

Never touch the heating elements with bare hand while the sealer is plugged into a power source,
in operation or just finished operation. Touching heated areas may cause fire and/or severe burns.

 The blade found on the I-Bar Sealer w/ Cutter is very sharp. Use extreme

caution when handling or changing the blade.

 While machine is in operation, do not place fingers, tools, or other foreign objects on or into the

machine. Do not place hands or fingers near pinch points. Do not touch machine while it is in
operation. Perform all procedures carefully and watch where hands and fingers are at all times.

 The sealer is not water resistant or water proof. Spraying down the machine will damage machine

or cause electrical shock. Do not submerge the sealer into water or liquid.

 Do not operate sealer in a corrosive or humid environment.

 Always keep the machine clean, lubricated and in good working condition. Follow any

maintenance and lubrication procedures outlined in this manual. Make sure unit is disconnected
from power source before cleaning.

 NEVER use any accessories or parts from other manufacturers. Machine should not be altered or

modified using parts that are not genuine authorized parts. Doing so will VOID YOUR
WARRANTY.



When replacing the heating elements, always replace the PTFE adhesive under the
heating element. A worn PTFE adhesive can cause the heating element to break.

The
PTFE adhesive works as a barrier between the body of the sealer and the element. Never allow
the element to come in direct contact with the sealer body as that will damage the timer.

 Never leave the sealer unattended. Be safe, disconnect the sealer from power source before

leaving work area.

 Always keep out of reach of children and pets.

 Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is near persons with reduced physical, sensory

or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge . This sealer is NOT to be used by
children or by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience
and knowledge.

 Do NOT use the sealer outdoors.

 Do NOT use the sealer while under the influence of drugs, medications or alcohol.
