LOADING SPOOLS OF STRAPPING
The retaining discs are multi-tiered to accept 16” x 3”, 16” x 6”, or 8” x 8” spools of either steel or
polyester strapping material. The following steps describe how to load a spool into the spool holding
mechanism.
STEP 1: Inspect the cart according to the
INSPE CTIO NS instructions on p. 5.
STEP 2: Lay the cart on the ground with
the outer retaining disc facing upwards.
STEP 3: Unwind the wing nut and remove
the outer retaining disc.
STEP 4: Install a selected spool of strapping
material. Orient the spool with the
strapping wound counterclockwise around
the spool. Center the core of the spool on
the threaded rod. Install the rod extension if
the spool of strapping material is wider than
3 inches. To install the extension, wind the
rod coupler onto the end of the threaded
rod and then tighten the set screw. Refer to
FIG. 1. NOTE : The threaded rod will
accommodate spools up to 3 inches wide.
STEP 5: Feed the end of the strapping
material between the upper and lower
rollers of the guide wheel assembly (45-645-
003) as shown in FIG. 2.
STEP 6: Reattach the outer
retaining disc and wing nut.
STEP 7: Feed the strapping material
behind the roller with bushing (21-
527-002) which is attached to the
base plate (45-514-040). Pull the
strapping material through the
channel in the strap arms (inner
and outer). Pull up on the D-ring
and feed the strapping
underneath the gripper (D-ring is
welded to the top of the gripper).
See FIG. 3.
DISPENSING STRAP MATERIAL
Move the cart by grasping the operator handle and pushing the cart (not pulling) to the work
location. Do not traverse sloped terrain with the cart unless you can easily maintain control of the cart.
Always remain uphill of the cart whenever traveling up or down slopes.
The strap arm should span the width and length of your pallet. Adjust the length of the strap arm, if
necessary, by loosening the threaded knob. Pull the end of the inner strap arm. Align the appropriate
bolt hole in the inner arm with the bolt hole in the outer arm and reinstall the knob. Once arm length
adjustment is finished, align the strap arm with a fork channel in the pallet. Push the cart forward until the
arm projects through the fork channel. Lift the D-ring, grasp the end of the strapping material, and slowly
and steadily pull the strapping. The spool holding mechanism (inner and outer discs and threaded rod)
rotates as strapping is dispensed. Do not pull quickly and forcefully on the end of the strapping
because the spool holder will over rotate and dispense too much strapping.
Change spools of strapping by applying the LOADING SPOOLS OF STRAPPING instructions.
Attach the snap hook to the D-ring to secure the strap arm in the upright/storage position. Only use
the snap hook to hold the strap arm in the upright position.
