STRAP JOINT APPEARANCE & FORMATION
A properly formed joint will
appear as shown in the
illustration to the right.
If the joint does not appear as shown, then the operator must proceed as follows:
!
Make sure that the tool's operating instructions are being followed before applying
another strap.
!
Make sure that tension has been applied to the straps before the sealer handle has
been actuated. Tension is necessary to ensure that the keys fully interlock.
After confirming the above, cut off the strap and apply another. If the joint still does not
appear as shown, then inspect the tool for worn and/or damaged parts. Replace tool parts
as needed. NEVER HANDLE OR SHIP ANY LOAD WITH IMPROPERLY FORMED JOINTS.
Misformed joints may not secure the load and could cause serious injury.
