1.1 Manufacturing Specifi cations / Description / Intended Use
The 3M-Matic™ Model 800rf Type 40800 Automatic Random Case Sealer with AccuGlide™ 3 Taping Heads is
designed to accept fi lled, regular slotted containers from an existing conveyor, fold the top fl aps, and apply a “C”
clip of Scotch™ brand Pressure-Sensitive Film Box Sealing Tape to the top and bottom center seams. Two sidedrive belt assemblies convey the cases through the machine.
The 800rf Case Sealer is to be used with infeed and exit conveyors supplied by the customer.
Do not attempt to run the case sealer without infeed and exit conveyors in place.

1-INTRODUCTION (continued)
1.1 Manufacturing Specifi cations / Description /
Intended Use (continued)
The 800rf Case Sealer is controlled from two operator
control panels located on the front left side of the case
sealer. These control panels (Electrical Control Panel
and Pneumatic Control Panel) have the most-used
controls within easy reach of the operator. The case
sealer is microprocessor-based and fi rmware con-
trolled to maintain maximum and precise control over
all operations within the case sealer.
The case sealer may be operated in Random, Fixed,
or Bypass mode. A selector switch is located on the
top of the Electrical Control Panel.
• In Random mode, the case sealer automatically adjusts itself for a wide range of case sizes,
providing a tape seal on the top and bottom of the
cartons. Random mode is considered the standard operating mode.
• In Fixed mode, the case sealer runs multiple
cartons of the same (fi xed) size, providing a tape
seal on the top and bottom of the cartons.
• In Bypass mode, the case sealer passes certain
containers through the machine, providing a tape
seal only on the bottom of the containers. The top
of these containers is not sealed.

5.3 Handling and Transportation of Uncrated
Machine
The uncrated machine should not be moved except for
short distances and indoors ONLY. Without the supporting pallet, the machine is exposed to damage and
may cause injuries. To move the machine use belts or
ropes, paying attention to place them in the points indicated using care to not interfere with the lower taping
head (Figure 5-3).
5.4 Storage of the Packed or Unpacked Machine
If the machine is not used for a long period,
please take the following precautions:
- Store the machine in a dry and clean place.
- If the machine is unpacked it is necessary to
protect it from dust.
- Do not stack anything over the machine.

6-UNPACKING
6.1 Uncrating
The envelope attached to the shipping box contains
the uncrating instructions of the machine (Figure 6-1).
Figure 6-1
Cut straps. Cut out staple positions along the bottom
of the shipping box or remove staples with an
appropriate tool (Figure 6-2).
Removal of Pallet
Loosen and remove nuts and brackets using the
open end spanner supplied in the tool box (Figure 6-4).
Figure 6-4
A cardboard box is located under the machine body.
Retrieve the instruction manual for additional procedures of the set up. The box also contains parts re-
moved for shipping, spare parts and tools.
Cut the stretch fi lm and remove the control board, the
guards panel and the accessories box.
Figure 6-2
After cutting out or removing the staples, lift the
shipping box in order to clear the machine
(two persons required).
Figure 6-3
Transport the machine with a fork-lift truck to the operating position. Lift the pallet at the point indicated by
labels on the front, back, and right side of the machine
Figure 6-3 (weight of machine + pallet =
See Specifi cations).

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 Positioning / Bed Height
Lift the machine with belts or ropes paying attention
to place the belts in the points (Figure 7-2).
To set the machine bed height, do the following:
The legs on the case sealer can be adjusted to obtain
different bed heights from the factory set-point. The
bed height can be set from 25-7/8 inches [657mm]
minimum through 32 inches [815mm] maximum. Set
the bed height as follows:
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.
The crate should also contain the following:
• One warning beacon with bracket (electrically
connected, but not mounted in place)
Figure 7-2
1. Block up the case sealer frame to allow adequate
leg adjustment.
2. Using a 6mm hex key wrench, loosen, but do not
remove, two (2) M8 x 16mm socket-head cap
screws in one leg. Refer to Figure 7-3.
3. Using the height label as a guide, adjust the leg
length to the desired conveyor bed height. Retighten the two (2) screws to secure the leg.
4. Adjust the remaining legs in the same way.
