A. Load the Hanger Strip

B. Measure the Frame and Adjust the Machine

C. Activate the Saber 250-A

Saw tooth hanger strips
contain 25 collated hangers.
Individual hangers are
barbed to ensure maximum
hold when inserted into a
frame.

The hanger strip is loaded
onto the guide, barbs
pointing downwards and
teeth facing the machine’s
operator, i.e., the front of the
Saber 250-A.

Once the strip is loaded onto
the guide, the operator
pushes the strip forward
toward the front of the
machine until the hanger
strip stops.

The required hanger strips (part
number 08-810) may be ordered
by contacting the Fletcher-Terry
Customer Service Department at
800.843-3826; outside the U.S.,
