Thank you

My issue was the tape would start jamming as the roll was almost finished. Pushing up the metal plate near the brushes fixed it as shown in the video.

I'm having issues with the crimper. Tape jams with crimper but without it works just fine. Anyone know how to resolve this? I've cleaned every part very well including the crimper.

Thank you sir!

Do you sell these machines or just service them?

My machine at work has a tape jam every time the tape roll gets around a half inch left. I see no logical explanation for that as to "cleaning" the machine. Any ideas?

[@davidabram2304]

same problem.. if by "half inch left" you mean approximately 1-2" diameter of roll left on the tape.

For anyone that might see this; I had the same problem, and it turned out to be a combination of the shears being really dull and the spring in the front the pulls down the upper shear to cut the tape not having enough tension strength. I fixed it by putting in a new shear set and putting some rubber tube on each hook on the spring to stretch the spring a little more. A new spring might have also fixed it or maybe putting zip ties on the spring to compress some of it while it is stretched to create more tension.
