    AB DICK 360 Problem

    Thanks for your input. I do have the hard rubber water waver on this machine and have for as long as I've owned this press. I have another machine which is now a parts only machine which had the copper roller. To be quite frank, I could never get it to print well. We were able to get the...

    AB DICK 360 Problem

    I believe we have the problem solved. Adjustment made to the bearing in the non operator side form roller block and a change of the water waver. Finally we were able to successfully run a job on this old 360. Pdan - our 360 has the superaquamatic with a rubber water roller and chrome roller...

    AB DICK 360 Problem

    I was able to finally figure out the end play and adjust that. It was far too tight. We can now get movement and good stripe. We still get a dry spot in the middle of the plate but have made some adjustments to the aquamatic and are hopeful we have the problem solved but not holding our...

    AB DICK 360 Problem

    I don't see a way to adjust the shaft. It is all one piece with no set screws. Both shafts are exactly the same. The lower form roller is larger and I've been careful to ensure I have the smaller one on top. I put the old roller back in and it works ok (meaning it will move towards the plate)...

    AB DICK 360 Problem

    So I've adjusted the eccentrics so that the roller doesn't touch the plate at all. Thinking that maybe I have something backwards. Still when I engage the handle I get absolutely no movement. The odd thing is we had it working well on Tuesday night but it was late so we decided to go home...

    AB DICK 360 Problem

    Greetings, I have an issue with my old 360 having finally isolated the problem after many weeks of struggles. The upper form roller will not engage when you turn the handle to ink. When the roller is not in place the mechanism moves without a problem moving the form roller into place against...

    Hamada 600 - looking for ideas

    Thanks for the response. We did get some penetrating oil and have been able to get it freed up. Our plates are pretty standardized and we don't often have the need to adjust it. I think that is what caused the problem. We have added a step to our clean up protocol to prevent this from...

    Hamada 600 - looking for ideas

    Hello, This group is always so good to answer my questions and I rarely have any answers for anyone else. My apologies for that. I have an issue with the plate cylinder on my Hamada 600. Not sure what happened or how this happened... We can not move the plate cylinder when we need to adjust...

    InDesign Error- You may not have permission....

    This happens to me on occasion. Be sure when you are placing the document that there is a check mark in the "Show Import Options". I never have that issue when that box is checked. Good Luck Angela

    I guess you all should see how my partner "jury rigged" the machine so we could finish this large folding job. Using a piece of pvc pipe, a variable speed drill, a spade bit, a coffee can and some duct tape he was able to get the machine to run at 6000 rph. While not the best solution it served...

    Of course you do. My book failed to have the page that showed the Feeder Drive Belt. That belt had broken, actually....it disintegrated. New belt on its way. Again thanks to all who offered their assistance. Angela

    MBO t49 MBO t49 Obviously not the right photo. Hopefully this is the correct photo. The shaft is not spinning the feeder wheel in production mode. I have vacuum but no rotation to feed the paper. Thanks Angela
