GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
Be sure the following safety instructions are read, understood and become a part of daily practice when
operating or maintaining the closer.
1. Do not attempt to operate the closer until you understand its function. Study the manual carefully.
2. Keep all foreign material away from the drive system.
3. Keep fingers out of the closer and printer and away from any moving parts.
4. The printer cover must be in the closed position before applying power to and operating the closer / printer.
Electrical power should be disconnected from the closer while the printer cover is open.
5. Disconnect the power cord before making any adjustments or maintenance. Moving the switch to the “STOP”
position does not remove power from many electrical components, nor does it disable the motor.
All adjustments, except as noted, are to be made with power disconnected.
6. The closer is normally operated from a counter or table. While the closer is very stable when operated from a
flat a solid surface, care should be taken not use it in a way that could cause it to tip or fall from the operating
surface.
Kwik Lok 086B Models 100, 200, 200P, 600, 600P Closers are and certified.
The 086B Model 700P is not certified.

Operation
P 2.1
A. OPERATING SEQUENCE:
(Figure 2.1)
The closer is ready to run when the closure is in
closing position, with both the power switch and the
run switch in the ”ON” position, and the ”READY”
light is on. When the closed bag and closure are removed from the closure track, the machine completes the closing cycle placing the next closure in
the closing position. The machine is again ready for
the next bag. During the completion of the closing
cycle the ”READY” light will go off momentarily.
If no closure is available to move into the closing
position, the machine will continue to cycle and the
”READY” light will flash repeatedly until the run
switch is turned to the ”STOP” position.
The 086B Model 700P operating sequence is differ-
ent from the other 086B Models in that it prints,
feeds, and breaks off the closure continuously while
the run switch is in the “RUN” position. The closer
will stop cycling when the run switch is in the “STOP”
position or the last closure is manually removed from
the track assembly. When a new strip of closures is
inserted into the track and the “RUN” switch is in the
run position, a press of the green button, located on
the side access cover, will begin the continous cycle
of the machine.
THE PRINTER COVER MUST ALWAYS BE IN THE
CLOSED POSITION WHEN OPERATING THE
CLOSER.
The power switch and light must be off to cut
off power to the two sensor switches. Utilizing
the power switch instead of the run switch may
result in the machine not stopping in the neutral
position as required for loading the closure
strip. Use the power switch when clearing the
machine of debris or preforming minor service
work.
1. Plug in the closer.
2. Press the power switch to ”ON”.
3. Slide the closure strip into the closure track until
the strip stops (refer to Part B, LOADING A
ROLL OF CLOSURES in this section).
4. Press the run switch to ”RUN”. A closure will
move into the closing position, if one is not
already there, and the ”READY” light goes on
indicating the closer is ready for use.
5. Close the bag and remove it from the closer
(refer to Part E, CLOSING BAGS in this
section).
6. The closer cycles, prints a closure (If a printer
Model) and positions a new closure into the
closing position, ready for the next bag. The
”READY” light will go off momentarily as the closure is loading.
7. If no closure is available to move into the
closing position, the machine will continously
cycle and the ”READY” light will flash on and off
repeatedly until the run switch is pressed to
”STOP”. Closures can now be loaded into the
machine.

SECTION II
Operation
P 2.2
B. LOADING A ROLL OF CLOSURES:
1. Cycle the closer until the closures stop
advancing. Avoid cycling the closer more than
necessary when there is no closure in the
closing position. This will avoid a buildup of ink
residue on the closure track.
2. Move the run switch to “STOP” so the
mechanism is properly positioned.
3. When closing with closures, insert the closure
hub into a new roll of closures. Be certain the
closures feed forward from the bottom of the
roll.
When closing with labels, insert the closure hub
so that the label of the closure is right side up
when the closure strip is in the closure track.
4. Install the hub and roll.
5. Open the printer cover and check to see if there
is any ink residue on the bottom of the closure
track within the printing area. Use a soft cloth
or tissue to wipe any ink off the closure track
so the ink will not smear on the underside of
the closure.
6. Remove the masking tape and feed the end of
the strip into the closure track until the first
closure has passed the check and is against
the stop. Close the printer cover.
7. With the Power switch in the ”ON” position,
press the run switch to “RUN”. The closer will
cycle once and move a closure into the closing
position. Remove the first three unprinted
closures by hand. The closer is now ready to
close bags.
C. PREPARING THE PRINTER:
Figure 2.2 & 2.3
(If the machine is a non printer Model, skip to
Part E, CLOSING BAGS)
1. Open the printer cover.
2. Select the print image.
a. For the band printer, rotate the top of the print-
head toward the front of the closer so the
selected type characters can be easily viewed
through the window on the top of the print head.
Slide the selector knob out to select the desired
band and rotate the knob to select the desired
character. When finished, rotate the bandhead
back against the spacer.
b. For the typeholder block, remove the knurled
knob and slide the printer block off the shaft and
spring pin. Place the selected type in the
grooves that are the farthest away from the
holes in the mounting block. For normal viewing
on the closure the bottom edge of the characters
should be toward the middle of the block. Center the type from side to side. Replace the block
on the shaft and pin so the type is close to the
ink roll arm. If the type or typeholder block is not
installed correctly, the type will not be inked
properly.
3. Unscrew the knob (Ink roll) and position the ink
roll between the knob and the cam follower.
4. Mate the ink roll to the end of the cam follower
and screw in the knob to secure it. Under most
conditions the ink roll can be left on the printer
until the ink is used up. The ink roll will not dry
out.
5. Close the printer cover.
6. Cycle the printer and discard the unprinted
closures.

P 2.3
D. ADJUSTING THE PRINT FORCE:
Figure 2.2 & 2.3
DO NOT USE EXCESSIVE PRINT FORCE TO
COMPENSATE FOR PRINTING IMPERFECTIONS.
The operator can adjust the print force.
Always operate the printer with the minimum print
force that will produce acceptable printing. A quarter
turn of the knob is a large adjustment. If a
significant change in print quality is not noticed,
return to the previous setting and refer to Section III,
Adjustments and Section IV, Trouble Shooting to
correct any problems.
When the ink roll will no longer adequately ink the
type, replace it. Do not attempt to extend the life of
the ink roll by increasing the printing force.
To increase the print force, turn the knob counter-
clockwise. If the effort to turn the knob suddenly decreases, the maximum print force has been reached.
To decrease the print force, turn the knob clock wise.
E. CLOSING BAGS:
Figure 2.4
1. Grasp the bag as shown. Spin the bag to twist
the bag neck. Twisting the bag helps the
material to enter the closure smoothly.
2. The lower hand should form a “V” to trap all of
the bag material. This helps to completely
insert the bag material into the closure opening.
3. Do not jam the bag material straight into the
closure opening. The top hand should lead the
bottom hand. Follow up with the lower hand
until all of the bag neck is in the closure. A tight
package is accomplished by holding the
contents of the bag snugly up against the
underside of the closure track.
4. Remove the closed bag with a horizontal
motion.

F. SETUP:
Figure 2.5 - 2.7
Refer to the Specifications section for additional details on model setup.
The Model 100 is set up to run Series RJ closures.
The standard configuration for Models 200 and 200P
is to utilize closures with optional conversion kits.
They are also capable of using L closure - labels, U
closure - labels, or CR closure - labels. The conversions are simple to execute and can easily be done
by the user. The closer can be converted back to
the standard configuration.
The only tool needed for the conversion is a 3mm
hex wrench, which is included with the closer. A tool
holder on the back of the closer frame next to the
power cord connection provides a convenient place
to keep the wrench. The closer comes with two removable shims. One or two of the shims may need
to be removed for a specific configuration. There
are two studs located inside the closer stand to hang
the shims when not in use.

D. CHECK POSITION:
Figure 3.3
The check stops the closure strip from moving
backward while the pick retracts.
Refer to Figure 3.3 to further understand the check
mounting position. For this adjustment the closure
track must be removed from the closer.
For models 200, 600, and 700 the check is mounted
in the back mounting holes (farthest from the front of
the closure track). For Model 100, the check is
mounted in the front mounting holes.
1. With the check mounted in the correct holes,
and the mounting screws loose, slide the check
forward toward the front of the closure track to
the end of the mounting slots and tighten the
mounting screws.
E. CLOSURE STOP POSITION:
Figure 3.3 and 3.4
The end closure is separated from the closure strip
while the closure stop limits the travel of the second
closure in the strip as the pick continues to advance
the first closure. As with the position of the check,
the stop mount is located in a specific way
depending on the closer model being adjusted.
1. The stop mount is mounted as shown.
2. Be sure the beveled edges of the mount are
facing the closure stop.
The closure stop tip must be centered in the slot
located in the bottom track for it.
3. Slightly loosen the stop mount mounting screws.
4. Move the closure stop tip side to side until it is
centered in the slot.
5. Tighten the mounting screws.
6. Turn the closure track assembly over so it is

F. CLOSURE STOP SET SCREW ADJUSTMENT:
Figure 3.5 and 3.6
When properly adjusted, the closure stop set screw
sets the height of the closure stop. As the closure
strip advances, the second closure in the strip is
stopped. The leading closure continues to move
forward and is then separated from the closure strip.
1. Remove any closures from the track assembly.
2. Locate the top of the set screw.
3. Turn the sets crew in or out to lower or raise the
tip of the closure stop until it is 1/8” (3mm) below
the top of the top track. If the tip of the
stop will not raise as the set screw is turned out,
the stop may be bowed. If so, the stop must be
removed from the machine and the part
straightened. It is recommended that remove-
able threadlocker be used on the set screw.
G. LOK SENSOR SPRING:
Figure 3.7
The lok sensor spring is designed to apply force
to the lok sensor tip keeping it against the side of
the closure, as well as upward against the underside
of the closure track. For the spring to operate
correctly, it must be mounted as shown in Figure
3.7.
H. SENSOR LEVER STOP ADJUSTMENT:
Figure 3.7 - 3.9
The lok sensor stop is a bushing which limits the
travel of the sensor lever when no closures are
present. The bushing is secured under an M5
socket head screw. The bushing (sensor lever
stop) can be adjusted to set the lok sensor stop
position. When no closures are present, the lok
sensor tip should be centered below the inspection
hole in the top track (Figure 3.8).
1. Loosen the mounting screw and move the
bushing as needed.
2. Retighten the mounting screw.

I. LOK SENSOR SWITCH ADJUSTMENT:
Figure 3.9
The sensor switch detects whether or not there is a
closure in closing position. When a closure moves
into the closing position, the sensor switch stops the
motor at the end of the cycle. When the closure is
removed, the switch starts the motor.
1. Check to see if the sensor lever stop is adjusted
correctly, refer to Part H, this section.
2. Turn the closure track upside down.
3. Feed a short strip of closures (4 or 5) through
the track until the leading edge of the first
closure just slides past the lok sensor then
back out until the closure is free of the lok sen-
sor. Continue to slide the strip back and forth
while listening for an audible “click” indicating
that the lok sensor switch is turning on and off.
If the strip of closures moves forward so far that
it can’t back up, push it out of the front of the
track and start over. Adjust if needed as follows.
4. Slightly loosen the two mounting screws in the
sensor block (Figure 3.9).

J. MOTOR REMOVAL:
Figure 3.10
If the three motor mounting plate screws are
disturbed, the pick position must be checked. Refer
to Part K, this section.
The motor, motor mounting plate, cam assembly,
cam switch block, printer cam arm and limit switch
can be removed and reinstalled as an assembly.
Component adjustment to this assembly can be
made while the assembly is out of the frame of the
closer. Remove the motor assembly as follows:
1. Disconnect power to the closer.
2. If the optional printer is being used, then
disconnect the 0S-006 spring from the ink roll
arm and proceed.
3. Remove the pivot mount from the printer link.
4. Remove the four mounting screws that fasten
the top plate to the closer main frame. Lift the
top plate and printer mechanism from the
mainframe.
5. Remove the access cover.
6. Disconnect the pick spring from the pick.
7. Remove the electrical enclosure cover.
8. Carefully remove the fan from the motor shaft.
Note the clamp on the inside of the fan. When
the fan is reinstalled be sure to press the fan
onto the motor shaft clamp side first. The end
of the motor shaft should extend 1/16” to 1/8”
(1.6mm-3.2mm) beyond the hub of the fan.
9. Disconnect the motor wires.
10. Disconnect the cam switch electrical leads.
11. Remove the three motor mounting screws from
the slotted holes in the motor mounting plate.
Refer to Part K, this section for readjustment of
the pick.
12. Remove the motor assembly through the top of
the closer frame.
13. To reinstall the motor assembly, reverse these
steps.
K. PICK / CLOSURE LOCATION:
Figure 3.8
The pick advances the closure strip and locates the
leading closure in the bag closing position. Verify
whether the pick stops in the correct position, check
and adjust as follows:
1. Remove any closures from the closure track.
2. Verify that the pick is at the end of its travel. To
do this, plug in the closer. Turn the rocker
switch to “RUN” and then to “STOP”. The
motor will stop with the cam and pick in their
proper ”parked” positions.
3. With the motor stopped, disconnect the power
cord.
4. The tip of the pick should be visible in half of
the inspection hole as shown (Figure 3.8).
Reposition the pick if needed as follows:
BE SURE THE POWER IS DISCONNECTED.
5. Remove the side access cover.
6. Loosen the three motor mounting screws
mounted in the slots at the corners of the motor
mounting plate.
7. Slide the motor assembly until the pick is in the
proper position when viewed through the
inspection hole (Figure 3.8).
8. Tighten the motor mounting screws and again
check the pick position. Reattach the access
cover.

L. CAM ASSEMBLY:
Figure 3.11 - 3.14
The cam assembly drives the pick through its cycle
and raises the closure stop at the proper time
to stop the closure strip so the leading closure
can be separated from the remaining strip. The
print cam operates the printer mechanism and is
only installed on a closer with a printer. The stop
cam and the print cam fasten to either side of the
cam hub. Additionally, the switch cam contacts the
cam switch which stops the motor and cam
assembly when the pick is in the parked or neutral
position. The cam assembly should remain on the
motor shaft with no need for adjustment. If,
however, the cam assembly is disassembled, the
following information is helpful to reassemble it.
There are three ways the cam assembly can be
assembled depending on the model and if a printer
is to be used.
The printer version of the cam and hub assembly is
shown in Figure 3.13. The standard position is identical to the printer version but without the print cam.
The Model 100 operates with the Series RJ closure
and is similar to the cam position described earlier
but with the stop cam reversed (flipped over on the
cam hub Figure 3.12).
The hub is designed with a shoulder on either side
at the center. One shoulder is larger than the other.
If no printer is being used, proceed to step 4.
1. Turn the hub so the small shoulder is face up.
This is the print cam side. Set the print cam
onto the hub with the countersunk hole in the
printer cam facing up. Turn the cam on the hub
until one countersunk hole in the print cam
aligns with the M4 Threaded hole of the cam
hub.
2. Fasten the print cam to the hub with one M4X12
flathead and one M6X12 button head screw.
3. Turn the hub over so the print cam is down.
