When putting the die, you should pay attention to holding the die flat so that it will not be stuck when you put it in crookedly and damage the whole wall.
Align the upper punch and lower punch
Turn the hand wheel by hand, make the upper punch descend slowly into the hole of the middle die, and observe whether there is collision or friction, if collision or friction occurs, loosen the middle die plate fixing screws (two), adjust the position of the middle die plate fixing, make the upper punch enter the hole of the middle die, then tighten the middle die plate fixing screws, so adjust until the upper punch head enters the middle die without collision or friction, then the installation is qualified.
