Mechanical Operating Procedure

To Load or Unload a Coil Ring

A) If your reel has a fixed center shaft go to Step - 1
B) If your reel has an adjustable center shaft go to Step - 2

Step 1:
Release and remove the outer coil retainer from the shaft. Load or unload the coil ring. Re-
place and secure the outer coil retainer. The reel is now ready for production.

Step 2:
Release and remove the outer coil retainer from the shaft. If unloading, adjust the centering
arms to a position that they have released the coil. Remove the coil ring. If loading, place the
coil ring on the adjustable centering arms, adjust the centering arms until they are tight on the
coil. Replace and secure the outer coil retainer. The reel is now ready for production.

The dancer arm was designed to operate from either side of the reel. The main reason for this
was so the reel controls could be lined up on the same side as the punch controls.

To switch the dancer arm to operate on the opposite side that it is currently located on, first re-
move the counter weight if equipped with one, then turn the locking knob to disengage the lock
on the dancer arm hub. Remove the dancer arm and relocate it to the other side. Turn the hub
60 degrees and insert the dancer arm into the slot. Set to desired length. Turn the locking knob
until tight on the dancer arm. Then replace counter weight, if so equipped.
Turn on the main power switch and select “LV” for loop arm vertical at “loop Type” on the
pushbuttons.
Turn off the main power switch, press and hold the “Run/Stop/Jog” button while turning the
main power switch on. The first screen you see will display the jog speed percentage.
_________________________________
| JOG SPEED 23% + |

|_________________________________|

If you want the jog speed faster then press the “Reel Speed “+ ““ pushbutton. If you want the
jog speed slower then press the “ Reel Speed “-” “ pushbutton. The jog speed is shown in per-
cent of max jog speed. If the jog speed is “OK “ then push the Run/Stop/Jog button once for
next.
The next screen asks if you want to set up the sensor? As before the percent speed buttons are
used for the yes-no. Select “yes”! And then next.
