Center the Nameplate on the table. Press the
clamp handle down to slide the nameplate into a
new position. Release the clamp handle to lock it in
place. The clamp is fastened to a sliding rectangle
(table gauge assembly), which is tightened by
means of a small thumb screw. The entire table can
be indexed by pressing the space button at the front
of the unit.
CAUTION: When indexing the table, be sure to
grasp the table lightly with your left hand; the table
operates like a typewriter carriage and damage will
result if it is allowed to slam against the limit screw.
Spin the character dial to select the desired
number or letter.
Set marking depth by turning the depth adjust-
ment screw. First, set depth until dial contacts the
nameplate. Then remove the place and make
another 1-1/2 counter clockwise turn to indent the
plate. Turning the screw clockwise makes the
impression shallower.
Move operating handle forward rmly to make
impressions. If the mark is not deep enough, adjust
the depth setting. The handle will return to its
original position, which automatically indexes the
table one notch to the left, placing the nameplate in
position for the next character. Move the handle
forward to backward halfway to leave a blank space
or a space between words.
CAUTION: Forcing the operating handle down or
back will cause damage to the machine.

Operating Flexibility. Your SCHMIDT Nameplate detail press can be
operated eciently by pulling the operating handle from a sitting
position or by pushing the operating handle from a standing position.
Just remember to bring the operating handle to the neutral position -
and not beyond.
To set the plate for stamping a new line of another panel, simply move
the table gauge forward or back to center the locating pointer. For
added exibility, the table gauge can be placed on the right edge of
the table. The clamp is then in front of the dial and plates are gripped
at the bottom, allowing the machine to stamp at the extreme top edge.
With the gauge in this position, the throat capacity is also increased to
4.5 inches.
CHANGING THE MARKING DIAL:
1. Remove screw in the center of the dial and take o dial, knob and
pointer. Place new dial and pointer in position and tighten into place
with retaining screw.
2. Slide table to extreme right and remove table limit screw. Return
table to left to expose spacing mechanism. Remove escapement wheel
and replace with one that matches correct dial size. Replace the limit
screw.
3. Return table to marking position.
EXTRA DIALS: All dial assemblies are interchangeable and include
Knob, Pointer and Escapement Wheel. Sizes available include 3/32”,
1/8”, 3/16”and 1/4”
