of the main frame.
The straight pins are used as support for the cam holder.

Centre the complete cam holder 2786019061 and fasten it on the main frame with hexagon head screws
M12X 30, retaining rings, and large-diameter washers.

Prior to installing the control head cam, check the guiding function of the cam segment pos. 10, and level it
by turning the piston rod. The cam segment should smoothly move upwards and downwards.

Use a water level to ensure parallel mounting of

the directing cam at the heating module discharge.
Adjust the height of the directing cam so that the
guide's control device (pos. 2) is swivelled towards
the centre of the plastic switching roller (pos. 1).
While swivelling in, the guides control device
must not contact the plastic roller.

Use a water level to ensure parallel mounting of

the directing cam at the heating module infeed.
Adjust the height of the directing cam so that the
mandrel, stroke 44, can be pressed down another
5 mm.

5 mm

The directing cam settings specified in these instructions are to be used for the initial start-up of the heating module.
For the final adjustment of the directing cams, see operating instructions 031, Adjusting the transfer.
The guiding cam position will then result from the adjustment of the transfer positions.

Prior to installing the preform rejection unit: Turn the piston rod to adjust the pulling-off
jaws at a right angle to the pulling-off device.
Both pulling-off jaws must be positioned at the same height.
Mount the pulling-off jaws flush at the outside
Piston rod

Adjusting the Preform Rejection Unit, Cpl.

Gap between lower edge of the rejection unit
and upper edge of the preform neck ring: 1 mm
Gap between upper edge of the switching device and lower edge of the preform neck ring: 0.3 0.4 mm

Gap between preform and switching device: 1 mm

For rejection unit adjustment, use a preform gripper for standard PCO
neck finishes 0900966245 and a preform, e.g. 809908P067, with a
neck finish height of 21 mm.
The total dimension of preform gripper and preform should amount
to 79.7 mm, measured from the centre of the pin (preform gripper) to
the bottom edge of the neck ring (preform).
