Depending on the type of material, it may be necessary to make DIP switch settings on the PNC-960. To do this, first switch of the
power to the unit, then set DIP switch SW-9 to ON if loading piece material, or to OFF if loading roll material. After making the
setting, turn the PNC-960 back ON. On the PNC-910, it is not necessary to make any DIP switch settings.
The grit rollers on the PNC-960 are divided into four areas that can secure the material with the pinch rollers. Also, The grit rollers
on the PNC-910 are divided into two separate areas. The range of movement is determined by the movable pinch rollers on the left
and right (see "Reference"). Experiment with the range of the left and right movable pinch rollers to determine usable area.
When loading a material, first place it atop the grit rollers and make sure that it is positioned where it can be secured by the pinch
rollers.
