Intended Use
AccuGlide™ 4 Upper Taping Head - 2 and 3 inch, Type 11800
The intended use of the AccuGlide™ 4 High Performance - 2 and 3 Inch is to apply a
“C” clip of Scotch®pressure-sensitive lm box sealing tape to the top and/or bottom
center seam of regular slotted containers.
The compact size and simplicity of the taping head also makes it suitable for mounting in

Receiving And Handling
After the taping head assembly has
been unpackaged, examine the unit
for damage that might have occurred
during transit. If damage is evident,
le a damage claim immediately with
the transportation company and also
notify your 3M Representative.
Installation Guidelines
The taping head assembly can be
used in converting existing or in
custom made machinery.
It can be mounted for top taping
or bottom taping. Refer to “Box Size
Capacities,” as well as Figure 2-1
in the Specications section, for
following points making installations:
Important – Always conduct a hazard
review to determine appropriate
guarding requirements when the
installation is in an application
other than 3M-Matic™equipment
1. The box conveying system
must positively propel the box in
a continuous motion, not exceeding
0.81 m/s [160 feet per minute],
past the taping head assembly
since the box motion actuates
the taping mechanism.
2. If a dancer arm is present, pull the
shaft until the latches stops it in place.
This will prevent the dancer arm from
interfering with the reloading process.
3. Information is provided for the physical
dimensions and mounting locations for
both the 2” and 3” Taping Heads in
Figure 2-1.
4. Turn lock lever away from locking position.
Remove spent core. Reload with a new
roll (make sure the adhesive side of tape
faces toward incoming cartons).
Return lock lever to secure position after
reloading tape. Also check and make
sure the spring lock was not bent during
this process.
Note: Make sure lock lever is in correct
position during and after loading.
Pushing or pulling a roll of tape while
lock is engaged may bend spring lock.
If lock is deformed, the lock must be
bent back to a straight position.
5. Press release latch on dancer arm
(if present) so dancer arm roller rests
between new tape roll and tape thread.
Tape Leg Length
Taping heads are factory set to apply
tab length 2” (48mm) to tape leg.
Both upper and lower heads must be
set to apply the same tape leg length.
Also, conveyor speed at which the
product moves through taping heads
aects the leading and trailing tape leg
length. See “Adjustments section -
Leading Tape Leg Length Adjustment.”
Tape Width Adjustment
Taping heads are factory set to apply
48mm [2 inch] wide tape. If it is
necessary to align the tape or to apply
narrower tapes, refer to “Adjustments –
Tape Web Alignment” set-up procedure.
Caution
• To reduce the risk associated with
muscle strain:
- Use proper body mechanics when
removing or installing taping heads
that are moderately heavy or may be
considered awkward to lift.
• To reduce the risk associated with
sharp blade hazards:
- Keep hands and ngers away from
tape cutoblades under orange blade
guards. The blades are extremely sharp.

Operation (continued)
It is recommended that the detailed
instructions and sketches in this manual
be referred to the rst few times the
taping head is loaded/threaded until the
operator becomes thoroughly familiar
with the tape loading operation.
Note: If practical, remove tape roll before
removing taping head from
machine to minimize weight.
Note: Threading can usually be accomplished
without removing the tape applicator
from the case sealer, due to the open
design. Arrow shaped stickers along
the rollers should direct threading of tape.
Tape Loading – Upper Taping Head
1. Place the upper taping head in a
convenient working position.
2. Using Figures 3-2/3-3/3-4/3-5 and 3-6.
Position tape roll so adhesive side of
tape faces front of taping head as it’s
pulled from supply roll.
3. Thread tape over dancer arm roller
(if dancer arm used).
Guide tape around tension wrap roller
(Position 1) then around one-way
tension roller (Position 2).
4. Pull it over knurled roller so
adhesive side is in contact with
this roller (Position 3).
5. Pull tape down over tab adjustment
roller. Pull it under knurled roller and
between crescent tape guide and
support pad (Position 4) The tape
should extend ½” - 13mm) past the
applying/compression roller).
6. Cut away any excess tape.
Important – Do not cut against apply roller -
roller damage could occur.
Tape Loading – Lower Taping Head
See upper head instructions.
• To reduce the risk associated with
sharp blade hazards:
- Keep hands and ngers away from
tape cutoblades under orange blade
guards. The blades are extremely sharp.

Maintenance
The AccuGlide™ 4 High Performance 2 and
3 Inch Taping Head has been designed
for long, trouble free service. The taping
head will perform best when it receives
routine maintenance and cleaning.
Taping head components that fail or
wear excessively should be promptly
repaired or replaced to prevent damage
to other portions of the head or product.

Metric Hex Keys - Ball end set recommended.
2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, 4mm, 5mm, and 6mm.

Blade Replacement
Upper and Lower Taping Heads – Figure 4-1
1. Remove Blade Screw (position 1).
2. Remove blade cover plate and blade
(position 2).
3. Replace blade and cover plate.
4. Reinsert and tighten screw.
Note – Check the blade position
to insure proper clearance
between blade and guard by
slowly pivoting blade guard back.
Blade Guard
The blade guard covers the blade
whenever a box is not being taped.
Periodically check to be sure the
blade guard is functioning properly
and returning to cover the blade.
Replace any defective parts.
Blade Grease Pad
To reduce adhesive build-up, the taping
heads are equipped with a factory pre-
lubricated felt grease pad that provides
a lm of grease on the cutting edge of
the blade. Blade maintenance should
include keeping felt pad saturated with
grease. Should tape adhesive build-up
occur on blade, carefully wipe clean with
light solvent or grease soaked cloth.
• To reduce the risk associated with
sharp blade hazards:
- Keep hands and ngers away from
tape cutoblades under orange blade
guards. The blades are extremely sharp.
Warning
• To reduce the risk associated with
shear, pinch, and entanglement hazards
- Turn air and electrical supplies o
on associated equipment before
performing any adjustments, mainte-
nance, or servicing the taping heads

head or load tape while the box drive
