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 reel guide arm onto reel hanger bar to hold roll against reel holder arm to ensure
it is held straight.
(Hex wrench, reel guide arm and spool included.)
Thread the liner under the guide rod, between the hold down 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 guide on guide rod with edge of liner to
keep material feeding straight.
Hold Down:
Using the upper thumbscrew on the side of the label dispenser, adjust the hold down 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.
