THERMISTOR TEMPERATURE CONTROL
•
Due to the rapid response of the seal plate and residual heat that can remain from previous cycles, a
thermistor is incorporated as a temperature control device. The heat cycle can be shorter than 3 seconds
when residual heat is present in the seal plate. The thermistor is located inside of the seal plate assembly.
FILM THREADING - CRADLE MOUNT
• There is a film threading diagram located on the right side of the unit.
• Film threading is very important to achieve proper film tension.
• Route the bottom film first.
• Facing the tension knob side of the machine, the film should come off the roll counter-clockwise and go in-
between the two rollers it sits on.
• Pull film under the film guide roller, and up through the film selector rollers, starting with the nearest slot to
the hot plate first.
• The black tension knobs can be adjusted for proper tension on the film by loosening or tightening the knob.
ADJUSTING FOR DIFFERENT WIDTH FILMS
• Squeeze the metal clips and push the white plastic guides until they are up against the sides of the film roll.
These help keep the roll centered.
BEFORE CLEANING, TURN OFF THE UNIT, UNPLUG AND LET THE MACHINE COOL DOWN
NON-STICK COVER & SEAL PLATE
•
Due to the advancement of this technology, it is important to keep the non-stick cover in good condition. It
is recommended to replace the non-stick cover at least once every three months to protect the seal plate
and maintain a sanitary surface. The seal plate has been designed to provide long life performance when
it is properly maintained. The seal plate should not be used as a cutting surface, any punctures will render
the seal plate ineffective and void the warranty.
•
The non-stick cover is used to create a sanitary, stick free sealing surface. Non-stick covers are porous, so
liquid can permeate the cover and burn off on the hot plate.
•
The non-stick cover should be replaced if the surface is soiled, or holes, punctures, excessive wear, or
damage is present.
