Box Jams

If a box is improperly fabricated or filled, if the machine is mis-adjusted for the box being run, or if boxes enter the machine incorrectly, a box jam may occur. To clear a box jam, follow these steps:

1.Determine cause of box jam so corrective action can be taken to prevent reoccurrence.

2.Turn off machine.

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

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

Never attempt to work on any part of the machine, load tape, or remove jammed boxes from the machine while the machine is running

3.Crank upper head up and/or drive belts out until box is free.

4.Carefully pull box out of machine.

WARNING

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

To reduce the risk associated with muscle strain:

Use proper body mechanics when removing or clearing jammed boxes from the machine

5.Readjust upper head and drive belts according to "Machine Adjustment for Box Size" instructions.

6.Connect air and electrical supplies.

7.Turn machine "On" only when it is safe to do so!
