OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Set strap feed length: Determine the length of strap
needed. Set control for 0-6. Lengths listed in meters.
1 = 3 ft. of strap. Example: for 6 ft. of strapping, set the
control at "2". (See Figure 3)
2. Turn power ON. Allow machine to heat up 3-4 minutes.
Strap won’t seal if heating blade is not hot enough.
(See Figure 3)
3. Pre-feed the strap: Press and hold the FEED button until the
desired length of strap feeds out. (See Figure 3)
NOTE: Pre-feeding is only necessary after
installing a new strap coil or finishing a coil.
4. Strapping the package:
a. Place package on the machine against the package
guide. (See Figure 4)
b. Pass strap around package and insert the strap end
into the strap inlet to start the strapping tensioning
and heat sealing cycle. (See Figure 5)
c. Strap tensions, heat seals and cuts. Remove package.
d. Timer resets, strap feeds out and machine is ready for
the next package.
5. Turn power OFF.
MOTOR TIMER
The timer is located on the printed circuit box (PCB Box). If your
machine runs for a long time between packages, turn the
timer down. If the machine is used more frequently, turn the
timer up so the motor isn’t starting and stopping all the time.
