Thread the label ribbon at the rewind unit.
➔ Thread the label ribbon around the deflection
rollers and the dancer armrollers as shown in
figure [18].
➔ Open the spreader mechanism of the rewinding roll-
er using the lever [18C].
– When the spreader mechanism is open, the red
point on the rewinding roller is visible.
➔ Insert the end of the label ribbon into the slot on the
rewinding roller.
➔ Rotate the rewinding roller counter-clockwise until
the label ribbon is under tension.
After a label roll is passed through, the backing
material roll rests firmly on the rewinding roller.
The spreader mechanism allows the diameter
of the rewinding roller to be decreased. The
backing material roll can then be easily re-
moved.
➔ Only put the label ribbon on the rewinding
roller when the spreader mechanism is open
(red point visible).
➔ Do not close the spreader mechanism before
the backing material is removed from the re-
winding roller
