Maintenance
The BB-2 Industrial Case Taping System will provide many hours of maintenance free
operation. There are a few items that may require attention from time to time.
Rollers
Make sure rollers stay clean and grease free. If you should have to clean the rollers
simply wipe them down with a clean lint free cloth. If a more thorough cleaning is
necessary wipe the rollers down with a mild detergent and water and let dry.
Never use
harsh or abrasive cleaners or chemical agents when cleaning the rollers.
Cutting Knives
Occasionally inspect the cutting knives to ensure they are clean and free of adhesive
residue. Make sure the cutting knife is sharp by inspecting cuts in the tape. Cuts should
be straight and neat. If the quality of cuts is eroding, the knife blade is dull and should
be replaced.
Changing Knife Blades
Turn off and unplug the taper before inspecting or changing the knife blades.
CAUTION! Always be aware of the cutting edges while replacing
the knife blades. Handle the knife blades carefully.
