Movement of the Pad
The applicator 4214 has different modes for picking up labels. The position of the pad can also be adjusted to suit
different applications of the labels.
The standard position of the pad will be described in
Service Manual. The take up mode is mainly dependant
on the size and material of the label. In the standard settings the applicator will ignore the interim steps of "Label
hand-over up."
