MODEL HWS4 HAND WRAP STATION
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL
The HWS4 is a wrapping station for use with PVC films (not supplied by Hobart). A scale and printer
are installed with the unit to weigh, wrap, and label packages. Included is a U.L. listed outlet strip
suitable for connecting the hot plate (used to seal the wrapping film) and the scale and printer. The
outlet strip should be connected to a properly grounded 115 V. 60 Hz. 1 Ph. dedicated circuit with
capacity of 15 amps. The wrap station may be installed with printer on either the right or left side.
Printer location should be specified prior to assembly of unit. The wrapping station accommodates two
rolls of PVC stretch wrap film (3" diameter core) up to 20" wide.
Film is cut by a heated cut-off rod which melts the film on contact. Packages are sealed with the
thermostatically controlled hot plate.
Adjustable feet provide leveling, stability, and/or minor height adjustment.
INSTALLATION
Assembly and installation of the HWS4 by a qualified Hobart service technician is included with
purchase price.
