Abstract
A press ram (6) is coupled to an applicator ram (20) to drive it, by means of a claw (54) which engages beneath an adaptor head (34) on the applicator ram (20). The claw (54) is formed on a slide (46) which is vertically shiftable in a guideway (42) in the press ram (6), the position of the slide (46) in its guideway (42) being adjustable by means of adjustment screw (62) from which projects eccentrically, a spigot (66) which engages in a slot (50) in the slide (46). The adjustment screw (62) can be rotated by means of a tool blade (B) to raise the slide (46) to take up slack between the press ram (6) and the applicator ram (20). A set screw (74) is provided for securing the slide (46) in its position of adjustment.
