Installation and Set-Up

Receiving And Handling

After the machine has been uncrated, examine the case sealer for damage that might have occurred during transit. If damage is evident, file a damage claim immediately with the transportation company and also notify your 3M Representative.

Machine Set-Up

Important – Read "Warnings", on page 19, before attempting to set-up the case sealer for operation.

The following instructions are presented in the order recommended for setting up and installing the case sealer, as well as for learning the operating functions and adjustments. Following them step by step will result in your thorough understanding of the machine and an installation in your production line that best utilizes the many features built into the case sealer. Refer to Figure 3-1, page 15, to identify the various components of the case sealer.

Note – A tool kit consisting of metric open end and hex socket wrenches is provided with the machine. These tools should be adequate to set-up the machine, however, other tools supplied by the customer will be required for machine maintenance.

PACKAGING AND SEPARATE PARTS

1.Lift off fiberboard cover from pallet after removing staples and straps at bottom.

2.Remove protective wrapping around machine.

3.Install the upper tape drum bracket on the top crossbar as shown in Figure 2-1A.

4.The column guards, shown in Figure 2-1 have been installed upside down for shipping. They must be repositioned for safe operation of the machine. Remove and retain the screws and

washers holding the guards on the columns. Rotate the guards 180° and install back on the columns as shown. Replace existing screws and washers to secure the guards in place.

5.Cut cable ties securing upper assembly to machine bed on each side.

6. Pneumatic connection.

WARNING – Use care when working with compressed air.

The case sealer requires a 5 bar gauge pressure 110 litre/min [70 PSIG], @21°C, 1.01 bar [3.75 SCFM] compressed air supply. As shown in Figure 3-1, an on/off valve, pressure regulator, and filter are provided to service the air supply.

Note A precision regulator is used to balance the top drive assembly. Due to the self relieving feature of this regulator a small amount of air will continually vent to the atmosphere. This is normal and amounts to approximately 3 litre/min. [0.1 SCFM].

a.Read and remove safety tag from pneumatic "On/Off" valve.

b.Connect the main air supply line to the inlet side of the on/off valve using the barbed fitting and hose clamp provided. See Figure 2-1B. The customer supplied air hose

(8 mm [5/16 inch] ID) must be clamped tightly to the barbed fitting.

If another type of connector is desired, the barbed fitting can be removed and replaced with the desired 1/4-18 NPT threaded connector.

Always turn the air valve "Off" when the air supply line is being connected or disconnected.

7.Turn the air supply on be turning the air on/off valve to SUP (On).

Note The air valve has provisions for lock out/tag out according to plant regulations.

8.Raise and latch upper drive assembly in full "Up" position.

CAUTION – Read "Operation – Mechanical Latch", page 18, before

raising and latching upper drive assembly.
