Remove outer unwind disk (A) install new label roll and replace disk. Route label web around idler roller (B). Thread label web through label sensor (C). Route label web around the bottom of roller (D). Route label under drag block, then wrap label web around peel plate (E), be sure not to thread the label web around the air assist tube. 6. Thread web around the bottom of roller (F) wrapping web around the traction roller (G) Rotate locking cam (J) counterclockwise allowing pinch roller to swing upward. Then route label between pinch roller (H). Then lock pinch roller back into place rotating the locking cam(J) clockwise. 7. Remove rewind clip from (I) and route web from pinch roller (H) to rewind mandrel and reattach rewind clip. Page 2.1

Unpack MSI TAL-3000T tamp labeler system from the shipping container. Inspect the labeler for damage during shipping. If damage is observed, please notify MSI before continuing. Place the labeler on a firm level surface. Plug the labeler into a 110 VAC 15 AMP (GROUNDED) Outlet. Note: Extension cords may result in improper labeler operation, and are not recommend by MSI.

General Pad Alignment 1. The horizontal gap (A) should range from 1/32-1/16, if not loosen the horizontal mounting bolts(E) and align to the acceptable range. 2. The vertical gap (B) should range from 0"-1/32", If not loosen the vertical mount bolts(D) and align to the acceptable range. Bolts “F” can be loosened to fine adjust the pad to the right or left on the web width. 3. The air assist tube (C) is used to assist the label out onto the vacuum pad. This tube creates a venturi affect, which keeps the label from falling down or being sucked up onto the tamp pad too soon. As a rule of thumb the blast pattern from this tube should be directed at a 30°angle to the vacuum pad. This angle may vary due to several factors, therefore different blast angles may have to be experimented with.

Tamp Pad Adjustment
4. On the under side of the machine, there is a flow control which varies the amount of air being applied to the label. If the label is falling off the air may not be blowing enough and if the label is flying of the pad it may be blowing too much. This adjustment should be made only if the label has been changed from the one setup at the factory.

Label Set Up
+
Peel Plate
Label Set Up: The label advance potentiometer resides on the top of the 3000T elecrtric box. This potentiometers purpose is to adjust the position of the label with respect to the peel plate. Rotating the pot to + will advance the label closer to the peel plate and – will stop the label sooner. Step#1 To set up label position rotate label advance pot to the - as far as it will rotate. Step#2 Dispense a label, if the label does not go out far enough, turn the pot to the + and repeat until the label goes out to edge of the peel plate but past the peel plate.

Adjusting Dwell Time: 1. Turn the labeler off, unplug the power cord from power source. 2. Remove the electric cover by removing the screws. 3. Locate the potentiometer (A & B) located on the electrical board. Potentiometer (A) is for the time for the tamp head to advance out, (B) is for the time for the tamp head to return back. 4. Clockwise makes the time longer, counter clockwise makes the time shorter. 5. If you need more time than it will adjust see page 2.12.

Pinch Roll Cam Lock Adjustment Cam Lock Traction Roller Pinch Roller
Adjustment is necessary if the backing paper is not being pulled through the labeler smoothly. Cam Lock Adjustment: Turn the Power off to labeler and unplug it from the power source. Unlock the cam as if you were going to thread the labeler. Remove the electrical housing cover. Insert allen wrench into the allen bolt in the cam lock. Locate the nut that is holding the cam lock. Insert a socket onto the nut and loosen it. Move the cam down towards the pinch roll. Remember you have to lock it so don’t move it down too far. 8. Tighten the cam lock nut and try it again. 9. Repeat if necessary.

TAKE-A-LABEL, Inc. Photo Eye Adjustment
Photo Eye Mode:
1. Insert liner only into the photo eye.
2. Press and hold the “normal” button for three seconds. The red light will shut off, then the green light will begin to flash. When the red light comes on the photo eye has been taught, release the button.

Tamp Head Speed
Speed Flow Control Adjustment Screws
Adjusting Tamp Head Speed: 1. To adjust the speed the the tamp head you need a long stright screw driver. 2. Turn the speed flow control screw clockwise makes the tamp travel slower. 3. Turn the speed flow control screw counter clockwise makes the tamp travel faster. 4. One side is for the tamp head extend, the other side is for the tamp head return.

Maintenance Procedures
Section #3
3000T System General Maintenance Cleaning Instructions:
A. Label rollers: The rollers should be cleaned and checked for wear every 500 hours of operation. The rollers can be cleaned with a mild detergent or isopropyl alcohol. B. Label Sensor: The photoelectric label sensor should be inspected every 500 hours of operation or if erratic label placement becomes a problem. Air blow off is recommended for cleaning fiber optic ends. C. Pinch Roller: The pinch roller should be inspected for unwanted debris every time the system is re-threaded. Isopropyl alcohol should be used to remove adhesive build up. NOTE: never use a knife or any other sharp object to remove labels or adhesive, damage to roller will occur. D. Traction Roller: The traction roller be inspected for unwanted debris every time the system is re-threaded. Isopropyl alcohol should be used to remove adhesive build up.

General Maintenance
A
A. Peel Plate: The peel edge should be inspected for wear every 500 hours of operation and for adhesive buildup every time the system is re threaded.
B. Unwind Felt Slip Disk: This braking surface should be periodically checked to ensure that the felt disk is clean and dry. If this disk has excessive dirt or oil replace with part #31065.
