Maintenance

Label edges fold over or catch on the sensor as they are applied to the container.

1.Over time adhesive from the labels can build up on the sensor flag just above the container rollers. Periodically clean the top of the sensor with a Q-tip and alcohol.

2.Make sure the sensor is positioned in the middle of the the label.

Unclamp Liner Idler Roller.

When not in use, leave the Liner Idler Roller in the unclamped position. This will minimize the possibility that permanent indentations will be made in the Liner Drive Roller.

Lubricate bearings.

Primera recommends oiling the four bearings associated with the Liner Drive Roller and Liner Idler Roller. Oil these four bearings for every 50,000 containers labeled. They should only be oiled after the first 50,000 containers as they are lubricated with a special grease at the factory. One drop of any machine oil or motor oil for each bearing should be adequate. This mainte- nance is optional but will increase the life of the applicators for heavy users who use the applicator for several hours each day.
