(If the tape is stuck in the unit)
(If the tape is stuck in the unit)
1) Turn the Gear Worm 1 clockwise in the direction of arrow with a screwdriver. (See Fig. 2)
(Other method ; Remove the screw of Motor Load Ass’y, Separate the Motor Load Ass’y)
2) When Slider S, T approached the unloading position, rotate holder Clutch counterclockwise after inserting screwdriver in the frame’s bottom hole
in order to wind the unwound tape. (Refer to Fig. 3)
(If you rotate Gear Worm 1 continuously when tape is in state of unwinding, you may cause tape contamination by grease and tape damage. Be
sure to wind the unwound tape in the state of set horizontally.)
(If you rotate Gear Worm 1 continuously when tape is in state of unwinding, you may cause tape contamination by grease and tape damage. Be
