Hey guys, had to get a new metering roller for damp on unit 2. Put it in and ran fine but could not get it to wash up on the right side. I then proceeded to adjust the rollers and couldn't really get a good stripe on left side of meter roller. Adjusted all rollers as good as I could and everything went to crap. Adjustments are so out of whack. Now I can't get the dampening unit to wash up at all. Can anyone give me ideas on how to start from scratch with the adjustments? I've got a couple huge 2 color jobs this week and I don't have any techs near me. Any suggestions or solutions would be absolutely amazing! Thanks guys!!!!

Take it out of the machine & stripe it by eye on a flat bench.
