2.  Press and hold

3.  Manually guide the web out of the Main and Pull 

Rollers.

 WARNING:

 Rollers may be hot. Hot rollers 

could burn you. Keep fingers and hands away from 
the hot rollers.

4.  Once the film jam has been cleared, re-thread 

the film web. Refer to the “Webbing the Machine” 
section.
