Overview of Tach‐It Model #6510‐TL: The Tach‐It Model #6510‐TL is a tabletop L‐Clip Label Applicator. Once loaded with the labels to be applied to the product, an operator simply places the box to be sealed onto the top plate moving it forward against the Pressure Plate for Actuation. This action applies the label from the side to the bottom of a box. Utilizing a state‐of‐the‐art non‐contact Label Sensor, the Tach‐It Model # 6510‐TL detects the gap between labels. As the gap is required, the labels must be die‐cut. The normal gap is 3mm or 1/8”. Because of the sensor being used, unlike other machines, our Model #6510‐TL does not black lines printed on the liner. Easy to setup and use, the Tach‐It Model #6510‐TL will securely seal chipboard, tuck and many other types of boxes. Labels can be round and clear (this type of label is often called a wafer seal) or other shapes and materials of labels. The Label Sensor can detect all types of transparent and opaque labels. 11” 19.75” 8” Specifications: ... -

- Page 9 Feeding the Labels on the Tach‐It Model #6510‐TL Continued: Please see Figure 2, Figure 6 and Figure 7 for diagrams on the feeding of the labels into the Tach‐It Model #6510‐TL 1) The Label Roll Guides have 3‐inch core inserts fastened into them. Confirm that the Label Roll Guide placed onto the Label Roll Shaft has the 3‐inch core insert facing away from the Main Frame. 2) Place the roll of labels onto the Label Roll Shaft and against the Label Roll Guide. Ensure that the 3‐ inch core insert goes into the core of the label roll. The labels should be feeding from the top of the roll of labels and when the leading edge of the label liner is pulled, the label roll will rotate in a counterclockwise direction. 3) Place the 2 Label Roll Guide onto the Label Roll Shaft so that the 3‐inch core insert goes into the core of the label roll and secure with the Spring Collar. Do not press tight with the Spring Collars. This will cause tension on the label roll during operation of the machine. The Spring Collars should be snug against the label roll so that there is no lateral movement of the label roll along the Label Roll Shaft. If the labels to be used on the Model #6510‐TL are on a 1” core, simply reverse the Label Roll Guides so that the 3‐inch cores are facing away from the roll of Labels and secure with the Spring Collars. 4) Take the leading edge of the label liner and feed it between the Lower Urethane Pressure Plate and the Black Roller Shaft. See Figure 7. 5) Continue taking the leading edge of the label liner towards the Label Waste Rewinder and around the second Black Roller Shaft. Make sure that the label is going through the slot in the middle of the Label Sensor, See Figure 9. 6) Continue feeding the leading edge of the label liner to the Brass Separator Plate. Keeping the label liner against the bronze Separator Plate continue feeding it upward between the Brass Separator Plate and the Top Urethane Pressure Plate and over the top of the Brass Separator Plate. 7) Folding the label liner over the beveled portion of the Brass Separator Plate, take the label liner over the 3 Black Roller Shaft and to the Label Waste Rewinder. Using the U‐Pin that was unpacked during the assembly of the Model #6510‐TL, secure the label liner to the Label Waste Rewinder. Move the O‐Rings located on the Black Roller Shafts against the label liner. 8) The labels are now threaded correctly. 9) Both the Lower Urethane Pressure Plate and the Top Urethane Pressure Plate have thumb screws ...
- Page 10 Setting up of the Label Sensor and Label Position: The sensor used on the Model #6510‐TL is specifically designed to detect clear labels without any black indicator lines printed on the label liner. If the labels being used have the black line marks or are opaque, it is not a problem due to the state‐of‐the‐art Label Sensor used on this machine.

- Page 11 1) See Figure 2 of this manual. On the actual machine locate the Label Sensor and the Label Sensor Adjustment In and Out and The Label Sensor Adjustment Forward and Back assemblies. 2) Confirm that the labels are fed through the slot located in the Label Sensor. See Figure 9. See previous section of this manual Feeding the Labels if necessary. 3) On the Label Sensor towards the opening of the slot is a line embossed into the body of the Label Sensor. See Figure 9. Loosen the Label Sensor Adjustment In and Out thumbscrew and move the Label Sensor along the shaft so that the embossed line is as close to the center of the label as possible. 4) Locate the “+” and “–“buttons on the top of the Label Sensor. See Figure 8. There are LED indicator Lights next to the “+” button on the Label Sensor that will illuminate when there is power to the machine. These LED Indicator Lights will assist and help with setting the sensitivity of the Label Sensor. See Figure 8. 5) Plug the Power Cord into a properly grounded and surge protected electrical outlet of the proper voltage. Turn the machine on using the On/Off Power Switch, See Figure 1. 6) Hold the label liner and move the labels forward and back so that labels are traveling completely through the slot in the Label Sensor. Ensure that at least 2 or 3 labels are traveling completely through the width of the Label Sensor. See Below and see Figure 8 on the previous page: a. When a gap between the labels is within the slot of the Label Sensor, a Yellow Indicator Light should illuminate. If this is not happening, press the “+” button on the Label Sensor 2 or 3 times. Test again by moving 2 or 3 labels through the Label Sensor and see if the Yellow Indicator Light illuminates. If not repeat the above until the Yellow Indicator Light illuminates when the gap in the label is within the slot of the Label Sensor. b. Sometimes the Label Sensor may be set too sensitive. To check this, move the labels through the gap in the Label Sensor. If the Yellow Indicator Light illuminates at any place on the label that is not the gap between the labels, the Label sensor is too sensitive. Press the “–“ button on the Label Sensor 2 or 3 times and move a few labels through the sensor and ensure the Yellow Indicator Light only illuminates at the gap between the labels. If the Yellow Indicator light is still illuminating when the label is within the slot of the sensor, repeat the above by pressing the “–“ button 2 or 3 times and test again. Continue this step until the Yellow Indicator Light only illuminates at the gap between the labels. If there is printing on the label, the Label Sensor may detect the ink layer on the label. If possible, find a path within the label with no printing and using the Label Sensor Adjustment In and Out, align the line embossed in ...
- Page 12 8) To set the Label Sensor Adjustment Forward and Back, confirm that a label is fed halfway up the Brass Separator Plate as shown in Figure 4 of this manual. If a label is not in this position and with the On/Off Switch in the Off position, pull the label liner near the Label Waste Rewinder until the label is fed as shown in Figure 4. 9) The Label Sensor Adjustment Forward and Back will determine the feed position of each label as it is fed through the machine. Turn the Power on the machine by using the On/Off Power Switch and press the Label Applicator Roller Assembly and check in what position the next label fed as shown in Figure 4. If the label is not fed high enough, then move the Label Sensor by using the label Sensor Adjustment Forward and Back slightly forward towards the Label Waste Rewinder and test again. If the label is feeding too much, then move the Label Sensor back towards the Label Roll Shaft by using the Label Sensor Adjustment Forward and Back slightly back and try again. Due to the many types of labels, this step will require some trial and error. For fine adjustments to the label feed position, use the Label Length Control as shown in Figure 1 of this manual. 10) Once the previous steps have been completed, try applying a label to the product to be sealed using the Model #6510‐TL. If the label applies as desired, the Model #6510‐TL is ready for use. If the label does not apply as desired but the label is feeding consistently, adjustments can be made by using the Separator Plate Adjustment Thumb Screw, see Figure 2. For smaller labels, the Brass Separator Plate may need to be raised to allow for the label to apply evenly to the package. For larger labels, the Brass Separator Plate may need to be set lower for proper application of the label to the package. To adjust the position of the Brass Separator Plate, use the Separator Plate Adjustment Thumb Screw to raise and lower the Brass Separator Plate. This may require some trial and error for proper adjustment. Setting up the Product Guides: 1) The final step is to setup the Product Guide. 2) To setup the Product guide, loosen the 2 Product Guide Thumb Screws and move the Product Guide to the position necessary for the required placement of the labels on the package. See Figure 4. 3) There are multiple threaded holes in the Top Plate of the Model #6510‐TL and if needed the Product Guide can be fully removed and then placed in a position that will provide the necessary placement of the label on the package and the Product Guide Thumb Screws replaced and tightened. 4) The Model #6510‐TL can also be flush mounted into a table for larger boxes if desired. Use of the Tach‐It Model #6510‐TL: 1) Once all of the above has been completed, the Model #6510‐TL is ready for use. ...
