SHAKER & HEATER
Once the unit is removed from its crate, the take-up roll holder and motor need to be attached. For this you will need:
- 8 Hexagon Head Screws
- 2 Metal Plates with circular & square holes
- Left Roll Holder
- Right Roll Holder with Rewind Motor
- Silver Circular Tube
- Siler Rectangular Tube
- 4 Tube End Caps (2 circular & 2 rectangular)
- 4 Long Hexagon Head Screws
Steps to Assemble
- Using the 8 hexagon head screws and the 2 metal plates, attach the plates so that portion with the cut outs are curving outward.
- Take the rectangular silver tube and feed it through both of the cut outs on the plates attached to the shaker. After, take the silver circular tube and feed it through one cut out.
- With the circular tube fed through one cut out, slide the roll holders on the tube, ensuring they are facing the correct side they are labelled for. The roll holders should be between the two metal plates when all assembly is complete.
- Once the roll holders are on the circular silver tube, adjust them to have the rectangular tube fit in the cut out located on the rear of the roll holders. With the roll holders attached to both tubes, insert the circular tube through the cut out on the other metal plate so that everything is level. Using the 4 long hexagon head screws, secure each tube in its place by screwing in and tightening 2 of the long screws on each metal plate where you can finds holes directly above or below each tube.
- At this point, the tube end caps can be attached and the motor can be plugged into the port located on the right-hand side of the shaker unit.
- The last step is to add the empty roll to the holder and adjust it so that the film from the printer is straight and well aligned when it is attached to the empty roll it comes time to print. You want to be sure that the film does not sag on either side when it is connected to the end roll. Once you are happy with the alignment, tightening the knobs on the front of the roll holders to keep them secured in place.
