SP15 oscillator problem - Posted April 19, 2008

I’m having a problem with my steel roller (the large one that oscillates) binding against the inner form roller when the carriage returns. After returning one or two inches it binds regardless of location, i.e.: If I lift and lower the oscillating roll, it still binds at any point on the return trip. One side of the oscillating steel roll (the side opposite the operator) rises higher than the operator side (the rectangular bar at the end of the roll rises in its slot) and the carriage stops. Any suggestions on how I might resolve this problem? As a work around I’m lifting the oscillating roll each time on the return trip. Sorry I don’t have the terminology correct. Thank you.
