This section
is
reissued
to
add
the
adjust-
ments
for
the
40P102
80-column friction
feed
printer
(noise reduced),
40P154
SO-column
tractor
feed printer, and
40P253
80-column forms
access printer.
1.03 Unless specified otherwise, adjustments
and lubrication apply
to
all printers
(80-column friction and
tractor,
132-column
tractor,
and
forms
access).
Note: When ordering replaceable
components,
prefix each
part
number
with
the
letters
"TP"
(ie,
TP123456),
unless specified otherwise.
1.04 Refer
to
Maintenance Tools, Section
570-005-S00
for
a
complete
listing
of
the
various
types
of
hand
tools
available
to
make
the
adjustments. Gauge
402617
(SO-column forms
access, SO-column friction
or
tractor),
402716
and
402717
(132-column
tractor),
and
two
40S765
gauges (132-column
and
forms access) are
required
for
certain adjustments. Also,
40286S
dynamic backup
bar
gauge
and
402878
type
carrier alignment gauge are used in adjusting
SO-
column
friction
or
tractor,
80-column forms
access,
and
132-column
tractor
printers.
1.05
To remove
the
printer
from
the
cabinet,
reverse
the
procedure
in
Section
582-210-
200
covering installation
of
the
printer.
1.06
Use
maintenance
pad
124828
to
protect
bench
top
or
floor
coverings from oil,
grease, and
dirt
while adjusting
or
lubricating
the
unit.

1.07 Some adjustments require access
to
subassemblies
that
have
to
be removed.
For
removal
of
these subassemblies, see Section
582-210-702.
1.08 The adjustments for the printer are
arranged in a sequence
that
should be
followed if a complete readjustment
of
the
printer
is
undertaken. A complete adjustment
procedure should be read before attempting
to
make
the
adjustment. After
an
adjustment has
been completed, be sure
to
tighten any
nuts
or
screws
that
may have been loosened
to
facilitate
the
adjustment, unless otherwise instructed.
1.09 The belt tensions given in this section
are indicated values and should be
checked with proper spring scales. The adjusting
illustrations, in addition
to
indicating adjustment
tolerances, show
the
angle
at
which
the
scale
should be applied when measuring belt tensions.
1.10 Some
of
the
adjustments require
the
printing
of
the
font
identification charac-
ter. This character
is
printed when
the
printer
is
running and
the
TEST switch is placed in
the
ON
position. The associated printer cover Interlock
switch must be disabled (bypassed) for printer
operation.
1.11 All tolerances in
the
adjustments in this
section unless otherwise stated, are in
inches.
1.12 When a requirement specifies a disen-
gaged clutch,
the
clutch
must
be fully
latched so
that
the
clutch shoes are completely
disengaged from
the
clutch drum.
To
become
fully latched,
the
trip lever
(or
stop
arm,
must
engage
the
clutch shoe lever, and
the
clutch disc
must rotate far enough
to
permit
the
latchlever
to
fall into
the
notch
in
the
clutch disc.
1.13 When rotating
the
clutch shaft
of
the
printer
by
hand,
the
clutch does
not
fully
disengage
upon
reaching its
stop
position.
In
order
to
relieve
the
drag
on
the
clutch
drum
and
permit
the
shaft
to
rotate
freely, apply pressure
ISS 3, SECTION 582-210-700
to
the
stop
lug
on
the
clutch disc with a screw-
driver until
the
latchlever falls
into
its
notch
on
the
clutch disc. The internal expansion clutch
is
then
fully disengaged. This procedure should be
followed before placing
the
printer in its cabinet
and switching
on
the
power.
1.14
When engaged,
the
clutch shoe lever
is
unlatched (tripped), and
the
clutch shoes
are wedged against the clutch drum.
1.15
Lubricate the printer
just
prior
to
placing
in service
or
before·
putting
it
in storage.
The printer should be relubricated
after
it
has
been in service a few weeks. Thereafter, lubricate
the mechanisms every 2,000 hours
of
running
time
or
one year, whichever occurs first.
1.16 The general lubrication requirements con-
sist
of
using KS-7470 oil
at
all locations
where
the
use
of
oil is indicated and Mobile
No.2
grease
on
all surfaces where grease
is
indicated.
Thoroughly saturate
the
felt oilers and remove all
excess oil
by
wiping lightly with a clean cloth.
The friction surfaces
of
all moving parts should
be thoroughly lubricated.
1.17 Symbols 01, 02, 03, etc, refer .to
1,
2,
3,
etc,
drops
of
oil. The following list
of
symbols applies
to
the
lubrication instructions:
o Oil KS-7470.
G Apply thin film
of
Mobile
No.2
(145867) grease.
S Saturate felt oilers, washers and wicks
with oil.
D Keep dry,
no
lubricant permitted.
1.10
Overlubrication which would allow oil
to
drip
or
grease
to
be thrown
on
other
parts
should be avoided. Capillary action and vapori-
zation
tend
to
keep a thin film
of
oil
on
the
mechanisms. This prevents
rust
and provides
sufficient lubrication
to
many points.
1.19
Closed ball bearings
do
not
require lubri-
cation. All open ball bearings should be
packed with grease (TKS-103,
195298).

To Measure
Momentarily disengage clutch
by
pulling against shoe release arm. After reengaging
the
clutch momen-
tarily apply
16
ounces
of
tension
on
shoe release arm in a direction
to
give a maximum gap.
Rotate
clutch disc in a direction
to
close
the
gap with sufficient force
to
overcome
the
disc spring tension until
clutch disc
is
at
rest against its positive stop. While holding clutch disc against its stop, measure gap be-
tween shoe release arm and stop lug
of
the
clutch disc.
To
Adjust
Loosen
two
plate clamp screws friction tight.
Rotate
clutch disc until
the
requirement
is
met. Tighten clamp plate screws.
Note: This adjustment
is
to
be
made before
the
clutch assembly
is
assembled to
the
line
feed mechanism mounting plate and before
the
plastic
output
pulley
is
installed.
To
Check
the
Requirement When
the
Clutch
Assembly
is
Installed in a Unit:
Hold
the
clutch
drum
pulley
to
prevent
it
from
moving. Trip
the
clutch magnet. While holding
the
clutch
drum
pulley from rotating momen-
tarily apply
16
ounces to shoe release arm in a
direction
to
give a maximum gap.
Rotate
clutch
drum
pulley in a direction
to
close
the
gap with
sufficient force
to
take
up
all
the
play. While
holding clutch
drum
pulley in this position
measure
the
gap.

the
paper
guide
and
the
paper-out

biased
against
the

lamp should be ON
or
an
