MATERIALS AND TOOLS
Material Products
The HS750
plus
uses the same plotting materials as all Gerber
plotters. Gerber vinyl products in high performance or
intermediate grades are translucent, reflective, or metallic and
come in a wide range of colors. Also available are direct cut silk
screen, ruby photo film, paint masking material, rubber sandblast
stencil material, and heat transfer materials.
Consult your Gerber distributor for further information about
available materials, colors, and prices. Always insist on Gerber
authorized materials for highest quality results.
Loading Material
There are several precautions you should take before and as you
load the material. These are as follows:
CAUTION: You can load material into your HS750
plus
plotter
with a tool installed, but it is preferable to load material with
no tool in the carriage. Otherwise, damage can result to the
blade.
CAUTION: While power is off, center the carriage by gently
pushing toward the center of its travel. Take care to move the
carriage slowly and firmly by gripping the right end of the
carriage housing, not by gripping the carriage spindle.
CAUTION: When power is on, the carriage spindle must be
moved only by using the slew keys. Attempts to manually
move the plotter drum, rotate or force the tool up or down
may damage the plotter.
CAUTION: Do not use the way shafts to lift or turn the
HS750
plus
. This can damage the system and reduce plotting
accuracy.
