1Electrical "On/Off" Switch

The box drive belts are turned on and off (off button is red) with the electrical switch on the side of the machine guard at the infeed end.

WARNING

•To reduce the risk associated with mechanical and electrical hazards:

−Allow only properly trained and qualified personnel to operate and/or service this equipment

−Turn electrical and air supply off and disconnect before performing any adjustments, maintenance or servicing the machine or taping heads

Note – The case sealer has a circuit breaker located in the electrical enclosure on the lower right side of the machine frame. If circuit becomes overloaded and circuit breaker trips, unplug the machine electri- cal cord and determine cause of overload. After two minutes, remove the electrical control box cover and reset the circuit breaker by pressing the "Reset" button and then the "Start" button on the circuit breaker. Replace the control box cover, plug ma- chine electrical cord into outlet and restart machine by pressing green "On" button.

2Main Air "On/Off" Valve/Pressure Regulator/Filter – Figure 3-3

This set of pneumatic components controls, regulates and filters plant air supply to the two separate control circuits of the case sealer.

"On/Off" Valve – "On" turn to "SUP" – "Off" turn to "EXH".

Note – Turning air supply "Off" automatically bleeds air pressure from the case sealer air circuits.

WARNING

•To reduce the risk associated with mechanical and electrical hazards:

−Turn electrical and air supply off and disconnect before performing any adjustments, maintenance or servicing the machine or taping heads

Note – The air valve has provisions for lockout/tagout according to plant regulations.

Pressure Regulator regulates main air pressure to the machine to adjust pressure, pull knob up and turn – push down to lock setting.

Filter removes dirt and moisture from plant air before it enters the case sealer pneumatic circuits. If water collects in bottom of bowl, lift up on the valve on the bottom of bowl to drain.
