MIP-1620 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Pull strapping from cart and bring around load. Push seal
on with flat side of seal facing outside of strap. (Figure 1)

2. Slide end of strap through bottom of seal and fold over the
end to form a “hook.” (Figure 2)

3. Squeeze the tension handle of the MIP-1620 down to the
base and put top strap through pusher tool with the seal
against the nose of the tool. Release the tension handle to
clamp back down on the strap. (Figure 3) Be sure the
strap is flush with the inside edge of the MIP-1620.

4. Tighten strap by moving the tension handle back and forth.

5. Seal the pusher seal with an appropriate heavy-duty sealer,
according to sealer manufacturer’s instructions.

6. With seal secured, tilt the whole tool forward over the seal
and back again approximately three times to bend and
break the banding. Squeeze the tension handle of the MIP­1620 down to the base to release from the end of the strap.

SAFETY WARNINGS:

• Before operating the tool, review the enclosed
MIP, Inc. General Hand Tools and Strapping Safety
booklet. Only trained personnel should operate MIP, Inc.
hand tools.

• Only use equipment recommended for the strap. The MIP­1620 is recommended only for 5/8” x .023 through 1-1/4”
x .044 gauge steel.

• Dangerous breakage may occur due to excessive
tensioning, possibly resulting in severe injury or death.
Tension strap in moderation.

• Keep fingers away from areas that can pinch or cut. These
areas are primarily located at the front of the tool.

• Review the instructions and safety material on a regular
basis.

• Warning: Unsafe use may result in blindness, severe
laceration, amputation, or death.
