Selecting the tag length 

The Multishot can inject standard length (1.1 mm), 

one and a half length (1.65 mm) or double length (2.2 

mm) tags. It will not inject the 0.5 mm half length tag. 

Standard and double length tags use the standard 

ratchet, and are selected by adjusting the wire 

advance lever stop set screw to control the throw 

(range) of the wire advance lever (Figure 5). See 

Section 5 for parts schematics. 

Standard length tags are cut when the screw is in, 

and double length tags are cut when the screw is out. 

Do not

 take the screw all the way out! If the screw is 

removed too far then the wire advance lever will 

swing out of the bottom of the wire supply body. 

Cutting 1.5 length tags requires replacing the 

standard rachet with the special ratchet. The special 

ratchet, which has fewer teeth than the standard 

ratchet, is optional.

To inject double length tags, the stop set 

screw does not have to be removed, simply 

retract the standard length screw. 

-or- 

If the Mulitshot is set to cut standard length 

tags and you wish to cut a double length tag 

without changing the wire advance lever 

stop set screw, press the wire advance lever 

twice before pressing the cut lever. Note, 

however, if you are using a counter, this 

approach will increment the counter by two. 

Similarly, if the special ratchet is installed to 

cut 1 1/2 length tags, then pressing the wire 

advance lever twice will generate a triple 

length tag.
