Adjusting The Brush Weight
The function of the brush weight is to provide
enough downward pressure on the tape as it
travels over the moistening brush so that the
adhesive is properly activated. The brush
weight is adjusted at the factory and should not
require further adjustment. However, should
you process lightweight non-reinforced tapes,
you may wish to reduce the weight on the
moistening brush.
1. Loosen the locking nut
2. Slide the weight forward to increase brush
weight
3. Slide the weight to the rear to decrease the
brush weight
