SEALING OPERATION
This tool is a Tension Weld® type sealer. A properly made joint will appear as shown in the
illustration. If the joint does not appear as shown, then the operator must proceed as follows:
1. Insure that the tool operating instructions are being
followed before applying another strap.
2. Cut the strap off and apply another.
A good weld will show some material displacement
along the edges.
The welded area should extend the full length and width of the gripper impression.
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.
TOOL ADJUSTMENT - WELD TIME
Weld time has been factory adjusted to provide acceptable weld strength when using High
Strength Tenax (polyester) type strap.
Weld time may need to be adjusted due to air supply differences, tool wear, etc. Adjustments are
made by turning the small slotted screw, located beneath the weld housing at the rear of the tool,
using a small screwdriver. Turn the screw clockwise to increase weld time and counterclockwise
to decrease weld time.
Establishing the correct weld time is a matter of trial and error and should be conducted as
follows.
1. Adjust the screw in 1/16 to 1/8 turn
increments only.
2. Apply a strap and make a weld.
3. Compare the weld made with the illustrations
shown above. A good weld will displace
some material along the outer edges of the
joint.
4. If you are unable to produce an acceptable
joint or if you have any questions as to
whether your tool is producing good weld
strength, contact -your Signode Sales
Representative.
