SET-UP Instructions, Adjustments

SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS

Place the label roll onto the reel hanger bar. The roll should be against a metal lock clip so that it is held straight. Place second metal lock clip onto reel hanger bar to keep the labels snug.

Thread the web under the guide rod, between the hold down brush and the strip plate and back under the strip plate. Lay the web across the slot in the take-up hub. Lock the web in position with the metal lock rod. (The take-up hub turns counter-clockwise.)

Daisy-chain option:

DSP-2 dispensers can be “daisy-chained” together to operate in series. When a label is removed from one of the machines, the next label will not feed until the labels are removed from all the machines. Example: If 3 machines are “daisy-chained” together, when a label is taken off the first machine, it will not feed; when a label is taken off the second machine, it will not feed. When the label is taken from the third machine, all machines will feed their respective labels. (DSP-2-CABLE needed to “daisy-chain” machines.)

ADJUSTMENTS

Hold Down Brush:

Using the upper thumbscrew on the side of the machine, adjust the hold down brush for tensioning. For best results, labels should be pressed firmly against the strip plate. However, if the labels are held too tightly, they will cause excessive drag on the motor.

Photosensor:

The photosensor can be adjusted in any direction by using the lower thumbscrew on the side of the machine and the thumbscrew underneath the photosensor bracket. Loosening the thumbscrew on the side of the machine allows the photosensor to move in and out.

This is used to set the overhang distance of the label over the strip plate. The thumbscrew underneath the photosensor bracket is used to swivel the sensor along the front of the strip plate. When the label is being fed the correct distance, lock the bracket in place. If there are 2 or more labels across, align the photosensor with the last label to be removed. When these screws are locked in place, the machine is set.
