Section 3.3: Set Up the Slitter (Optional)
Three slitter blades housings are included with the unit. Six can be used in the slitting station at
one time. Additional blade housing can be purchased from Primera. You will need to decide how
you would like to slit your labels. For example, depending on what type of applicator will be used
you may need to slit and remove edge waste. Use the following
Instructions to set up the slitter.
1. Release the slitter station from its shipping position by
loosening the thumb screws on either side. Move it to
the farthest "up" position. Re-tighten the thumbscrews.
2. Continue feeding the labels over the slitter rollers and
under the edge waste roller.
3. Temporarily attach the label directly to the take-up mandrel. This will provide the
necessary tension in order start the slitting process.

WARNING!
The slitter blades are
exposed and VERY sharp when the
slitter station is in the "up" position.
Use extreme caution!
