Function
of
the
Operating
Gontrols

material
position
on
the tape.

by
pressing the
zero
reset
button
on its right.
Reel turntable
7" reel
is
the maximum

Tension arm
- sensing
post
This functions
not only
to take up the
slack
in the tape
when
starting and
stopping but acts
to maintain
a
constant tension
on
the tape although
the
winding
diameter will change
as
tape travels from
reel to reel.
The tension arm
also contains
the sensing
contacts
to
provide
the automatic
reverse function.
Guide
post
This hard stainless steel
guide post, working in combina-
tion
with the tension arm, acts as a mechanic-al
filter to
absorb
vibrations
due
to
irregular unwinding
of tape
caused
by sticking to the
supply
reel,
or
unstable
travel
of tape
by
uneven
windings on the reel.
