1 Introduction
• Before mounting the delivered components disconnect the printer from the power supply and close the shutoff
valve of the applicator.
• Only connect the device to other devices which have a protective low voltage.
• Switch off all affected devices (computer, printer, accessories) before connecting or disconnecting.
• In operation, moving parts are easily accessible.
This applies especially for the zone, where the pad is moved between the starting and the labelling position.
During operation do not reach into that zone and keep long hair, loose clothes, and jewelry away. Before any
alterations are undertaken in those areas, close the compressed air shutoff valve.
• The device may only be used in a dry environment, do not expose it to moisture (water splashes, sprays and mist)
• Do not use the device in an explosive atmosphere.
• Do not use the device close to high-voltage power lines.
• Perform only those actions described in this service manual.
Work going beyond this may only be performed by trained personnel or service technicians.
• Unauthorized interference with electronic modules or their software can cause malfunctions.
• Otherunauthorizedworkon,ormodicationstothedevicecanalsoendangeroperationalsafety.
• Alwayshaveserviceworkdonebyaqualiedworkshop,wherethepersonnelhavethetechnicalknowledgeand
tools required to do the necessary work.
• There are various warning stickers on the device. They draw your attention to danger. Warning stickers may
therefore not be removed.

2 Product Description
2.1 Important Features
• The supporting air and the vacuum as well as the speed of the cylinder are adjustable. That way the applicator
can be adapted to different label materials and sizes.
• To avoid contamination within the vacuum channels they are cleaned by air pressure impulse at the end of each
application.
• For operation in a system the I/O interface of the printer can be used.

3 Operation
3.1 Standard Operation
Check all external connections.
Load the material.
Open the shutoff valve.
!
Attention!
Ensure that the pad is not covered by a label when switching on the printer-applicator system.
Otherwise the vacuum sensor may be calibrated faultily.
Switch on the printer.
i
Note!
If the pad is not in the start position when the printer is switched on an error message appears on the
display.
Press pause button at the printer.
The applicator moves into the start position and is ready for work.
Press the feed button on the printer.
A synchronization feed is initiated. The processed labels have to be removed manually. After a few seconds the
printer carries out a short backfeed to position the front edge of the next label at the printing line.
i
Note!
This synchronizing also has to be carried out when the print job has been interrupted with the cancel button.
Synchronizing is not necessary when the print head was not lifted between print jobs. This also applies if
the printer was powered off between print jobs.
Start a print job.
Start the labelling process via PLC interface.
Error messages during labelling process are shown in the display of the printer. „4 Error Messages“
3.2 Cleaning
!
Attention!
Never use solvent and/or abrasive.

Clean the outside surfaces with multi purpose cleaner.
Remove dust particles and leftover label pieces with a soft
brush and/or vacuum cleaner.
The slide foil (1) requires regular cleaning as most of the
dirt will accumulate here.
