Heidelberg Windmill Gripper Bar Adjustment Tools

Hi All

Does anyone have the two tools for bending the gripper bar bracket on a windmill?

If so would you be willing to part with them? If not could you provide some pictures, preferably with a ruler next to them, for reference? I need to adjust mine and shimming is not proving satisfactory.

Thanks

 

Hello, I once had a retired Heidelberg technician visit my shop to bend the gripper bracket for me. He kept his tool from the old days. It was a long metal bar (Perhaps 6-8 feet but I don't remember exactly) and the end had a sort of hook so that it could go in through the hole in the bracket. Then with all that leverage he was able to gently ben the bracket. I read somewhere that the metal used to make the bracket was soft so that it could be bent.
