TIP: When front tabbing; the tab must enter the slot in the Center Support Plate. If you
make a change to position of Head 1 you may also need to adjust the position of the
Center Support Plate.
15. When you are satisfied with tab-positioning; set the tabber transport for the desired speed,
using the Speed Control Dial. Then set the speed of the feeder so that there is about a 2
inch gap between pieces; as they feed through the tabber.
Tip: If you want to test piece transport without applying tabs, you can press the STOP
button on the tabber, then press the soft key labeled “Pass-thru” to set the tabber in the
Pass-Thru mode. Press RUN to test the system without applying tabs.
16. Adjust the Head Position Minder against Head 1 and tighten the
knob. This device will mark the location of Head 1 to make the
process of loading new tab rolls easier. When loading new rolls
of tabs onto the heads, it is more convenient if you slide Head 1
close to the operator side of the unit; providing more room
between the heads.
After loading new tab rolls; you can simply slide Head 1 back,
until it meets the Head Position Minder. Head 1 has now been
returned to its original location and you are ready to continue
tabbing.
17. Head 1 setup is complete. If you will only be applying tabs with Head 1 you should
proceed to the “ Operation ” section. NOTE: Please be sure you have disabled Head 2.
If you will be applying tabs with Head 2, proceed to the section titled “Head 2
Adjustment – Side Tabbing” .
