Abstract
A guiding apparatus is disclosed for guiding an extended nip press blanket relative to a pressing shoe. The apparatus includes a nose member which is pivotally-connected to the shoe for guiding the blanket relative to the shoe. An actuator is secured to the shoe for pivoting the nose member relative to the shoe. A connector extends between the actuator and the nose member for connecting the actuator to the nose member such that when the actuator is actuated, the nose member is skewed relative to the shoe so that the blanket is guided laterally relative to the shoe as the blanket moves over, and in contact with, the nose member.
