1) Attach the Stainless Station to the end of the Conveyor (C-3) if desired see Figure #1 above.
2) To set up the machine, place the item to be labeled onto the Bottom Conveyor Belt and adjust the Product Rails
so that they guide the item straight along the Bottom Conveyor and the item can flow smoothly along the length
of the Bottom Conveyor and enter the Vertical Conveyor without interference. The Product Rails are adjustable
both in height and horizontal position along the width of the Bottom Conveyor.
3) Using the Vertical Padded Platen Adjustment Knob, maneuver the Vertical Padded Platen so that the item to be
labeled travels smoothly down the Bottom Conveyor and when the item enters the Vertical Conveyor the product
rotates smoothly and consistently and without hesitation.
4) Load the labels per Section #4 of this manual.
5) Locate thee Label Head Height Adjustment Knob. This screw adjustment is used to raise or lower the Label Dis-
pensing Plate at the correct height relative to the product to be labeled. If the label is below the desired height
relative to the product, turn the Label Head Height Adjustment Knob and raise the Main Label Head to the de-
sired height. If the label is above the desired height relative to the product, turn the Label Head Height Adjust-
ment Knob to the desired height relative to the product.
6) The machine is now ready for use.
