3.Use a leader board to set the main roller and pull roller pressure prior to webbing.

4.Use a leader board to start the run and a trailer board to finish the run.

5.Using the pull rollers will allow you to leave gaps between boards.

6.If not using the pull rollers, have the boards nearby to butt end to end during feeding.
