The Model 47 is a platform that provides greater versatility than the Model 98. Because of the round column, the "sliding head" can be moved up or down for different size parts.
The Model 47 can also be used for light punching, center punching and similar purposes. Round parts can stamped using the "V" block. An "L" Gauge is standard and can be moved "in" and "out" to provide a locating point.
Operation
The method of operation is similar to the Model 98. The operation handle is pulled down until the marking device is in contact with the part. The shank is then struck with a hammer. This method reduces any miss-alignment or illegible stamping by holding the marking device square with the part.
