STEP 1: INSTALL THE BRACKET GUIDE
• The Bracket Guide(BG) is mounted on the Right side for labels with a path going from Right to Left (FIG.4)
• The Bracket Guide is mounted on the Left side for labels with a path going from Left to Right (FIG.5)
• Loosen (but leaving in the chassis to avoid loss) the 3 screws on the chassis and slide the BG in between the screws
and chassis as shown in FIG.1 (screw 1/2/3 for the R/L model and screw 2/3/4 for the L/R model)
STEP 2: INSTALL THE TENSION ARM
• Depending on the model (R/L or L/R) the Tension Arm can be mounted on the right or left side.
• The Tension Arm MUST be mounted on the same side as the sensor(BLUE, FIG.1 /8) is mounted.
•
Loosen the Set Screw at the end of the Tension Arm (FIG.1 /5) and position the Arm with the Set Screw facing the flat
on the Tension/Control Arm Shaft.
•
Tighten the Set Screw facing the flat on the Shaft
• Re-insert and tighten the Tension Arm Shaft Screw (FIG.1 /6) into the Tension Arm Shaft.
STEP 3: INSTALL THE 2 TAKE-UP SHAFTS
• CHUCK : Mount the inner Flange onto the Quick-Chuck with two screws provided.
• Slide the QUICK-CHUCK Assemblies onto the TWIN-MATRIX Motor Shafts allowing for clearance to the Chassis and
Motor Screws. Tighten the Allen Screw onto the flat part of the Motor Shafts (FIG.1 /7) until it is tight.
•
Set the TWIN-MATRIX in place near the label exit slot of the printer, keeping sufficient distance for the Tension Arm to
move freely up and down
• FIG.6 shows the optional base-plate that can assist to allign the TWIN-MATRIX with your printer
• Plug the Power Supply in a suitable power outlet and connect the TWIN-MATRIX who is now ready for use
PREPARATION FOR REWINDING
• Switch the power off
• Slide an empty label core over the 2 Quick-Chucks until the core is against the inner Flange Plate. On the Quick-Chucks,
tighten the Lock Knob (FIG.4 /1)
•
Feed the label web from the printer over the first shaft (FIG.4 /2), go under the Tension Arm (FIG.4 /3) and up again over
the black rubber platen roller (FIG.4 /4)
•
Make sure to have sufficient free material, circa 50 cm
• Start to separate the waste matrix from the backing paper and guide the waste matrix under the next shaft (FIG.4 /5)
• Secure it to the upper take-up roll core with tape as shown in FIG.4. and attach the labels (now without the waste matrix)
to the lower take-up roll core.
CONTROL PANEL SETTINGS FIG.3
R/L MODEL (FIG.4)
• The upper motor should turn clockwise (arrow to the right) and the lower motor counter-clockwise (arrow to the left)
• Set the Torque/speed for both motors to allign with the speed from your printer.
L/R MODEL (FIG.5)
• The upper motor should turn counter-clockwise (arrow to the left) and the lower motor clockwise (arrow to the right)
• Set the Torque/speed for both motors to allign with the speed from your printer
IMPORTANT
• Both motors are activated when the paper loop is long enough and the Tension Arm comes in front of the sensor. Minor
adjustments from the Torque might be required during the process when rewinding to a maximum roll capacity.
