OVERVIEW
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
To insure safe operation, the operator should be familiar with the pinch points and a possible burn hazard near the seal jaw area. Warning stickers mark the location of these hazards.
Do not wear neckties, jewelry or loose clothing when operating the H-1075.
Do not operate, troubleshoot or maintain the H-1075 under the influence of any drug or alcohol.
Always observe all safety warnings and notices on the
machine and in this manual.
DO NOT use flammable or toxic cleaning fluids such as gasoline, benzene or ether.
CAUTION! Keep hands, fingers and flammable objects out of the seal jaw area. If a foreign object is caught between the jaws, turn main power switch to OFF immediately to prevent possible burns.
CONTROLS
MAIN POWER SWITCH – Turns power off and on.
FOOT SWITCH – seal cycle.
HEAT TIMER – Controls heating time. To increase heat, turn heat timer knob clockwise. To decrease, turn knob counterclockwise. Timer is set in seconds – 10 seconds maximum.
COOL TIMER – Controls amount of time that pressure bar remains closed for cooling. To increase cool time, turn cool timer knob clockwise. To decrease, turn knob counterclockwise. Timer is calibrated in increments of
1/10 minute.
LED INDICATORS ON HEAT/COOL TIMERS:
• UNLIT: Timer is not active.
• SOLID COLOR: Timer is active.
• FLASHING: Timer has timed-out.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT! Read this section prior to operation.
SETUP
1. Place the H-1075 on a flat working surface.
2. Locate the "Air In" port on rear.
3. Attach clean, dry air supply using 1/4" OD plastic tubing (supplied with sealer).
4. Verify air pressure.
CAUTION! DO NOT exceed 85 psi.
START-UP
WARNING! Keep fingers away from seal jaw.
1. Insert plug into 120VAC, 60Hz outlet.
2. Turn sealer ON by pressing main power switch.
3. Set Heat Timer at #2 position (2 seconds) and Cool Timer at #1 (6 seconds).
OPERATION
IMPORTANT! If you are vacuuming a granular or fine substance, the machine will need a filter. Failure to use a filter will clog the ejector and the machine will not be able to vacuum.
1. Load the product into the bag and place the bag opening over the nozzle (between the sealing jaws). Pull the bag so its seal area is straight and crease­free.
2. Press Foot Switch. Jaws will close and Heat Timer LED will illuminate.
3. Remove bag and inspect seal. If the seal is weak, increase Heat Timer slightly. Adjust Cool Timer to allow plastic to cool before pressure bar reopens.
7. At the end of each shift or production run, turn sealer OFF by pressing the Main Power Switch.
NOTE: Sealing cycle may be aborted at any time by turning Main Power Switch to "OF F."
HEATING TIPS
• Uline recommends cooling time should be double the heating time.
• To extend element life and avoid overheating, set Heat Timer at the lowest number for the required seal. Slight adjustments can significantly change results.
VACUUM TIPS
• For sealing heavy bags, heat time may need to be increased slightly.
• Practice the above process by setting the Heat Timer at zero and operating the machine in the vacuum mode only. This allows the operator to become familiar with the vacuum process without wasting bags.
• If available, attach the optional support tray. The tray aligns the product with the nozzle, leaving the operator’s hands free to work with the bag.
• The most desirable operator position is normally at waist level. Otherwise, bag may be misaligned with nozzle, affecting the evacuation flow.
• Move product as close to the nozzle as possible without interfering with front vacuum bar. The product’s thickness will prevent the bag from collapsing in front of the nozzle.
• If the product is thick or bulky, reposition slightly further from the vacuum jaw to prevent creases in the seal area.
• As the vacuum jaw closes, gently pull the bag back and up, away from the nozzle. Otherwise, the bag may collapse in front of the nozzle.
4. Hold Foot Switch until desired vacuum level is achieved. Sealing cycle will initiate when Foot Switch is released.
5. The sealing jaws will automatically release when heating and cooling cycles are completed. The machine will then return to its pre-set heating and cooling cycles.
6. Continuously monitor seal area. If the area overheats, lower heating time and increase cooling time.
