INSTALLATION DESCRIPTION
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
CAUTION! Follow local electrical and safety
codes as well as the National Electrical Code
(NEC) and the Occupational Health and Safety
Act (OSHA).
The machine is rated at 110 to 125 volts AC, 50/60
Hz with a ground. At this voltage the unit draws
about 5 amperes. The use of extension cords is not
recommended.
Locate the unit at or near an appropriate electrical
supply. Be certain that the power source conforms to
the machine’s requirements and that the proper gauge
and type of wire is used. Make connections using the
shortest possible runs of wire. Long runs of wire can result
in reduced voltage.
CAUTION! ALWAYS check the specifications
listed on the back of the machine. It shows the
correct operating voltage and amp draw for
this machine.
GROUNDING
For your SAFETY and machine protection, DO NOT
operate without a proper and secure electrical ground.
If a grounded receptacle is not available, use a proper
grounding adapter.
NOTE: All warranties are VOID if the machine
is used with an ungrounded electrical
connection. Never connect a machine to any
power source that exceeds the specified rating.
LOCATION
CAUTION! DO NOT operate this machine in
explosive atmospheres. Do not subject the
machine to wet or corrosive environments.
Keep all flammable and caustic substances
away from the machine at all times.
This self-contained bag-packaging machine dispenses,
opens and seals pre-made, pre-opened bags from
a roll. The chassis is 300 series stainless steel and
is designed as a tabletop unit to be used in the
vertical position. The machine works with pre-made,
pre-opened bags on a roll up to a maximum 12” (30.5
cm) wide and up to 12” (30.5 cm) long. Running longer
than maximum bags may require factory modifications.
Heavy products may also require factory modifications.
NOTE: Continuous pre-made bags-on-a-roll
that are not pre-opened will not work on this
machine.
The Bag On A Roll Machine is extremely safe and easy
to use even by inexperienced operators. There is no
guesswork, and the machine is designed for the SAFETY
of both your operator and your products. If the sealing
jaws encounter anything significantly thicker than the
bag to be sealed, no heat or pressure is applied –
protects operator’s hands and fingers.
The electromagnetic jaw pressure system exerts pressure
only after the sealing jaws close. The adjustable sealing
system provides heating and cooling time to make
consistently strong heat seals. Once the heat-sealing
cycle is complete, the sealing jaws reopen.
HOW THE MACHINE WORKS
1. Install the pre-made, pre-opened bags on a roll in
the machine.
2. Close the pinch rollers.
3. Set the bag length control for the proper time
duration.
4. Set the sealer control for the material to be sealed.
5. Dispense the first bag to the filling position and air
stream blows it open.
Unit is for indoor use only. Select a location close
to where the products being packaged are stored
or manufactured for best workflow. Also consider
whether the operator will sit or stand while using this
machine. Place the unit on a level, sturdy table that can
support the weight of the machine, the products to be
packaged and those already packaged.

6. Place the product(s) into the open bag.
7. Tear off the filled bag at the perforations.
8. Hold the bag flat and place the open mouth of the
bag between the open sealing jaws near the base
of the machine.
9. Depress the electric foot switch.
CAUTION! DO NOT use the electric foot switch
when liquids are on the floor. A dangerous
electric shock might result.
10. The sealing jaws automatically close on the
mouth of the filled bag.
