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.
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
fi lm 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.
The AccuGlide™ 3 High Speed 2 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.
