ADJUSTING THE ROLL GUIDES CONTINUED
• Set the space between the guides to just larger than
the width of the tape.
• Use the guides to center the tape as much as
possible by inserting each tab into a slot the same
distance from the outside edge of the panel. For
example, if you set the bottom part of the guide in
the second slot from the outside edge of the panel,
set the front part of the guide also into the second
slot from the outside edge.
LOADING THE TAPE
1. Cut the end of the tape so that it has a clean,
square end to feed under the drive wheel.
2. Load the tape roll into the basket so that:
• The adhesive side is down.
• The roll is upright between the roll guides.
(See Figure 4)
• The end of the tape goes over the:
a. Top of the roll from back to front.
b. Lift roller then rubber roller
• The end of the tape is fed under the upper tape
plate and drive wheel; and is butted against the shear
blade.
3. Close the top cover.
NOTE: Feed the tape:
• Adhesive side down
• Around the lift roller
• Over the rubber roller
• Under the upper tape plate
• Under the guide bar
• Up against the shear blade
NOTE: The front part of the top cover is attached
to the rear part with plastic pivot points. To
attach or detach the front part to or from the
rear, squeeze the back part of the top cover
just below the pivot point to spread the opening
where the front part attaches. This will allow the
pivot knobs to fit into the slots. (See Figure 5)
NOTE: Be sure the top cover is fully closed.
There is a safety interlock built into the dispenser
which prevents the machine from operating
unless the cover is completely closed.
CHECKING UPPER TAPE PLATE
Make sure the upper tape plate is in its proper position.
(See Figure 6) If the plate is not correctly positioned:
1. Hold the upper tape plate by its rear edge
(See Figure 7) and guide it forward so that the front
slot centers around the drive wheel.
NOTE: The upper tape plate must fit:
• Around the drive wheel
• Under the guide bar
• Over the rubber roller drive wheel
2. When the cutouts in the sides of the plate are above
the retaining buttons, drop the plate down and slide
it forward as far as it will go.
NOTE: There is a round guide bar just before
the cutting blade. The front of the upper tape
plate should be under that guide bar.
