How to install new die plates in an automatic date and time stamp

• New die plates need to be adjusted.  They always need to be adjusted.
• To do this:  Back the plate screws out two turns. 
• Cut a piece of paper (use someones business card, that's the right thickness) just narrow enough to fit behind the plate, between the screws.
• Slide it behind the plate. 
• Be careful not to slide it so far forward that it touches the print wheels. 
• Tighten the screws and test.
• You will probably have to add or delete more paper, moving it to the center,
  left, and/or right as needed to make it print better. 
• Adjusting the plates is both an art and a science.
• Order the plates with a new machine or service, and we will do it for you.
