I looked at the number today on the T head, it's a T 51 model.

If any of you guys know which model I'm talking about please clue me in on how I can move that bottom clamp. The ones I used before had a knurled rod inside the cylinder that you could roll one way or the other. This one doesn't have one!!!! NOTHING more frustrating than missing those pins by hair!

I'm in a new shop this year and things are going good. The only thing that's weirding me out is that they have a different model of T head that I never seen before. If I got a plate that's a little crooked and I want to skew it, there seems to be no way to move the bottom clamp left or right so I can clamp the bottom. Usually I just repunch some new holes and that seems to work fine, just a pain in the you know where. This T head has two hand levers, no roller knobs, vertical adjust on top.

I agree with you completely about pump maintenance. Another thing that should be stressed is air\vacuum balance and buckle adjustment. Too many newbs think cranking all the adjustments to the max will solve their problems.

It's all about a balancing act for every type of stock.

Buckle is actually the degree of the sucker tubes in relation to the infeed roller. (zero to 15 degrees)

Your doing pretty good with these vids!

If you have ink on your hands, you will always have food on your table!

Vacuum and blower adjustments vary from press to press and are directly related to the condition of the hoses and mostly the compressor intake and exhust filters which should be cleaned at least once a month. I'm happy to see this operator keeping his press clean. If you're going to do instruction videos it would be most helpful to instruct on ink and water balance, PH, roller pressures, proper roller maintenance, etc,etc.

ever bypass cover safety switches or remove the safety bar that's installed in front of the blanket cylinder. It's missing from this press and it prevents things from falling between the blanket and T-hd cylinders and also greatly reduces the possibility of pinching a fingure between the blanket and T-hd.(I'm a service tech for over 20 years and seen some really stupid shit in the name of convenience)

[guitgeo]

At 3:39 when engaging the gears if you meet with ANY resistance use the parent head handwheel to gently and slowly rock the cylinder gears to mesh the blanket gears to the T-hd gears.

If you only use the T-hd once in a while it's better to leave it off. You'll figure that out the first time you try to clean that blanket. There's also a very real pinch factor to consider and lastly please don't
