An apparatus for positioning a smoothing roll which is mounted so as to be displaceable by a cantilever arm against the reeling mandrel of a strip coiler and to be adjustable particularly with a roll changing head against the reeling mandrel with the use of a force application unit. The roll change head includes a swivel arm which can be swivelled in a joint and is drivable to carry out a swivelling motion, wherein a steel roll is mounted at the free end of the swivel arm in a bearing, and an adjusting arm supporting the smoothing roll is mounted at the free end of the swivel arm, wherein the adjusting arm includes a force-controllable adjusting system for adjusting the smoothing roll against the strip coiler or the outer tube surface thereof, and wherein the force application unit for displacing the cantilever arm is a distance-controllable adjusting unit.
