"Anyway, sometimes the thickness of the rubber (as opposed to the width)
seems to vary so that I have to tear apart the two cut sections after
they have been ejected from the pinch rollers."
 
Cal,
 
If there is a web between the two pieces of rubber, the cutting wheel faces
are not in contact. You need to adjust the cutting wheels to lightly touch
each other. The non cranked wheel has a flat brass spring on the opposite
side from the crank that has a tightening screw. Tighten the screw just enough
to feel a little bit of drag when turning the crank.
 
When I first got the Harlan stripper I found the strip width did not
correspond to the dial setting. I measured with my 0.01" scale and estimated a
formula for the setting. After stripping about a dozen motors of different
widths I plotted a graph of dial setting against strip width. This gave me an
exact formula for setting the dials to get the width I wanted.
