Settings
The plastic film must set correctly in t he cut and hold system so that it will function properly.
As it is the folding arm that d etermines the position that the film is p laced to be cut correctly
the following settings will serve to adjust this component:
•
The height of the folding arm;
•
The angle of the stainless steel arm compared to the ground.
It is best if all of these adjustments are carried out before putting on the roll of plastic.
Warning!
When you are running th
e wrapper in manual
mode, it is po ssible that the folding arm may come
in co ntact with the receiv ing table of the wrapper.
To avoid collisions, completely raise the folding arm
before turning the table of the wrapper.
