Using the tattoo machine
6.1
Setting the needle depth
CAUTION
Risk of injury from excessive needle
depth
A large needle depth permits a deep pierc-
ing depth. If needle depth and piercing
depth are excessive, this can damage the
subcutaneous layer.
Start with just a short length of needle
E
depth.
Start the tattoo machine.
E
Adjust the needle depth while the ma-
E
chine is switched on; to do this, turn
the grip.
Turning clockwise increases the needle
depth:
max.

Turning counterclockwise reduces the
needle depth:
min.
Check the needle depth status of the
E
machine.
If the needle depth status is altered acci-
dentally during operation because the
grip does not remain fixed in position,
clean the inside of the grip, the thread of
the drive, the grooves and the small o-
ring thoroughly (see chapter 7.5 on
page 40). If the problem continues, re-
place the small o-ring as well (see chap-
ter 7.7 on page 40). If the problem still
persists, consult your local specialist re-
tailer.
6.2
Setting the stitch frequency
CAUTION
Risk of injury due to high stitch frequency
If the stitch frequency is too high, the skin
can be cut.
Always start at a low stitch frequency.
E
Start the tattoo machine.
E
Set an appropriate stitch frequency.
E
The stitch frequency must suit the
characteristics of the customer's skin,
the needle depth and the individual
piercing depth when working, as well
as the operating speed.
6.3
Setting the stroke
CAUTION
The stroke setting changes the needle
depth
If needle depth and piercing depth are ex-
cessive, this can damage the subcuta-
neous layer.
Each time after adjusting the stroke,
E
re-adjust the needle depth.
