7.3 Tool Kit Supplied with the Machine
A tool kit containing some tools are supplied
with the machine. These tools should be
adequate to set-up the machine, however,
other tools supplied by the customer will be
required for machine maintenance.
WARNING
• To reduce the risk associated with
mechanical and electrical hazards:
− Allow only properly trained and
qualifi ed personnel to operate and service
this equipment.
WARNING
• To reduce the risk associated with
muscle strain:
− Use the appropriate rigging and
material handling equipment when
lifting or repositioning this equipment.
− Use proper body mechanics when
removing or installing taping heads
that are moderately heavy or may be
considered awkward to lift.
7.4 Machine Set-Up / Bed Height
Adjust machine bed height. The case sealer is
equipped with four (4) adjustable legs that are
located at the corners of the machine frame. The
legs can be adjusted to obtain different machine
bed heights (See Specifi cations).
Refer to Figure 7-3 and set the machine bed height
as follows:
1.
Raise and block up the machine frame to allow
adequate leg adjustment.
2. Loosen, but do not remove, two (2) M8 x 1.25mm
socket head screws in one leg (use M6 hex
wrench). Adjust the leg length for the desired
machine bed height. Retighten the two screws
to secure the leg. Adjust all four (4) legs equally.

7.7 Completion of Taping Heads
See Manual 2 for Complete Instructions:
1. Place the Upper Taping Head in a convenient
working position
.2. Use Figure 7-8 and tape threading label.
Position the tape supply roll so the adhesive
side of tape is facing the front of the taping head
as it is pulled from the supply roll.
3. Attach the threading needle to the end of the
roll. Guide the threading needle around the wrap
roller (Position 1) then back around the oneway tension roller (Position 2).
4. Continue pulling the threading needle down and
guide it between the two (2) rollers on the apply
arm (Position 3).
5. Pull the threading needle down until the tape
travels between the apply plate and the ears of
the apply arm (Position 4) until it extends past
the applying roller. When properly threaded the
adhesive side of the tape should be facing the
knurled rollers at position 2 and also position 3.
6. Cut away any excess tape and repeat steps for
Lower Taping Head.
Important – Do not cut against the apply roller -
roller damage could occur.

Figure 7-9).
7.9 Preliminary Electric Inspection
Before connecting the machine to the mains please
carry out the following operations:
7.9.1 Make sure that the socket is provided with an
earth protection circuit and that both the mains
voltage and the frequency match the specifi -
cations on the name plate.
7.9.2 Check that the connection of the machine
to the mains meets the safety regulations in
your country.
7.9.3 The machine is fi tted with a main switch
and a circuit breaker. The user should check
that the electrical settings of the machine are
compatible with all the components of the
mains system.
7.10 Machine Connection to the Mains
For technical specifi cations: See Section 4 -
Specif cations
- Push the LATCHING EMERGENCY STOP
BUTTON.
- The main switch is normally turned OFF (O).
Connect the power cord supplied with the machine
to a wall socket using a plug which complies with the
safety regulations of your country.

8-THEORY OF OPERATION
8.1 Description of the Working Cycle
After having closed the top fl aps of the carton, the
operator pushes it under the top infeed end in order
to avoid the opening of the top fl aps. Further push-
ing causes the two top and bottom belts to drive the
box through the taping heads which automatically
seal the top and bottom seams. The carton is then
expelled on the exit conveyor.
8.2 Definition of Running Mode
The case sealer 200a3 has only one (automatic)
operating mode with:
- The EMERGENCY STOP BUTTON unlocked
(Figure 8-1)
- The main switch start switch “ON” (I)
(Figure 8-2)
Figure 8-1
8.3.1 Normal Stop Procedure
When the main switch is turned OFF (O), the machine stops immediately at any point of the working
cycle. The same thing happens in case of electrical
failure or when the machine is disconnected from the
mains.
8.3.2 Emergency Stop
The LATCHING EMERGENCY STOP BUTTON is
located on the top center of the machine
(Figure 8-1).
