Note: Generally, snipe problems occur when pressure rollers are set too low. Less frequently, this problem occurs as a result
of too much tension in the pressure rollers. It is thus possible that, although you adjusted the height of the rollers, you still
get snipe on your board. If this is the case, adjust the tension of the rollers. Proceed as follows:
1. To access the set screw and micro-adjustment
spring, unlock the drum cover latch, , and open
the top cover, .
2. Using the 2 mm T-handle Allen key provided, sli-
ghtly turn the set screws, , at each end of the
corresponding pressure roller(s) to be adjusted.
3. Close the top cover, plug in the machine and run a test piece though to check for snipe.
4. If needed, continue adjusting the height of the pressure rollers until you get no more snipe on your board.
