The new marking requirements described in the European Norms define a marking with at least the following
information : - variable reference - assembly manufacturer's logo - the date code of the hose assembly (day/month/
year).
- Place the characters into the character carrier. Two screws enable you to tighten the characters in the
slot. Note: The use of a mirror may help to ensure the characters are assembled correctly.
- Slide the fixed character carrier (9) into position. Tighten the knob (10) .
- Place a ferrule or a fitting between both rollers (5). Check that the part receiving the ferrule's insert or
the end of the fitting is placed towards the operator (towards the lever), the coupling carriage (4) being in the middle
of its stroke.

USER GUIDE - MS5001
- Bring the characters near to the ferrule or the fitting as you lower the character carrier holder (9) down using
the raise/lower wheel (12) to bring the characters into contact with the ferrule or the fitting.
- Using the lever (7) move the coupling carriage (4) either to the right or left.
- Check the counter (3)
- Apply the marking pressure by turning the raise/lower wheel (12) clockwise to deduct 1.5 from the counter (3)
reading. Tighten the clamp (11).
- Turn the lever (7) from left to right or from right to left according to the initial position of the coupling carriage (4)
to mark the ferrule or the fitting.
NOTE
To unlock the character carrier holder (8), unscrew the clamp (11).

Periodically oil the teeth of the support column (2) and all the moving parts of the machine. This operation must
be carried out every two months.
