STEP 1: INSTALL THE BRACKET GUIDE
• The Bracket Guide(BG) is mounted on the Right side for labels with a path going from Right to Left (FIG.11)
• The Bracket Guide is mounted on the Left side for labels with a path going from Left to Right (FIG.10)
• Loosen (but leaving in the chassis to avoid loss) the 3 upper screws on the chassis and slide the BG in between the
screws and chassis as shown in FIG.1 and FIG.2
• Install the black shaft and glide the media guide over the shaft (FIG.3)
STEP 2: INSTALL THE TENSION ARM
• The Tension Arm can be mounted right or left, depending on the printer position (FIG.4 & FIG.5), but always on the
same side as the Bracket Guide
• Remove and keep the large Screw from the end of the Tension Arm Shaft (Shaft below the main Motor Shaft).
• Loosen the Set Screw at the end of the Tension Arm and position the Arm with the Set Screw facing the flat on the
Tension/Control Arm Shaft.
• Tighten the Set Screw facing the flat on the Shaft (FIG.6)
• Re-insert and tighten the Tension Arm Shaft Screw into the Tension Arm Shaft.
STEP 3: INSTALL THE TAKE-UP SHAFT
• STANDARD, 1-INCH AND 10-INCH(FIG.7): Slide the Flange Plate onto the hollow end of the Rewind Shaft. For maxi-
mum width, the Flange face should be flush with the end of the Shaft. Tighten the screw in the Hub.
• CHUCK (FIG.8): Mount the inner Flange onto the Quick-Chuck with two screws provided.
• Slide the Shaft and Flange Assembly onto the UNI-CAT Motor Shaft allowing for clearance to the Chassis and Motor
Screws. Tighten the Allen Screw onto the flat part of the Motor Shaft until it is tight.
• ACH (FIG.9): Slide the Hub of the ACH over the motor Shaft of the UNI-CAT. Position the Hub so there is a gap be-
tween the ACH Hub and the Rewinder Drive Unit case. Tighten the Allen Screw onto the flat part of the Motor Shaft
until it is tight.
• Set the UNI-CAT in place near the label exit slot of the printer
• Plug the Power Supply in a suitable power outlet and connect the UNI-CAT which is now ready for use
USING THE ACH (FIG.9)
• Loosen the three (A) Lock Levers on the back of the ACH Flange Plate (B)
• Grasp the front Flange Plate (C) with one hand and the rear Flange Plate (B) with the other.
• Rotate the Plates in opposite directions until the three Core Fingers (D) move to the center of the ACH next to
each other.
• Slide an empty cardboard core only partway over the Fingers (D) leave about 50mm between the flange and the core.
• Now rotate the Flange plates in opposite directions to expand the Fingers against the inside of the cardboard core.
While you hold the Flanges so the Fingers are against the inside of the core, rotate one of the Locking Levers clock-
wise until it is fixed. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.
• Move the other two (2) Locking Levers to the LOCK position. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.
• Now slide the core all the way on up against the inside Flange. If the core is too tight, loosen the Lock Levers and try
again sliding the core a little further over the Fingers to yield less tightness.
