Abstract
A tool mounting arrangement for a track press includes a bracket assembly for lateral and vertical adjustment of the tool mounting to compensate for variations in the spacing of the track components due to different amounts of wear. The bracket assembly includes a tool mounting plate which is connected to a reaction bar by an adjustment plate and a pair of brackets. A pair of threaded shafts penetrate the brackets and bear against the adjustment plate for moving the tool mounting plate vertically. A threaded rod is connected to the reaction bar and an adjustment wheel on the rod is in engagement with the adjustment plate for moving the tool mounting plate laterally. A pair of spring loaded apparatus maintain a preselected downwardly directed force on the bracket assembly.
