9.6. Maintenance of the clamp guide
During checks and maintenance of the clamp guide special attention must be paid to
the clamping and cutting edges of the cutting plate. They should have sharp edges or
have a slight radius of max. 05 mm. Strongly rounded edges cause the slipping of the
strap during the tensioning operation or a strong formation of burr during cutting.

and flaps

for
wear and replace elements, if required. Further, paint, wax and dirt residues on the
strap guidance positioned inside must be removed.
When strapping material is welded, residues of burnt wax and paint particles which
might impair the readiness of ignition of the electrode are formed on the base plate.
Those residues must be removed from the base plate by means of a wire brush
regularly (once a month)
(fig. 16)
