10.
Apply tape scale with the applicator tool:
Once the applicator tool is configured with the adhesive backing exiting from the exit
slot and steel tape extending past the front tool roller, the scale is ready to be installed
on the mounting surface.
11.
Slide tool along guide edge face (in direction shown above) with a slow and even
pressure motion until all of the tape is installed on the mounting surface. Be sure the
adhesive backing film does not bunch up and jam inside the tool and exits freely from
the exit slot.
12.
Pull adhesive backing away as applying scale to mounting surface.
13.
Once the scale is applied to the mounting surface, and before the blue protective film is
removed, it is recommended that even pressure be applied over the entire tape scale
length by sliding a glove-protected finger or the applicator tool across the scale. The
applied pressure will ensure that the adhesive is evenly and permanently set.
Apply pressure to ensure good adhesion
