CAUTION:

Keep clear of rotating hardware during thread up. Turn power off of take up reel during
thread up or place take up reel in the JOG mode. Make certain material is taut and
above RLL upper beam prior to power up.

Set the Payout/Rewind switch to Rewind on the Control Pwb of the RLL. This will
automatically switch light beam operation to give full speed at the bottom of the loop
and the motor to be full off if the top light beam is interrupted by material. Caution:
Remember to keep material taut in this mode during tread up keeping the motor of the
controlled device off. As the loop depth now becomes lower the motor speed will
increase and eventually the loop will be controlled between 12 and 18 inches from the
floor.

Turn on power on take up reel or place in run mode. The RLL will start auto control as
the material falls below the top light beam.
