READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE OPERATING THIS SIGNODE PRODUCT
SIGNODE ! 3620 WEST LAKE AVENUE ! GLENVIEW, ILLINOIS 60025
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAN
RESULT IN SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY.
GENERAL SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
1. STRAP BREAKAGE HAZARD.
Improper operation of the tool or sharp corners on the load can result in strap breakage during
tensioning, which could result in the following:
!
A sudden loss of balance causing you to fall.
!
Both tool and strap flying violently towards your face.
Failure to place the strap properly around the load or an unstable or shifted load could result in
a sudden loss of strap tension during tensioning. This could result in a sudden loss of
balance causing you to fall.
!
If the load corners are sharp use edge protectors.
!
Positioning yourself in-line with the strap, during tensioning and sealing, can result in
severe personal injury from flying strap or tool. When tensioning or sealing, position
yourself to one side of the strap and keep all bystanders away.
2. TRAINING.
This tool must not be used by persons not properly trained in its use. Be certain that you
receive proper training from your employer. If you have any questions contact your Signode
Representative.
3. EYE INJURY HAZARD.
Failure to wear safety glasses with side shields can result in severe eye injury
or blindness. Always wear safety glasses with side shields which conform to
ANSI Standard Z87.1 or EN 166.
4. FALL HAZARD.
Maintaining improper footing and/or balance when operating the tool can cause you to fall. Do
not use the tool when you are in an awkward position.
5. CUT HAZARD.
Handling strap or sharp parts could result in cut hands or fingers. Wear
protective gloves.
6. TOOL CARE.
!
Inspect and clean the tool daily. Replace all worn or broken parts.
!
Lubricate all moving parts daily.
!
On air powered tools, always disconnect the pneumatic connection to the tool when
performing part removal and replacement procedures. NEVER connect a pneumatic source
to a disassembled tool unless otherwise specified.
7. WORK AREA.
Keep work areas uncluttered and well lighted.

Use the correct Signode products for your application. If you need help contact your
Signode Representative.
Signode tools and machines are designed and warranted to work together with Signode
strapping and seals. Use of non-Signode strap, seals and/or manufactured or specified
replacement parts may result in strap breakage or joint separation while applying strapping
to a load or during normal shipping and handling. This could result in severe personal injury.
JOINT FORMATION
1. Before using this tool, read its Operation and Safety Instructions
contained in this manual.
2. The RCN-3435 and the RCN-1435 are double reverse notch
sealers. The N-1435, N-1444-50LSH and N-1457LSH are double
crimp sealers and the NS-1457-75L and the NS-250-65L are single
crimp sealers, although the single crimp sealers are usually
required to place two crimps per seal. If an NS-250-65L tool is
being used to crimp a 203 seal, then three crimps per seal are
required. Refer to the specifications at the back of this manual
for details. Properly notched or crimped seals will appear as
shown in the illustration. If the joint does not appear as shown,
then the operator must proceed as follows:
A. Ensure that the tool's operating instructions are being
followed before applying another strap.
B. Cut the strap off and apply another.
3. An improperly formed seal which does not have good notches or
crimps, could result in strap separation. Before moving any
package be certain that the seal is formed as shown. Inspect the
joint to make certain it appears as shown in the illustration. If
not, remove the strap and check the tool for worn or broken
parts. Repair the tool before applying another strap.
MOVING AND STACKING STRAPPED LOADS
Before moving or stacking any strapped load, follow all standard industry practices regarding safe
material handling procedures.
CUTTING TENSIONED STRAP
Using claw hammers, crowbars, chisels, axes or similar tools will cause tensioned strap to fly
apart with hazardous force. Use only cutters designed for cutting strap. Read the instructions in
the cutters manual for proper procedure in cutting strap. Before using any Signode product read
its Operation and Safety Manual.
TOOL CLEANING & LUBRICATION
Clean and apply a light weight machine oil to all moving parts on a weekly basis. Refer to the
Pneumatic Information shown in this manual for lubricant recommendations with regard to tool
operation.

TOOL INSTALLATION
To work effectively, these sealers must be properly installed. This installation includes, in some
cases, proper suspension of the tool over the container to be strapped and the proper placement
of the strapping dispenser to provide a continuous easy supply of strapping for the application.
The sealers may be suspended for sealing on top of a package by means of an optional eye bolt
(35A) located on top of the tool. If desired, the sealers can be suspended for sealing on the side of
a package by attaching a bracket (Part No. 010749) which can be obtained on request.

PNEUMATIC INFORMATION
Air Supply Installation
If the compressor has a good dryer unit, use black pickled pipe. When a dryer unit is not installed,
use galvanized or copper pipe.
To preform reliably, a pneumatic tool requires a continuous source of clean, water-free air at
adequate pressure.
Never operate this tool using a bottled air or gas source.
Bottled air/gas sources do not provide consistent operating pressure and
could result in air pressures that exceed the maximum allowed for the tool.
A filter-regulated-lubricator unit (Signode Part No. 008559) must be installed as close to the air tool
as possible, preferably within 10 feet. It should be placed in a convenient location where it can
easily be drained, adjusted, and filled with oil. The air hose must have at least a 3/8" I.D.. A quickconnect press-on socket is installed on the stress spring end of the hose for convenient hookup to
the air tool.
Filter and lubricator bowls are made of polycarbonate material. Do not install where bowls may be
exposed to materials incompatible with poly carbonate. Certain oils, solvents, and chemicals or
their fumes can weaken these bowls and possibly cause them to burst. Clean only with warm
water. A cut-off valve placed ahead of the filter will be useful when cleaning the filter or
replenishing the lubricator.
