Take-A-Label

Operating Instructions

Model 250M and 450M

NOTE: The TAKE-A-LABEL dispenser is shipped mounted to a base to prevent shifting in the container. Remove the machine from the base.

  1. To load a roll of labels on the TAKE-A-LABEL, loosen the unwind hub screw on the unwind collar and remove the collar, unwind spring and disc of the unwind shaft.
  2. Place a roll of labels on the unwind shaft so that the beginning of the roll is on the bottom of the web coming off to your right as you face the side of the machine.
  3. Replace unwind disc, unwind spring and collar on unwind shaft. If using labels on a 3" diameter core, the hub will fit inside the core and support the roll of labels. When the disc is in place, tighten unwind hub screw against unwind shaft.
  4. Thread loose end of labels under and up the front of the stripping plate.
  5. Pull labels over top of stripping plate far enough to reach the waist take-up roll.
  6. Remove the waist wind clip, thread label backing paper under clip, and reinsert clip over loose paper.

  7. If labels tend to follow backing paper over the top of the stripping plate instead of peeling off, there is probably insufficient tension on the web of the labels. The unwind tension adjustment collar should be moved in to put more tension on the web.
