Two vial plates are supplied with the applicator. The one 
marked UNCAPPED VIALS is used when applying labels to vials 
that have not been capped. Vials that have been capped will not 
fit in this plate. A second plate, marked CAPPED VIALS, allows 
for the extra length of the cap. While uncapped vials will fit in 
this plate, they may not be properly positioned when the label is 
applied. 

Loading labels

The

 

following instructions assume that Agilent

 

labels are used.

1

Remove the screws holding the side plate. See 

Figure 6

.

2

Remove the side plate and discard the empty roller (if any).

3

Unwrap a new roll of labels. Use care because the roll will 
tend to unwind.

4

Place a new roll of labels on the three posts. The labels must 
be on the outside of the roll and the roll must feed from the 
bottom. See 

Figure 6

.

5

Replace the side plate and the screws.

6

Verify that the correct vial plate (CAPPED or UNCAPPED) is 
in place. If not, remove the four screws holding the top and 
bottom plates, make the change, and replace the screws.
