Step 2: Fixing the Assembled Take-up Unit to the Printer Stand

Procedure
  1. Make sure the printer stand screws are not loose.
    If they are loose, tighten them once again.
  2. Place the take-up unit on the stand.
    • When using the VG-640/540, SG-540/300, LEC2-300, LEC2-640/330, MG-640/300, UG-641
      Figure 1.

      Place the take-up device on the stand(LEC2、VG、SG)
    • When using the VF2-640, VG2-640/540, SG2-640/540/300
      1. Insert a bolt with washer (large) from the bottom into the hole on the right stand leg.
        There are two holes in the stand leg, but only insert the bolt in the hole on the stand post side.

        Attach bolts with washers to the stand legs
      2. Place the take-up unit on the stand.

        Place the take-up device on the stand(VF2、VG2、SG2)
      3. Note the following points and set the fixing location for the take-up unit.
        • Align the bolt with washer (large) inserted in step (1) with the hole in the right slider stay.
          Align the large bolt with the hole in the slider stay (right)
          MEMO If it is difficult to align the bolt with washer (large) with the hole in the right slider stay, adjust the right slider stay (A) and the stand leg to positions where their inside faces are pointed at each other. This brings the hole in the right slider stay (B) close to the position of the bolt with washer (large) and thereby makes it easy to align these parts.
          Align the bolt with the slider stay (front of the printer)
        • Place the left and right slider stays approximately 10 mm (0.39 in.) (C) away from the stand legs.
          Figure 2. Printer side

          Place the slider stay away from the stand legs

  3. Fix the left and right slider stays to the stand legs.
    • When using the VG-640/540, SG-540/300, LEC2-300, LEC2-640/330, MG-640/300, UG-641
      BracketB

      Mounting bracket B (2)

      BracketC

      Mounting bracket C (1)

      BracketD

      Mounting bracket D (1)

    1. While pushing mounting bracket C against the side of the stand leg, temporarily tighten the bolts with washers (small).
      Temporarily fix the mounting bracket C with bolts
    2. Use the hexagonal wrench (small) to temporarily tighten the bolts fixing the two instances of mounting bracket B to the left and right slider stays.
      MEMO Orient the two instances of mounting bracket B so their elongated holes are in the positions shown in the figures.

      Fix the mounting bracket B with bolts Slider stay (right)

    3. Push the take-up unit right next to the stand.
      Push the left and right slider stays (A) against the stand legs, and then push the two instances of mounting bracket B (B) against the stand legs (C).

      Press the take-up device so that it is in close contact with the stand
    4. While pushing mounting bracket C (A) against the stand leg, use the hexagonal wrench (small) to fully tighten the bolts with washers (small).

      Fully tighten the mounting bracket C with bolts
    5. Use the hexagonal wrench (small) to temporarily tighten the bolts fixing mounting bracket C (left side) to one instance of mounting bracket B and mounting bracket D (right side) to the other instance of mounting bracket B.
      Table 1.
      Left side Right side
      Attach mounting bracket C (B) to mounting bracket B (A) with bolts (small).

      Temporarily fix the mounting brackets C and D with bolts (left)

      Attach mounting bracket D (D) to mounting bracket B (A) with bolts (small) (C) and bolts with washers (E).

      Temporarily fix the mounting brackets C and D with bolts (right)

    6. While pushing the slider stays against the stand legs, fully tighten the bolts holding them in place.
      Table 2.

      BracketE

      Mounting bracket E (2)

    1. Use the hexagonal wrench (large) to temporarily tighten the bolts with washers (large) and additional washers in order, right slider stay followed by left slider stay.
      Tighten one bolt on the right side of the right slider stay and two bolts on the left side of the left slider stay.
      Temporarily tighten the slider stay with a large bolt with washer and a washer
      MEMO Before you proceed to the next operations, the machine must be adjusted by a suitably qualified worker. Leave this work to the suitably qualified worker.
    2. Fully tighten the bolts in order, right slider stay followed by left slider stay.
    3. Fix the take-up unit to the stand using mounting bracket E.
      Use the hexagonal wrench (large) to insert the bolts with washers (large) (A) and the bolts (large) (B).
      Secure the take-up device to the stand
      MEMO When fixing the take-up unit to the left stand, perform the work from the rear of the printer.
  4. Install the dancer roller.
    1. Insert the left and right arms of the dancer roller into the left and right shafts and align the positions of their holes.
    2. Temporarily tighten the bolts with washers (large) in order, right slider stay followed by left slider stay.
      Install the dancer roller
    3. Fully tighten the bolts in order, right slider stay followed by left slider stay.
