Quick Start Guide 

 

Thank You for Purchasing an Orion Flex Stretch Wrapper! 

Your new FLEX stretchwrapper was designed to get up and running quickly upon 
delivery. This guide will help you begin using your machine effectively by providing step 
by step instructions in the basic operations of the machine. More advanced capabilities 
are described in the manual. For your convenience, there is an 
interactive on-screen troubleshooting guide under the Diagnostics 
screen. You can download the complete manual, electrical prints, 
and mechanical drawings at this location:

Unpacking 

  Remove skidding/ packaging materials.  

  Please inspect the machine for any fasteners that may have loosened in 

shipping. Although this is highly unlikely, long delivery distances may have an 
effect on fastener torque. 

  Inspect for any obvious shipping damage and report to your machine provider. 

(HPA, HPD, LPA, LPD) Carriage Obstacle Detect Error 
Recovery 

  When the obstacle detect error occurs, the brake must be released. 

  To release the brake, pull outward on the carriage strap on the front side of the 

tower until the brake releases. 

  Align the limit switch on the inside of the tower with the center of the strap.
