4.2 Manual Feed-to-Length (FTL) Mode
The manual feed-to-length (FTL) setting allows the operator to dispense a preset length of material by
activating the foot pedal briefly (i.e. “tapping” the foot pedal). Once the foot pedal is “tapped” (activated
briefly) the machine will dispense a preset length of material. The operator must repeat the process to
receive additional, preset lengths of material. In this mode, the foot pedal also acts as an override. To
receive a length of material greater than the preset length, press and hold the foot pedal until the desired
length is received. The preset length can be adjusted (using the add/subtract buttons on head assembly)
as needed.

4.3 Auto Feed-to-Length (A-FTL) Mode
The auto feed-to-length (A-FTL) setting allows the operator to dispense a preset length of material. Once
the paper has been removed, the machine will automatically dispense and tear another preset length of
material. This process will continue as long as the feature is active. The foot pedal also acts as an override
in this mode. To receive a length of material greater than the preset length, press and hold the foot pedal
until the desired length is received. The preset length can be adjusted (using the add/subtract buttons on
head assembly) as needed.
