Mount/Demont Tool Head Adjustment
To Adjust Tool Head Lift
Shoulder screw (ref.1) sets the tool head lift for
metal duckheads – no adjustment required. Place
shim 85606345 on screw if using a plastic duck-
head.
To Adjust Lock Tightness
With lock handle unlocked, loosen jam nut (ref. 2)
and adjust pin (ref. 3) until a slight firmness is
obtained, then tighten jam nut and check. Also
recheck tool head lift at this time.
