Maintenance
The AccuGlide™ 3 High Speed 3 inch
Taping Head has been designed for
long, trouble free service. The taping
head will perform best when it
receives routine maintenance and
cleaning. Taping head components
that fail or wear excessively should
be promptly repaired or replaced to
prevent damage to other portions of
the head or to the product.
Blade Replacement
, Upper and Lower
Taping Heads –
Figure 4-1
1. Loosen, but do not remove, the
blade screws (A). Remove and
discard old blade.
2. Mount the new blade (B) with the
beveled side away from the blade
holder.
3. Bottom the blade slots against
the screws (this will position the
blade at the correct angle.)
Tighten the blade screws to
secure the blade.
Note –
Check the blade position
to insure proper clearance
between blade and guard by
slowly pivoting blade guard back.
Blade Guard
The blade guard covers the blade
whenever a box is not being taped.
Periodically check to be sure the
blade guard is functioning properly
and returning to cover the blade.
Replace any defective parts.
Blade Oiler Pad
To reduce adhesive build-up, the
taping heads are equipped with
a factory pre-lubricated felt oiler
pad that provides a film of oil on
the cutting edge of the blade.
Blade maintainance should include
keeping the felt oiler pad saturated
with Silicone.
Should tape adhesive build-up
occur on blade, carefully wipe
clean with an oily cloth.
• To reduce the risk associated with
sharp blade hazards:
- Keep hands and fingers away from
tape cutoff blades under orange blade
guards. The blades are extremely sharp.
Warning
• To reduce the risk associated with
shear, pinch, and entanglement hazards
- T
urn air and electrical supplies off

performing any adjustments, mainte-
nance, or servicing the taping heads
- Never attempt to work on the taping
head or load tape while the box drive
system is running
