TROUBLESHOOTING
If shrink film appears to be single sheet, place a strip of tape on top of the
film and on the bottom and pull apart to initially separate.
This can mean one of several things:
With PP or PO film, wire must be kept clean by removing sealing pad
and depressing arm until wire burns clean all film residue. No Teflon tape
required on arm.
PVC film will smoke when seal is made. Teflon tape over the heating
element will prevent the film from smoking and will occasionally need to
be replaced. For Teflon tape or other parts, call Uline at 1-800-295-5510.
If gun is set on high temperature and held in the same spot for more than
a few seconds, the film will burn. Gun should be continually moving in a
circular spiral motion from the outside edges of the package first, and to
the middle of the package last.
On/Off switch may not be turned on.
Timer on Industrial model may not be set properly.
Arm may not be in complete contact with pad. (Gentle Pressure).
Excessive pressure applied to sealing arm.
Wire may need cleaning.
Timer should be set to allow the minimal amount of time necessary to cut
and seal the film. The setting will vary according to type of film in use.
Setting timer too high will burn the film. PVC film will require a lower setting
than most other films. Timer may need to be adjusted to lower setting if
machine is used in a continuous or rapid manner.
