Your new FLEX stretchwrapper was designed to get up and running quickly upon

Unpacking
Remove skidding/ packaging materials.
Please inspect the machine for any fasteners that may have loosened in
shipping. Although this is highly unlikely, long delivery distances may have an
effect on fastener torque.
Inspect for any obvious shipping damage and report to your machine provider.

Positioning
Move the machine by the integrated forklift tubes only.
Picking up the machine at any other location can damage the equipment.
Don’t slide the equipment, lift and place only.
Place the machine on level surfaces only. Un-level surfaces can cause excessive
vibration. Shim if needed.
Move the wrapper into its final position. If the turntable machine must be secured
to the floor, we recommend that the wrapper base section be bolted to the floor
by the 1/2" concrete floor anchors (leg & shield or expandable type-Red Heads).
For rigging the RT tower machines, see your user manual.
Connect Power
Make sure the MAIN POWER switch on the wrapper’s panel is set to the OFF
position.
Orion Packaging insists that a dedicated circuit is used for this wrapper.
Extension cords are not allowed and can void your warranty.
Plug the machine into the 115 VAC/ 60 Hz/ 1 Phase / 15 Amp outlet.
