TAPE AND HEATING ELEMENT REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION! Unplug sealer from socket before
proceeding.
1. Remove screws along with the cover plates (A)
and top teflon cover (B). Remove element (C) from
terminal posts. (See Figure 1)
2. If bottom adhesive teflon tape (D) is worn, burned or
ripped, it needs to be changed. Teflon tape keeps
the element insulated from the sealer housing to
ensure proper sealer operation. (See Figure 1)
If this tape is not worn, go to step 5.
3. After removal of metal cover plates, teflon tapes
and element, clean sealing surface (E) with cleaner
until free of glue and debris. Adhesive remover is
recommended. (See Figure 2)

D
4. Peel off backing of adhesive teflon tape. Apply
evenly onto sealer. Excess tape should extend all
the way to the terminal posts (F). If the element
touches any metal, the sealer will short out.
(See Figure 2)
5. Attach new heating element.
6. Reassemble in reverse of step 1. Teflon cover must
be flush against the sealer before replacing cover
plates.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
• Always keep the sealing platform clean.
• Do not use water to clean the sealing platform.
• A short circuit will occur if the bottom teflon cloth
strip wears out. Each time you replace the heating
element or the top teflon cover, check the bottom
teflon tape for wear and damage.
• Only use ULINE replacement parts.
• A worn rubber pressure pad (under the handle) will
influence the quality of the seats. The rubber pad
should be periodically checked for uneven wear.
CAUTION! To provide continued protection
against risk of electric shock, connect to
properly grounded outlets only.
• If the bag seal is damaged or broken, it is because
the heating time is too long. Reset the timer knob to a
lower number.
• If the plastic bag sticks to the sealing arm, it was
because there was not enough cooling time. Keep
the arm down for a longer period of time after the
light turns off.
• It is okay to leave the unit plugged in. The unit is off
unless the sealing arm is down.
