needle. Insert the needle into the magnetizer and all the way back to the cutter. Rotate the needle
as it is inserted so it will fit in the small recess in the cutter.
14.
Place the brass needle clamping nut over the end of the needle and use the 1/8” wrench to push the
needle clamping nut and nylon ball back until the threads of the nut can engage the threads of the
magnetizer assembly. Tighten the nut until it is just snug (approximately a quarter turn). The nut will
compress the nylon ball around the needle to hold the needle in place. However, note that over-
tightening the needle clamping nut can damage the magnetizer.
15.
Loosen the needle clamping nut a quarter turn and then re-tighten one quarter turn. Repeat the
loosen/re-tighten step a total of three to four times. This step ensures that the needle is properly
seated against the cutter without being so tight as to bind the cutter.
16.
Install the cut lever. Slide the push rod all the way back to make sure the push wire is out of the
cutter. Install the cut lever by tilting the front end down so the slots in the front of the cut lever can
be slipped on to the cutter dowel pin. Make sure the push wire stays retracted. Position the cut
lever so the cut lever alignment pin with two screws and washers can be installed. Tighten the
screws with the two 5/64” hex head driver.
17.
Install the cut lever spring and spring retainer. If the cut lever spring and spring retainer have
separated, insert the cut lever spring in the hole in the cut lever spring retainer. Retract the push rod
and move the cut lever to its “up” position. Use your finger to apply slight upward pressure on the
cut lever. Insert the cut lever spring through the opening in the top of the cut lever and make sure
the end of the spring goes in the recess in the top of the feed tube support. Install the cut lever
spring retainer by inserting it in the slot in the cut lever, and while pushing it down, turn it 90
degrees to lock it in place.
18.
Slide the body cover into the slots in the Multishot body, from back to front.
19.
If you are using the head mold holder, install it by loosening the head mold attachment set screw
with the .050” wrench and sliding the head mold holder onto the magnetizer assembly as far as it
will go. Tighten the set screw snug, but take care not to over-tighten or you may damage the
magnetizer.
20.
To reinstall the drive roller assembly, slide the wire advance lever into position through the side of
tag supply body. Place the drive roller assembly into position through the hole in the wire advance
lever. Secure with the drive roller shoulder screw. Slide the wire guide in towards the drive roller
assembly and tighten the wire guide set screw. Position idler roller and secure with idler shoulder
screw. Position wire advance lever spring into the location hole on the wire advance lever and
compress this spring by pushing the wire advance lever until it touches the tag supply body. Holding
this position, set the wire advance lever stop set screw to the position for a standard length tag and
release the wire advance lever. Place the pull spring over the two holes on the wire advance lever
and install the two pan head screws. Advance the wire advance lever to ensure that it “clicks”.
Replace the tag supply body cover by sliding it into the slots from the back.
21.
Attach the tag supply body to the Multishot body by pressing the two together. The two prongs on
the tag supply body fit in the slot in the rear of the Multishot body. Ensure the two pieces are
