Abstract: The present invention is a position adjustment method for head units arrayed in a predetermined width direction attachably to and detachably from a base member. A position of a second head unit in the width direction and a rotation direction are respectively adjusted while the second head unit is engaging a tip part of a reference pin. More particularly, a width direction adjuster moves the second head unit in the width direction with a first head unit kept fixed to the base member. In this way, the gap between the first head unit and the second head unit is adjusted. Further, a rotation direction adjuster moves the second head unit in the orthogonal direction at a separation position distant from the reference pin. In this way, a rotation direction position of the second head unit with respect to the tip part of the reference pin is adjusted.
