Supply Roll Tension Adjustment
(L)
Top and bottom supply rolls should always have about the same tension. By turning the top
roll with one hand, and the bottom roll with the other hand, it can be determined if one of the
rolls is tighter than the other.
Note:
Too much tension can destroy film, documents, make noise and damage the machine.
Adjust the tension to the minimum amount required. Do this by loosening the tension knobs
until there is no tension on the film. With the machine threaded and at operating temperature,
turn the motor switch to forward. Tighten the adjusting knobs only until the wrinkles in the
film are removed.
