6.1.2 Control and gauge set up of the support table
The pre-set support table is perpendicular to the pressure
plate. Place the support table on a mitre gauge (pic.2,
gauge not supplied) to check proper alignment. If the
table is not perpendicular, loosen the screw (1). Align
the table according to the mitre gauge, tighten screw
(1). Release screw (3) and set up the gauge (4) to „0“, then
tighten again.
6.1.3 Adjusting the amount of applied glue The
amount of glue is pre-set and should suit the
majority of operations.
- If the amount of glue is not convenient. Prepare a test
tape, warp up your machine and load the tape. Use the
amount of glue adjustment knob to set the demanded
quantity. Turning left adds and turning right decreases
the amount of applied glue (pic.6) The scale displays the
amount of glue.
- Caution: Do not turn the adjustment knob until the glue
has reached operating temperature.
Too much glue overflows on the visible side of the tape. Not
enough glue is not evenly applied along the whole width of
the tape.

6.1.4 Thickness of tape
Set up thickness only when you have a softer or thinner
tape than 1 mm. Otherwise, the pressure automatically
adjusts to the tape. The thickness can be simply set by a
turn of the knob (pic.7).

6.1.5 Setting up tape length
- Measure the length of the banded edge and leave a
bit more of the tape for final trimming.
- Apply enough pressure when trimming the edge,
this will improve the finish.
