ROLLING CORNER JOINTS
Ensure Creaser Wheel is in forward position.
For verticals:
1. Advance tape twice. Place Creaser Wheel firmly into
corner and roll upward (tape spool should be to the left of
the operator). Maintain centering in corner. This allows
even adhesion of tape on both walls as well as prevents
the sides of the Creaser Wheel from contacting the walls.
2. Approximately 6” from the end of the seam stop rolling
and cut the tape. Roll out remainder of tape.
For horizontals:
1. Same as above except: Use Tape Holder Wheel to keep
tape against Creaser Wheel when starting each seam.
The Tape Holder Wheel must be cleared away from the
Creaser Wheel before advancing tape to prevent any
interference. As before, it is recommended that taping be
done from left to right.
MAINTENANCE
To clear jam or misfeed:
1. If tape does not feed within 3 to 4 advances, or the Control Tube is
very tight during advance, a jam is likely.
2. Open Jaw Assembly and pull tape through until unaffected portion of
tape is past the Cutter mechanism. Close Jaw and cut tape to
remove damaged portion.
Cleaning and Lubrication:
1. Adhesive buildup may occur on Creaser Wheel and/or Front Roller.
2. Clean and Lubricate DAILY. WD-40 is recommended. See pictures
for lubrication locations.
