Figure 6-4 – Box and Machine Bed Height Range
WARNING – Turn off electrical power and air supply and disconnect power cord from
electrical supply before beginning Special Set-Up Procedure. If power cord is not
disconnected, severe injury to personnel could result.
Box and Machine Bed Height Range – Refer to Figure 6-4
Moving the outer columns up one set of mounting holes increases the maximum box size handled by the
700r case sealer and decreases the minimum machine bed height. Note – This also increases the minimum
box height from 120 mm [4.8 inch] to 170 mm [6.8 inch].
To move the outer columns up one set of mounting holes:
1. Lift the upper taping head/drive assembly up and place a 200 - 250 mm [8 - 10 inch] block at the front and
rear of the upper drive assembly. Important – Blocks (front and rear) must be same height in order to
keep upper drive assembly parallel with machine bed. Also, block both columns up with solid spacers
between outer columns and floor. See Figure 6-4A.
2. Remove and retain the six screws and plain washers that fasten each column to the frame. Figure 6-4B.
3. Lift the outer columns up one set of mounting holes, (100 mm [4 inch]) and place 100 mm [4 inch] spacers
between the blocks on the floor and each column. See Figure 6-4C.
4. Install and tighten the six screws and plain washers in each column that were removed in Step 2. Turn on air
supply , raise and lock upper drive assembly in fully raised position and remove all blocks and spacers.
If desired, the bed height can now be decreased to 570 mm [22.5 inch] by adjusting legs upward. (See
"Installation and Set-Up – Machine Bed Height", Page 13.)
WARNING – Blocks and spacers must be capable of supporting the 45.4 Kg [100 pound]
weight of the outer columns and upper taping head assembly.
