Installation
Carefully unpack the outer carton and shipping material. Although the exterior of the
bundling tunnel is coated with a custom two-part epoxy finish that resists scratching,
avoid denting, scratching, or otherwise damaging the oven exterior.
Lift the machine up and off of the shipping pallet.
CAUTION!
ET Performance Series Bundling Tunnels are heavy and may
require a forklift, floor crane, or several people to move the
machine safely. Use proper equipment when lifting the
bundling tunnel and ensure it is secure and will not shift
while being moved off the shipping pallet.
Place the bundling tunnel in the desired location with the required electrical power
source available. (See power requirements for the specific model in the Specifications
table.) Make sure the electrical wiring is adequate to provide the required voltage. If the
voltage provided is too low, the equipment will not operate correctly.
Selecting the proper location is one of the most important considerations for initial
setup. When selecting the location, take into consideration the following factors.
1. Adequate power supply nearby?
2. Where is the bundling tunnel in relation to the power source?
3. Where is the bundling tunnel in relation to the sealer and any conveyor(s)
necessary to move wrapped and bundled (finished) product? (Alignment with
packaging line.)
4. Convenience for the operator.
Note:
Avoid locating the bundling tunnel in cold or drafty areas, as
heat may be unintentionally drawn from the tunnel and
reduce its efficiency.
If there is any doubt, get qualified assistance with your initial installation.
