perform the following procedure if adhesive buildup begins to affect peel-off performance.
refer to figure 26.
1. open the printhead assembly.
2. close the value peel assembly (if open) to prevent bending the tear-off/peel-off bar during cleaning. use a swab or cue tip soaked with a solvent to remove adhesive from the tear-off/peel-off bar.
apply minimum force when cleaning the tear-off/peel-off bar! excessive force can cause the tear-off/peel-off bar to bend, which could have a negative effect on peel performance.
3. open the value peel assembly by pivoting the module toward you.
4. manually rotate the pinch roller and clean thoroughly with solvent and a swab.note: when cleaning the tear-off/peel-off bar or the pinch roller, remove excess solvent with a pad to ensure the solvent has dried before printing.
