Adjusting the Unwind

Before loading fabric for the first time and anytime the fabric width changes - the unwind position must be adjusted - as the 545 is a center justified machine.

Loosen the unwind back plate locking thumbscrew A.

Rotate the back plate B clockwise to increase or counter clockwise to decrease the web width until the desired width is indicated on scale C.

Retighten the locking thumbscrew.

Loading Fabric for the First Time

Once the unwind position has been adjusted for the job width load a roll of fabric on the unwind core support so that the fabric pulls off the top clockwise.

While holding the unwind from spinning - tighten the core by turning the center knob clockwise. Confirm that the core is against the back stop.

Pull the tab on leader to release the end of fabric and cut off all fabric that has any tape or adhesive remaining. Pull off about 2 feet (.5m) of fabric to thread through the printer.

NOTE: The pull-tab / adhesive will be used on the subsequent rolls loaded at a

Stock Out Error to accelerate the reloading process.
