Operation (Continued)

WARNINGS

1.Turn electrical and air supply off and disconnect before servicing taping heads or performing any adjustments or maintenance on the machine. Turn electrical and air supplies off when machine is not in use.

2.Do not leave machine running unattended.

3.Before turning drive belts on, be sure no tools or other objects are on the machine bed.

4.Keep hands and loose clothing away from moving belts and flap kicker.

5.Keep away from flap kicker. Flap kicker is controlled by air and can be activated (if air supply is "On") by depressing flap kicker cam. Be sure flap kicker is in the down position before servicing.

6.Never attempt to remove jammed boxes from the machine while machine is running.

7.Machine access door must be closed when drive belts are running. Do not attempt to override door interlock switch.

8.Keep hands and clothing away from taping heads when machine is running. A box traveling through the machine causes taping head rollers to retract when box enters and extend as box leaves taping head.

9.Both the upper and lower taping heads utilize extremely sharp tape cut-off knives. The knife is located under the orange knife guard which has the "WARNING – SHARP KNIFE" label. Before loading tape, refer to Figures 3-1 and 3-2 in Section II to identify the knife location. Keep hands out of these areas except as necessary to service the taping heads.
