central pin and the pads should be of 1+3 tenths.
To obtain such a clearance, proceed as follows:
A) Loosen screw (9)
B) Tighten grub screw (10) until reaching a mode-
rate tightening of the pads against the central pin
by using the supplied Allen wrench
C) From the position reached, turn the Allen wrench
in the opposite sense (unscrew the grub screw) for
about 1/8 of a turn (45°)
D) To lock the grub screw (10), tighten screw (9)
N.B.: Repeat operations of points A-B-C-D each
time a clearance reset is wanted for better functio-
ning. It is recommended to carry out such opera-
tions every 20-30 hours operation.

never lock the central pin with the
adjustment pads; always leave a clea-
rance of at least 0,1 mm.
