Abstract:
A line striper comprises a sprayer secured to a frame, and a guided wheel assembly rotatably mounted to the frame. The guided wheel assembly includes an adjustment disk with screw notches along its outer diameter, an alignment plate coaxially surrounding and abutting the adjustment disk, alignment screws threaded through the alignment plate to engage screw notches on the adjustment disk, and an antirotation lock. The screws set a rotational alignment of the alignment plate relative to the adjustment disk, and the adjustment disk is coupled via a spindle axle to a guide wheel. The antirotation lock engages a locking feature on the alignment plate, thereby fixing the orientation of the guide wheel relative to the wheeled frame at an angle determined by the rotational alignment.
