Operating Instructions
I M P O R T A N T
Read this manual before turning the power on. Failure to follow the instructions in this
manual could result in damage to the machine and/or dies. Uneven forming of the
component leads and/or machine failure could result.
Requirements
• The component reel tape must be sturdy enough to maintain adequate component pitch to
prevent improper component feeding. If tape integrity is acceptable, the component body
will be supported and stress will not be placed on leads during lead forming.
• Taped component leads must be straight to prevent misfeeding and unacceptable lead
forms. GPD's Component Detection System identifies bent components and stops
machine operations to prevent die breakage. Refer to the CF-9 Accessories appendix.
Suggestions
• Use quality components on quality tape.
• Planning prior to lead forming operations is suggested as this enables users to quickly
produce the maximum number of components for a given system configuration.
W A R N I N G

machine's moving mechanisms while in operation. Failure to do so may result in bodily
injury or damage to the machine.
