5.5 Film brake adjustment

Use the film brake adjustments to prevent

the roll of film from free spinning. For film tension,
use the UPPER FILM TENSION and LOWER
FILM TENSION on the Operations control panel.

Excessive brake tension may cause the

output to curl. Always use the minimum

brake tension required to complete the task.

INFORMATION

Increase film brake tension

a) Rotate the film brake adjust dial clockwise

slowly to gradually increase tension to the
unwind shaft.

Film brake adjustment

Decrease film brake tension

a) Rotate the film brake adjust dial clockwise

slowly to gradually decrease tension to the
unwind shaft.

Film brake adjustment

5.6 Using inline slitters

At no time should the slitter guard be

removed! Sharp blades can cut you!
