5.3 Automatically tensioning and welding*
By a brief pulling (touching) of the tensioning button once, the sealing process
(tensioning and welding) will be activated. Once the set tension force has been
reached, the straps are automatically welded and the upper strap is cut off.
* This operating mode AUTO = Fully automatic strapping is factory blocked! Activation only through your
ErgoPack service partner possible.
5. Step
The tensioning and sealing of the strap is
different according to the set mode (manual,
semi-automatic or automatic mode) (see also
section 7.7.).
5.1 Manual tensioning and sealing
Pull the tensioning button (Fig. 71) until the
required tension force is reached (see also
section 7.5).
Thereafter, press the round welding button (Fig.
72) to weld both straps and to cut off the upper
one.
5.2 SEMI-Semi-automatic tensioning and
sealing
Pull the tensioning button (Fig. 71) until the pre-
set tension force is reached. Afterwards, both
straps will be automatically welded and the
upper strap will be cut off. You can also weld the
straps manually at any time by pressing the
welding button even if the pre-set tension force
was not reached.

Warning!
Strap tensioning or strapping, danger of jamming and crushing
Do not place hands or other body parts between the strap and the packaged
goods during the strapping process. Ensure that there are no other persons in
the hazard zone.
For an emergency stop in the case of danger (trapped person):
To release the strap tension (before welding), actuate the rocker lever, the
tensioning or welding button. After welding, cut the strap using a tool (strap
cutter).
