• 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 guide 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.

drive wheel.
