Auto Feed-to-Length (A-FTL) Mode
The auto feed-to-length (A-FTL) setting allows the operator to dispense a preset length of
material. Once the powered tear assist feature is activated (see Powered Tear Assist section),
the machine will automatically dispense another preset length of material (same as previous).
This process will continue as long as the feature is active. The foot pedal also acts as an override
in this mode. To receive a length of material greater than the preset length, press and hold the
foot pedal until the desired length is received. The preset length can be adjusted (using the
add/subtract buttons on head assembly) as needed.
Preset Lengths:
There are 10 preset length settings. As you press the length control (add/subtract) button
(As
mentioned above, the A-FTL feature defaults to the shortest preset length (2 revolutions))
,
the machine will dispense a length of material equivalent to one 360 degree revolution of the
drive roller (approximately 9 inches of material). The length setting “1” defaults to 2
revolutions. Each increase in length adds one additional revolution (up to 11 revolutions).
