5.4.4 Presetting the tension
To enable the film to unwind without wrinkles tension (brake) can be set to the roll.
On the right-hand (control panel) side of the machine you will find a tension control ring on each
shaft. Turn the tension control ring counter-clockwise (top to rear) to set the tension or clockwise
(top to front) to release the tension.
When the film is webbed, it is recommended to set a low tension to each shaft by turning the ring
counter-clockwise until you feel some resistance. This will prevent film from unwinding without
tension.
