INSTRUCTIONS FOR 50 KILO AND 60 KILO PRESS SHIM RETRO-FIT
These instructions are for adding shims under the main bell air cylinder on 50 kilo and 60 kilo
presses. Before beginning to add shims below the air cylinder, it is necessary to familiarize
yourself with all safety precautions in the equipment's manuals; please observe all safety
precautions. It is also imperative that these instructions, including the attached drawing
are read and understood before beginning the retrofit. While working on any equipment,
tag and lockout the power. Also, inventory the parts received with the kit.
Please read through these instructions thoroughly before beginning implementation of the
shims to the main bell air cylinder.
Some of the tools, which will be needed to perform this product enhancement, are as follows:
SAE size wrenches, Allen wrenches, lineup pin, and assorted hand tools.
MILNOR will provide installation labor costs for placing shims and replacing the up-lock
assembly. We anticipate this labor not to exceed 10 man-hours per machine, i.e. one man at ten
hours or two men at five hours each for a total of ten hours per retrofit.
INSTRUCTIONS:
We recommend that a qualified maintenance employee or dealer personnel perform this
product enhancement.
1. Using a permanent marker, trace the outline of the main bell air cylinder onto the upper
cross-member. This will give an outline for centering the main bell air cylinder onto the
upper cross-member at the completion of the project (See Figure 1).
2. Operate the dome from the up position to the down position. As the dome makes contact
with the bed, check to see if the dome meets the bed flush or side touches the bed first
(the dome is cocked in relation to the bed).
3. Remove the diaphragm from the dome (See Milnor Membrane Press SERVICE Manual).
4. Manually operate the dome to the down position.
5. Loosen the bolts on the coupling, which joins the air cylinder shaft to the top of the dome
downlock hub assembly (See Figure 2).
6. Remove this coupling from the shaft.
7. Place the 12 bolt-hole coupler shim on top of the dome downlock hub assembly (with
bolt holes properly aligned).
