• Pressure sensitive film (without a release liner) from the top unwind shaft must be
fed over the splitter bar.
c. Pull the film forward until it almost reaches the in-feed table and apply it to the upper
roller.
If the film has a release liner:
• Peel off the release liner.
• Pull it up and stick it onto the cylinder on the wind-up shaft.
Now web the lower section
