Maintenance (continued)

WARNING

•To reduce the risk associated with shear, pinch, and entanglement hazards:

−Turn air and electrical supplies off on associated equipment before performing any adjustments, maintenance, or servicing the taping heads

−Never attempt to work on the taping head or load tape while the box drive system is running

•To reduce the risk associated with sharp blade hazards:

−Keep hands and fingers away from tape cutoff blades under orange blade guards. The blades are extremely sharp

Cleaning

Regular slotted containers produce a great deal of dust and paper chips when conveyed through taping heads. If this dust is allowed to build-up on the heads, it can cause wear on the moving parts. Excessive dirt build-up should be wiped off with a damp cloth. Cleaning should be done once per month, depending on the number and type of boxes used. If the boxes used are dirty, or if the environment in which the heads operate is dusty, cleaning on a more frequent basis may be necessary.

Note – Never attempt to remove dirt from taping heads by blowing it out with compressed air. This can cause the dirt to be blown inside the components onto sliding surfaces. Dirt in these areas can cause serious equipment damage. Never wash down or subject taping heads to conditions causing moisture condensation on components. Serious equipment damage could result.

Applying/Buffing Roller Replacement

Replacing roller requires removal of shaft and mounting screws. With no area on the shaft to grip, the shaft often turns when attempting to remove the second screw.

To ease removal of second screw, a 5mm hex socket has been provided at the bottom of the threads in both ends of the shaft. Insert a 5mm hex key wrench into this socket after removing one screw to hold the shaft for removal of the second screw. See Figure 4-2.
