OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT
3.4 C80006 PULL TRACTOR
The optional C80006 pull tractor provides optimum continuous paper handling. The pull tractor is especially
useful with continuous multi-part forms and labels.
3.4.1 PULL TRACTOR OPERATION
When using the push-pull feed method, fit the paper holes onto the pins along the sprocket wheel and also
onto the tractor pins along the tractor belt. The paper-feed motor is driven, via the pinion on the motor’s
shaft, to rotate the gears in the direction shown in Figure 3-13. The gears, in turn, rotate the sprocket wheels
and tractor belt, advancing the paper in the direction indicated by the arrow.
Shifting the release lever forward moves the feed rollers away from the platen and releases the feed.
