3 E-Stop Switch
The E-Stop switch kills electrical power and
exhaust air pressure from the drive belt
assemblies. The upper head assembly will
raise to its upper most position. To restart
machine, rotate E-stop switch (releases switch
latch) and then restart machine by pressing
electrical switch "I" (On) button on side guard
of machine.
4Door
The door is equipped with a safety interlock
which kills electrical power and exhaust air
pressure from the drive belt assemblies. The
upper head assembly will raise to its upper
most position when the door is opened.
5 Raising Switch, Upper Taping Head Frame
This switch, when touched by the leading
edge of a box, pneumatically raises the upper
frame to allow insertion of a box under the
upper frame, as the box moves under the
switch, releasing it, the upper frame descends
on the box and the drive belts convey the box
through the machine. When switch is
actuated by hand, the upper frame rises to its
maximum height. Released, the upper frame
descends to its rest position.
WARNING – The E-Stop switch or
door must not be used for raising
the upper head assembly for maintenance
work. If these are used the upper head
assembly could lower during maintenance
work causing injury to personnel.
6 Centering Switch, Box Drive Belts
This pneumatic switch controls the closing
(centering) of the drive belts. When switch is
activated by a box passing under it, the drive
belts close and center the box.
7Air Pressure Regulator, Box Drive Belt
Centering – Figure 3-4.
This regulator is used to adjust drive belt
centering pressure. The factory set point is 5
turns clockwise. If more pressure is needed to
center box, turn knob clockwise to desired
pressure. If box is being crushed, turn knob
counterclockwise to relieve pressure.
Regulator is locked by tightening screw.
8Air Pressure Gauge, Upper Taping Head
Frame
This gauge, used in conjunction with the upper
frame air regulator, provides operator with a
reference pressure setting for various size/
weight boxes.
