6.2.1 Preliminary Checks
Before placing the WEXXAR Model WF-10T Case Former into operation, check the following
points:
•
Is the machine set correctly for the case size? Scales showing the required settings are
located on the machine, and provide an easy quick check. If adjustments are required,
please refer to Section 7:
‘Case Size Adjustments’
of this manual.
•
Is the magazine properly loaded with cases.
•
Is sufficient air pressure available? Check that the gauge reads 90 PSI on the regulator.
The manual shutoff valve must be
OPEN
.
•
Are all guards properly closed, and all personnel clear?
•
Is the electrical power disconnect switch turned
ON
? The Black operating lever should
be in a vertical position. Are the
‘EMERGENCY STOP’
buttons in the
OUT
position?
Turn clockwise or pull out to release.
•
Is the tape applicator on the WF-10T properly installed, loaded with a tape roll, and ready
to go? The end of the tape should be on the front roller, with the sticky side facing the
incoming case. For complete tape installation instructions, see the separate Dekka Tape
Head Manual that is supplied with this machine. If your machine came with a non-
standard tape head, refer to the appropriate tape head manual.
•
Does the touchscreen display the desired mode of operation? The normal mode of
operation allows
AUTOMATIC CYCLE
operation. The special
JOG
mode is intended for
operator training or troubleshooting.
WARNING!
Note that when the machine is first switched on, the
jawplates and carriage will cycle once automatically.
