For the lubrication to the clutch, apply grease at 100 hours of the operation as a standard. There is the possibility that
excessive grease leaks from sections
of the clutch at the time of delivery or
B
of using after lubrication. When grease
leaks out, wipe it.

6. ADJUSTMENT OF THE ROUTE OF ELASTIC TAPE

(1) Supply route of the elastic tape
Pass elastic tape ❶ through the route after releas-
ing the follower roller.
(Refer to
LOCK" p.7
"9. FOLLOWER ROLLER RELEASE
.)
(2) Adjusting the side guide according to the
elastic tape width
Adjust the positions of side guides A ❶ at sections
A
(three places), side guide B ❷ at section B and
guide width ❺ of the presser at section B according
to the width of elastic tape to be used. For guide
width ❺ of the presser at section B, loosen screws
and ❹ and carry out adjustment.

(3)
Removing /Attaching procedure of the presser
To remove or attach the presser, loosen presser
spring regulator ❻ and lower collar ❼.
(4) Adjusting the position of the tape guide
For the adjustment between tape guide ❶ and the
presser, loosen screw ❸, and turn stopper ❷ to ad-
just. After the adjustment, x it with screw ❸.

7. ADJUSTING PROCEDURE OF THE TAPE FEED AMOUNT

WARNING :
To protect against possible personal injury due to abrupt start of the machine, be sure to start the fol­lowing work after turning the power off and ascertaining that the motor is at rest.
(1) Adjusting the feed amount with the thumbscrew
Tape feed amount can be adjusted by adjusting the thumbscrew. Fine adjustment is performed in step
(2) Adjusting the spring pressure" p.5
amount can be adjusted within the range of 0.9 to 2.2 mm with this adjustment.
* When using the tape feed amount between 1.4 to
3.5 mm, refer to step (3).
1) Open pulley cover ❶, and loosen buttery nut ❷.
2) Turn knob ❸, and adjust the feed amount.
* Turn knob ❸ clockwise (+ direction) to in crease
the feed amount. Turn it counterclockwise (– di-
rection) to decrease the feed amount.
3) After tightening buttery nut ❷, close pulley cover ❶.

Fine adjustment of the feed amount can be performed
by adjusting the spring pressure.
1) Loosen nut ❶.
2)
Turn adjustment screw ❷ to adjust the spring pressure.
B
* When the spring pressure is increased, the tape
feed amount is decreased.
When the spring pressure is decreased, the tape
feed amount is increased.
3) Tighten nut ❶.
(3) Adjusting the feed amount with the cam
Tape feed amount can be changed from 0.9 to 2.2 mm
(at the time of delivery from the factory) to the range of
1.4 to 3.5 mm by adjusting eccentric cam B ❶.
1) Remove the pulley cover and the pulley.
(Refer to Fig. 1.)
2) Loosen two screws in eccentric cam B ❶.

3)
[When the tape feed amount is 0.9 to 2.2]
(Refer to Fig. 2.)
Tighten and x two screws in eccentric cam B ❶ at
the position where the notch of eccentric cam B ❶
comes in contact with the left-hand side of screw ❷.
[When the tape feed amount is 1.4 to 3.5]
(Refer to Fig. 3.)
Tighten and x the screw in eccentric cam B ❶ at the
Fig. 3
position where the notch of eccentric cam B ❶ comes
in contact with the right-hand side of screw ❷.

For the matters that demand special atten-
tion to the xed position of the eccentric
cam, refer to "8. INSTALLING POSITION
OF THE ECCENTRIC CAM" p.6.

8. INSTALLING POSITION OF THE ECCENTRIC CAM

WARNING :
To protect against possible personal injury due to abrupt start of the machine, be sure to start the fol­lowing work after turning the power off and ascertaining that the motor is at rest.

of the points below for the installing position of ec-
centric cam B ❷.
1) Press eccentric cam B ❷ against screw ❶ of ec-
centric cam A as illustrated in Fig. 4.
2) Tighten two screws each ❼ and ❽ of eccentric
cams A ❶ and B ❷ so that clearances B and C
between washer ❺, pointer ❻ and rod ❸ are
equal in the state that buttery nut ❹ is tightened
