place. Press the PRINT switch on.
FITTING TYPE/DIE HOLDER
NEVER ASSUME THAT A TYPE/DIE HOLDER IS COLD.
Only pick up the type/die holder by its handle. Ensure that the face of the magnetic catch is
clean, open the red type holder access door (the alarm will sound unless the print switch is off),
align the type/die holder within the two side locators and slide in until the magnet catches on
the keep plate. Close the door.
FOIL FEED ADJUSTING SCREW (refer to page 35)
This adjusts the amount of foil used per print. Winding the adjusting screw in in reduces the
foil pull and vice versa. Ensure that the locking nut is fully tightened after adjustment. A gap
of 1 to 2mm is recommended between each portion of used foil.
