Labelmate S-100 Manuel D'utilisation page 4

Getting started
SET-UP AND USE
• 1. Place the S-100 or S-200 Label Slitter so that it is perpendicular to the web of labels to be slit. Observe the Paper Path
Label on the Slitter.
• 2. Loosen the Black Knob holding the red Blade Cover Shield and raise the Shield to the vertical position.
• 3. Rotate the Black Knob assembly approximately one-half turn so it is facing down and out of the way.
• 4. See WARNING NOTICE above. Rotate the blade holder shaft slightly to lift the Blade Holders from the round white
Nylon Fixed Paper Guide.
• 5. Being careful to avoid contact with the cutting blades, feed the label web under the Rotating Paper Guide and over
the Fixed Paper Guide.
• 6. Adjust the position of the rings on the Rotating and Fixed Paper Guides to the width of your label web. Only finger
tighten the screws. If you have the PC-1 Preset Counter, the labels must pass through the sensor slot.
• 7. Pull the label web through and affix it to the label rewind core on the Label Rewinder.
• 8. Being careful to avoid contact with the cutting Blades, adjust the position of the Blade Holders as desired. To do this,
loosen the white Nylon set screw of the Blade Holders and slide the Blade Holders in or out as needed. Finger tighten
the white Nylon set screw to hold the adjustment. Do not over tighten.
• 9. Extend the cutting blades as required using the black click-stop adjustment on the side of each knife. THE BLADE
TIP MUST EXTEND WELL PAST THE ROUND WHITE NYLON ROD SO THE CUTTING BLADE ITSELF IS RESTING ON
THE WHITE NYLON.
• 10. Being careful to avoid contact with the cutting Blades, rotate the Blade Holders down until the cutting blades rest
lightly on the Fixed Paper Guide. The Blades must pierce the label
• 11. Now lower the red Blade Shield to the Blade Holders.
• 12. Secure the red Blade Shield by rotating the small Black Knob assembly into the slot on the red Blade Shield and tight-
ening the small Black Knob until it is snug. The Blades will press into the Nylon bar. CAUTION: DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
NOTE: If the red Blade Shield does not press on all Blade Holders equally, loosen the mounting nuts for the Blade Shield
Hinge on the Chassis and reposition them until the Blade Shield is "level" with the Blade Holders.
• 13. Start the Label Rewinder and the printer (if used). Adjust the speed of the Label Rewinder as required. See the CAT-3
User Manual for details.
• 14. To make fine adjustments to the position of the blades over the web AS A SET, use the large black adjustment knob
marked "LIFT BLADES TO ADJUST." NOTE: ALWAYS LIFT THE BLADES FROM THE LABEL WEB TO MAKE ADJUST-
MENTS. USE CAUTION TO AVOID CONTACT WITH THE CUTTING BLADES.
When the slitting action becomes impaired because of dull Cutting Blades, the Blades can be clicked down within their
holders to expose an unused area of the cutting blade. In this way, blade life is greatly extended. If desired, the used-up
part of the Blade can be snapped off at one of the score lines.
When the cutting blades are completely worn out, replace them with LABELMATE HSB-10 High Speed Cutting Blades.
