I was wondering if there’s any safe way to limit the amount the vibrator oscillates on the Vandercook 4?
It’s for a business card logo about an inch wide…
Thank you.

It can only be done by removing the crescent from the worm gear inside the oscillator tube.
To remove the crescent:
1) disengage form rollers
2) rotated oscillator tube to the operator’s side to cover the worm gear;
3) loosen set screw on the end of the tube,
4) remove the holder screw on face of tube;
5) push oscillator tube away from worm gear to reveal the crescent.
When form rollers are engaged the tube will spin in place. There may be some slight lateral movement.
