1. Introduction
You must inform yourself regarding the safe operation of electrical appliances in general and regarding the
characteristics and functions of the AP16-F in particular, before you operate the device. It is necessary to read
and follow the safety and operating instructions in this manual. In case the operator will be a third party, the
latter should be made acquainted with the content of this manual before operating the device as well.
2. Proper usage
The machine is designed to apply one or two self-adhesive labels at once to cylindric objects of different
diameter and length. The label application surface must be smooth. In case of applying front and back labels
simultaneously, the distances between the labels on the liner must be constant. Make sure you load the media
acc ording to this manual and calibrate the device for each different label type and size. You can then place
the target product underneath the pressure arm onto the product rollers. Make sure that the product will not
interfere with the applicator body when rotating, and that no part of the product will cause eccentric rotation.
Once you push the start-button or activate the foot pedal, the device will peel off the label(s) and apply them
to the rotating product. After the label has been fully applied, the AP16-F will stop rotating. You can then
remove the product and repeat the procedure. Any other use than the one described here is considered
improper and may generate significant risk of accident as well as void the warranty. The manufacturer accepts
no responsibility for faults, harm or damages caused by such improper usage.
