Measurement

Take-up lever endplay refers to the left or right play of the take-up levers on the take-up lever shaft.

Measure the endplay by sliding the take-up levers all the way to the right and measure the distance between the right edge of the last take-up lever to the retaining clip.  This distance cannot exceed the range of 0.030-0.040” [0.75-1mm].

Adjustment

Adjustment of the take-up lever endplay is done by loosening the screws that clamp the take-up lever shaft in the mounting blocks and gently tapping the take-up lever shaft in the direction needed to adjust it.

If you loosen the screws on the take-up lever mounting blocks, ensure they are re-torqued to Melco Torque Specifications.
