HOW TO SET THE SHIM WHEELS 
• 
First, determine the thickness of the board that you 
will use for mounting. 
• 
You must first raise the top roller and then press 
down and turn both the shim wheels until the 
desired measurement corresponds with the 
thickness of board being used. 
• 
Lower the top roller once the shim wheels are 
adjusted. 
WARNING! Too much pressure can crush the 
board being used and even damage the top and 
bottom rollers. Normally, a press of .025” 
(0.6mm) is sufficient. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Figure 5. Shim Wheel Adjustment 
SHIM WHEEL SETTINGS 
Whenever you mount onto a board, etc., it is important 
to adjust the rollers to create a gap nearly equal to the 
thickness of the board being used. This is done so that 
anything passing between the rollers will receive the 
right amount of pressure.
