loosen the adjusting screw locknut and position the adjusting screw. To move the indenta-
tions in the tape away from the reference edge of the tape, move the feed wheel towards
the front plate of the punch mechanism by rotating the adjusting screw counterclockwise.
To move the indentations in the. tape towards the reference edge of the tape. move the
