(1) Lower the sheet loading levers to raise the movable pinch rollers on the left and right, and move each of the pinch rollers all the way
to its respective side.
(2) Either cut the sheet to the required length, or set the sheet base included with the PNC-950 at the back of the unit, place a rolled
sheet on the sheet base. It is important to pull out the amount of sheet required for the intended design.
Pass the end of the sheet between the pinch rollers and the grit rollers so that it extends from the front of the unit.

(3) Move the sheet from side to side and align the left edge of the sheet with the guide lines to the front and rear of the grit rollers.
Make sure at this time that both edges of the sheet lie over the grit rollers. (See “Reference -- Sheet Loading Position” on page 8.)

(4) Move the left and right movable pinch rollers to the two edges of the sheet. If a pinch roller does not move easily, it may help to
grasp the corresponding pinch roll frame (refer to illustration of step (3) ) at the back of the unit and move it together with the pinch
roller.
If you have placed a rolled sheet on the sheet base, make sure that the sheet is placed so that the left and right edges of the sheet both
come straight out through the PNC-950.
(5) After positioning the pinch rollers, raise the sheet loading levers at the rear of the unit to lower the pinch rollers and secure the sheet in
place. Do not put the pinch rollers on the end of the sheet when doing this.
(6) Press the SETUP key.
The tool carriage moves to the cutting origin point.
(7) Press the
key to feed out the length of sheet to be cut to the front of the PNC-950.
Press the
key to return the sheet back through to the rear of the unit.
The tool carriage returns to the origin you set in step (6).
(8) Check alignment during the test to make sure it is free of offset and alignment problems, diagonal feed problems, and pinch roller
handling problems. If there are any problems, the sheet was not loaded straight. Reload the sheet so that it is aligned straight.
