1.2 General Safety Guidelines
Providing a safe working environment for operating your machine is the responsibility of the user. The
suggested precautions, material safety data and other suggestions that follow do not have preference over
the user’s own plant practices, regulations or safety committee recommendations.
Personal injury and equipment damage can be avoided by the continued adherence to the safety features
provided with this machine and in keeping with the necessary governmental requirements. The guarding
and interlocking safety switches have been installed on the machine for the operator’s safety. These items
should be maintained in good working order by the user.
It is assumed that the user’s safety department has established a safety program that is in keeping with a
complete analysis of industrial hazards. Before installing and operating or performing maintenance and
clean--up procedures on the machine, it is suggested that the safety program be reviewed to ensure that it
covers the possible hazards that might occur with the operation of this machine.
Due consideration must be given to those hazards which arise from the presence of electrical power, high
temperature, and cleaning materials used in the operational areas of the machine. Proper installation and
care of protective devices and over--pressure protective equipment should be considered an essential part of
any safety program.
Special lock--out features are to prevent the possibility of applying power to the equipment at any time when
maintenance work is in progress.
In general, personnel should be guided by all basic rules of safety associated with the equipment and the
process. It should be further understood that information contained in this manual does not relieve operating
and maintenance personnel of the responsibility of exercising normal good judgment in operating and care of
the machine and its attendant equipment.

All procedures in this section provide advance planning and site preparation data for installation of the Scott
Edge Reinforcer. Environmental requirements, unpacking instructions, electrical and physical specifications
are included. This information should be used as a reference during the development of site preparation
plans before you install your machine.
If any questions arise while performing any of the following procedures, contact:
Note ! A forklift is required to lift the machine off the shipping skid and place it on the floor.

2.2 Pre-Installation Requirements
The environmental requirements of the Scott Edge Reinforcer must be considered well in advance of the
actual installation. Providing a well suited operating environment will help ensure a trouble free installation
process. Consideration should be given to the following items:
● Power, location and rating of power connections.
● Floor strength
● Level floor
● Adequate space must be provided around all four sides of the machine to permit normal operation and
maintenance procedures. The figure shows the minimum space required.

190
_
- 200_F
Keep the temperature as low as
possible to prevent tape stretch and
the removal of water from the paper.

CAUTION: When stringing the Heat Seal Tape,
care must be taken to twist the tape in the
correct manner so that the adhesive is facing
away from the strip - applying roller and that the
raw polyester is against it.
The polyester tape is on 3” cores.
Step: 1. Place the reel of tape on the reel holder.
Step: 2. You may use a small piece of
self--adhesive tape to fasten the end of
the polyester tape to the applying roller.
