7. Foil/Film Loading
Loading the ALPS 3000 with heat sealing film:
We recommend the unit be cold when loading the film to minimize the possibility of personal injury. To
allow the film to be threaded through the system, the air and electrical supply must be connected and
turned on to open the foil gripper and foil clamp assembly, .
The electrical power must be connected to load the foil/film.
• 7.1 - Ensure the power is on the unit, enter the setup menu, which will then display an option to
load foil.
• 7.2 - Press the load foil button, this will open the foil gripper and foil clamp allowing you to insert
the foil loading tool through the plate shuttle access to machine.
• 7.3 - Slide the tool through the foil gripper, then through the cutting section and finally bring the tool
out to the rear of the machine, this is best carried out by placing the foil loading tool flat on the plate
shuttle, with no plate present, then sliding the foil loading tool carefully through the machine.
• 7.4 - Allow one turn of the roll as slack, to feed through the unit.
• 7.5 - Fold the foil end into a point, alternatively the foil may also be cut to a point.
• 7.6 - Insert folded point into the slot in the loading tool, ensuring that the foil is not twisted, with
the sealing surface facing away from the machine.
• 7.7 - Carefully pull the foil loading tool through the machine and ensure that it is sitting flat and
central.
• 7.8 - Remove foil from the loading tool.
• 7.9 - Keeping a firm hold of the foil, press the trim foil button on the display and slowly pull the foil
away from the machine, keeping your hand out of the machine.
