    3. Position brass guides by visually aligning inner guides with edges of SE-LIN label surface.
    4. Pull the end of the clear tape over the guide bar.
    5. Apply the adhesive side of the clear tape to the SE-LIN label surface, aligning it by eye as carefully as possible.
    6. Feed the combined label and tqape through the pressure rollers a few inches by turning the hand wheel.
    7. Turn power on. Press the Line Feed button on the computer printer several times to check the alignment of the overlay tape to the SE-LIN surface. Alignment typically improves as labels are run.

  • Taking Care of your SE-LIN Plus II Electronic Label Laminator

    1. Once aligned, you will not have to alter the width adjustments on the tractor feeds and brass guides again unless you are using multiple widths of label stock.
    2. To clean, scrape adhesive away from the roller with a soft cloth and general purpose adhesive cleaner. Use adhesive cleaner sparingly to avoid spillage onto the rubber roller.
    3. The tension on the rollers should be released on a daily basis to prevent the upper roller from gradually leaving a permanent indentation on the bottom rubber roller. Loosening two to three turns should be satisfactory. Adjustment knobs can be tightened until shoulder of screw contacts casting.
