Knife Drive
The timing of the S52, S53, S54
control switches on the crank-
shaft is explained by a chart in
the "Knife Control" section (con-
trol switches).
Theproperfunctioningofthecon-
trolswitchescanbecheckedfrom
the service menu (I/O Test).
S53
- Knife-down travel.
-Clamp locking whilethe knife is
coming down.
S54
- Checking the UDC.
- Emergency shut-off in case of
S52 failure.
The gap shown in the timing
chart (switching distance) be-
tween S54 and S53 should be
1/3to1/2ofaflywheelturn.For
thispurpose,energizetheclutch

The cam of S52 should be set
sothatthemachinewouldstop
at the upper dead centre and
thecamfollowerofS54comes
to stop within the first third of
its cam length.
When the knife beam runs over
the UDC (S54 no longer oper-
atedatstopposition),anysubse-
quent cut triggering is disabled.
The display reads Error 28:
Safety Module Detecting Error.
Bypressingthe"C"key,concrete
Error 7 appears: Knife Overrun.
After turning off and on the ma-
chine,thesubsequentcutcanbe
restarted by the knife pushbut-
tons.
If there is another overrun at the
UDC,slightpre-stoppingcorrec-
tioncan beperformed byturning
forward the entire cam package
within the permissible range.
If such correction by the above-
mentioned cam shifting is not
successful, i. e. if there is still
overrun, checking the clutch/
brakeassemblyoftheknifedrive
should,underanycircumstances,
be checked.
The control switches have the
followingfunction:

-Takingoverknifeup-movement
fromthelowerdeadcentre(LDC).
- Deactivating the light guard ef-
fect.
- Stopping the knive travel to-
wards the upper dead centre
(UDC).

and Brake Assembly
System Design (Fig. 3)
Armature disk 3 provided with
brake lining 1 or clutch lining 2,
respectively, is axially movable
on a spline bushing. It is forced

When the clutch is energized,
armature disk 3 is attracted by
the magnetic field of coil body 7
and pressed against friction ring
