6.1.3 Adjusting the amount of applied glue The 
amount of glue is pre-set and should suit the majority 
of operations.

- If the amount of glue is not convenient. Prepare a test 
tape, warp up your machine and load the tape. Use the 
amount of glue adjustment knob to set the demanded 
quantity. Turning left adds and turning right decreases 
the amount of applied glue (pic.6) The scale displays the 
amount of glue.

- Caution: Do not turn the adjustment knob until the 
glue has reached operating temperature.

- Too much glue overflows on the visible side of the tape. 
Not enough glue is not evenly applied along the whole 
width of the tape.

6.1.4 Thickness of tape

Set up thickness only when you have a softer or 
thinner tape than 1 mm. Otherwise, the pressure 
automatically ajdusts to the tape. The thickness can be 
simply set by a turn of the knob (pic.11).

6.1.5 Setting up tape length

- Measure the length of the banded edge and leave a 
bit more of the tape for final trimming.
- Apply enough pressure when trimming the edge, this 
will improve the finish.

Guiding place adjustment   

 

The surface of the guiding plate must be perpendicular to the pressure roller. Loosen 

screw (1) and place guiding place onto the workpiece. When the workpiece  is 

perpendicular to the pressure roller, tighten the screw (1). Loosen the screw (3), adjust 

the plate to “0” (4) then tighten screw (3) again.

Glue Adjustment 

 

When machine reach working temperature, prepare a testing edge band (approx. 20cm/ 

8”) and insert with lowest feeding speed and micro-adjust glue knob to desired 

application. (Fig 4) 

        

Caution: Do not turn the glue knob when the machine has not reached its working 

temperature.

Thickness adjustment

Adjust thickness adjustment knob and screw accordingly when 

feeding soft or thin edge band. (Fig 5)

6.1.2 Control and gauge set up of the support table

- The 

pre-set 

support table is perpendicular to the 

pressure plate. Place the support table on a mitre gauge 
(pic.2, gauge not supplied) to check proper allignment. If 
the table is not perpendicular, loosen the screw (1). Align 
the table according to the mitre gauge, tighten screw 
(1). Release screw (3) and set up the gauge (4) to „0“, then 
tighten again.
