INTRODUCTION AND DESCRIPTION
The OLIVER Model 1308 Lidder has been designed and manufactured to provide a
machine of very high quality, yet with a cost effective approach to producing film
lidded trays. The machine can be operated wherever a 115. V.A.C. outlet is
available and requires only a small amount of table space. The machine is manually
operated which eliminates downtime associated with more complex pieces of
equipment. Frequent starts and stops or interrupted flow of product to the machine
have no impact on the operation of the machine.
The machine basically consists of a film feed system, a heated platen, a tray holder
and a film cutter unit. These are all packaged together in a rugged cast frame to
give the operator an ergonomic workstation with the utmost simplicity of operation.

SET UP
1. Unpack and carefully remove the Model 1308 Lidder. Check for
completeness of your order and that none of the items have been
damaged during shipment.
2. Place the Model 1308 Lidder in a suitable location that provides adequate
working space. The location must be sturdy, level, and capable of holding
60 lbs. per machine.
3. Remove all packaging materials and shipping restraints such as plastic
ties and tape.
4. Raise the handle to the uppermost position.
5. Plug the power cord into a 115-volt outlet and avoid the use of extension

OPERATING PROCEDURE
1. To turn the machine on plug in the power cord. Wait 20 to 30 minutes to
allow the heated platen to reach temperature.
2. Load a roll of film onto the film support stand as shown on the “FILM FEED”
diagram located on the side of the machine. Make certain that the film is positioned
between the film side guides and that the side guides are properly located to center
the film roll in the machine. The side guides can be adjusted by sliding them on the
tube.
NOTE
• The adhesive side of the film can be determined by pinching a fold and
rubbing the lid material against itself. Test both sides of the lid. The rough or tacky
side of the lid will be the adhesive side. The film supplied by Oliver Products
Company is wound with the adhesive side toward the inside of the roll. If the film is
loaded in accordance with the “FILM FEED” diagram it will be positioned properly for
applying the adhesive side of the film to the flange of the tray. If the film is loaded
improperly it can cause the adhesive side to come in contact with the surface of the
heated platen and the film will stick to the heated platen. If this happens, it can
result in the need for cleaning the platen.

3. Place a tray in the tray holder. Take care to avoid spilling food product on
the flange of the tray. Contamination of the flange can result in poor heat seals.
4. Pull the film forward until the film overhangs the tray flange by approximately
¼”. Be sure the adhesive side of the film is down (see NOTE above).
5. Pull the operating handle of machine down until it will not move any further
and then immediately return it to the up position. Holding the handle down longer
will result in stronger seals. The amount of time you hold the handle in the down
position is the “seal time”. If the seals become too strong, they can be difficult to
open or it may result in shredding or tearing of the film when the lid is pulled off of
the tray. You should periodically check for proper seals to make sure that
everything is functioning properly.
6. To remove the lidded tray reach under and push it up with one hand so you
can grasp it from the top with the other hand and lift it out of the tray holder.
7. At the end of the day, unplug the machine from the wall outlet. This is the
only way to turn the machine off.
NOTE
• IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO LEAVE THE MACHINE PLUGGED IN WHEN
IT IS GOING TO BE OUT OF OPERATION FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF
TIME.
