Using 5/32" (4mm) hex wrench, adjust reel holder arm to vertical.
Place the label roll on the 1" (25mm) reel hanger bar.
*If roll has 3" (76.2mm) core, use plastic spool*
Slide “O” ring onto reel hanger bar to hold roll against reel holder arm to ensure it is
held straight.
(Hex wrench, O-ring and spool included.)
Thread the liner under the guide rod, between the hold down brush and the strip plate,
then back under the strip plate. Lay the liner across the slot in the take-up hub. Slide the
lock rod into the slot to secure the liner. Align shaft collar on guide rod with edge of
liner to keep material feeding straight.
Hold Down Brush:
Using the upper thumbscrew on the side of the machine, adjust the hold down brush for
tensioning.
For best results, labels should be pressed firmly against the strip plate. If labels are held
too tightly, they will cause excessive drag on the motor.
Photosensor:
The photosensor can be adjusted in any direction to accommodate virtually any label.
Loosening the lower thumbscrew allows the photosensor to swivel and sets the overhang
distance of the label over the strip plate. When the label is being fed the correct
distance, tighten the lower thumbscrew.
Loosen the two screws on the front of the sensor holder to align the photosensor with
the center of the label. If there are two or more labels across, align the photosensor
with the last label to be removed. When these two screws are tightened, the machine
is set.
