MACHINE OPERATION
Before Starting Machine Operation
Verify that the machine is properly connected to the electrical source. The electrical
requirements depend on the machine type and features. For this information, please see the
machine electrical diagram provided with the machine operation manual. The control panel
layout for the machine is shown on the drawing.
CAUTION : Before preceding the machine operation familiarize yourself with the
EMERGENCY-STOP button and all functions, switches and pushbuttons.
POWER SWITCH
Located on the panel door or side of the panel box, the lockable power switch has two
settings:
ON - connects a power source to the machine
OFF - disconnects the power source.
START AND EMERGENCY STOP SWITCHES
The START switch is used to start the cycle once the load is on the turntable. The cycle
may be stopped on by pressing the STOP button (may also be used for the choosing the
range of counts of the top and bottom wraps - see TOP WRAPS and BOTTOM WRAPS).
NOTICE: In case of emergency, the push-pull STOP button interrupts the entire machine
electrical circuits. To continue the cycle the STOP push button should be pulled out and
START button pressed for the machine restarting. Double pressing of the push – pull STOP
button will reset the machine program and machine will be ready to apply the wrapping
cycle from its beginning.
