SPECIFICATIONS:
Power Supply: Input: 220-240VAC – 50-60Hz. Output: 24VDC – 4.17A.
SET-UP AND USE:
1. Place S-100-SP Label Slitter so that it is perpendicular to the web of labels to be slit.
2. Loosen the Black Knob holding the red Blade Cover Shield and rotate the Black Knob
assembly approximately one-half turn so it is facing down and out of the way.
3. Raise the Shield to the vertical position.
4. See WARNING NOTICE above. Rotate the blade holder shaft slightly clockwise to lift
the Blade Holders from the round white nylon Fixed Paper Guide.
5. Being careful to avoid contact with the cutting blades feed the label web under the
Rotating Paper Guide and over the Fixed Paper Guide. Observe the Paper Path Label
on the S-100-SP.
6. Adjust the position of the Rings on the Rotating and Fixed Paper Guides to the width
of your Label Web. Only finger tighten the Screws. If you have the PC-2 Preset
Counter, the labels must pass through the Sensor Slot.
7. Pull the Label Web through and affix it to the Label Rewind Core on the Label
Rewinder.
8. Being careful to avoid contact with the cutting Blades, adjust the position of the Blade
Holders and as desired. To do this, loosen the white Nylon set screw of the Blade
Holders in or out as needed. Finger tighten the White Nylon Set Screw to hold the
adjustment. Do not over tighten.
9. Extend the cutting Blades as required using the black click-stop adjustment on the
side of each Blade Holder. THE BLADE TIP MUST EXTEND WELL PAST THE
ROUND WHITE NYLON ROD SO THE CUTTING BLADE ITSELF IS RESTING ON
THE WHITE NYLON.
10. Being careful to avoid contact with the cutting Blades, rotate the Blade Holders down
until the cutting blades rest on the Fixed Paper Guide. The Blades must pierce the
Label Web to be slit.
11. Now lower the red Blade Shield onto the Blade Holders.
12. Secure the red Blade Shield by rotating the small Black Knob assembly into the slot on
the red Blade Shield and tightening the small Black Knob until it is snug. The Blades
will press into the Nylon bar.
CAUTION: DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
NOTE: If the red Blade Shield does not press on all Blade Holders equally, loosen the
mounting nuts for the Blade Shield Hinge on the Chassis and reposition them until the
Blade Shield is "level" with the top of the Blade Holders.
13. Start the Label Rewinder to provide moderate tension on the slit Labels. Adjust the
speed of the Label Rewinder as required. See the CAT-2 User Manual for details.
14. To make fine adjustments to the position of the Blades over the Label Web as a set,
use the large black adjustment knob marked “LIFT BLADES TO ADJUST.” NOTE:
YOU MUST ALWAYS LIFT THE BLADES FROM THE LABEL WEB TO MAKE
ADJUSTMENTS. USE CAUTION TO AVOID CONTACT WITH THE CUTTING
BLADES.
15. Turn the Pinch Roller Lever Arm so the Pinch Roller moves up and clamps the Label
Web to the Rubber Capstan. Turn on the S-100-SP to begin slitting.
16. When slitting is finished, be sure to turn the Pinch Roller Lever to unclamp the Rubber
Capstan to prevent flat spots from forming on the Capstan. FLAT SPOTS ON THE
PINCH ROLLER ARE NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
17. When the slitting action becomes impaired because of dull Cutting Blades, the Blades
can be clicked down within their holders to expose an unused area of the cutting
blade. In this way, blade life is greatly extended. If desired, the used up part of the
Blade can be snapped off at one of the score lines.
18. When the cutting blades are completely worn out, replace them with LABELMATE
HSB-10 High Speed Cutting Blades.
OPTIONAL PRESET COUNTER SET_UP:
1. For Auto-Stop, plug the Control Cable (with 3.5mm plugs at each end) between the
External Halt Jack on the back of the S-100-SP and the “EXTERNAL HALT
CONTROL” Jack on the CAT-2 Label Rewinder.
2. The Counter is pre-programmed as a Count-Up Preset Counter. For other modes,
refer to the Counter Data Sheet that is part of the documentation package.
3. Successively press the Buttons below each digit to enter the desired count and then
press the Red Reset/Enter Button.
4. Pull a short strip of labels back and forth through the Label Sensor Gap and observe
the count on the Counter decreasing.
5. When the preset number of Labels is reached, the Counter will stop the S-100-SP
and the External Halt Control Relay will open, serving as a “Halt” Command for the
CAT-2 Label Rewinder. Press the red Reset/Enter Button to reset the count & restart
the CAT-2.
WARNING!
Use caution and common sense to avoid personal injury or
damage to clothing when working with cutting blades or
around exposed blade surfaces.
