CAUTION: To avoid damage to the Touch Screen module, hold the Screen until it is in the
desired position and then be sure the screws and ball clamp lever are securely tightened.
Dancer Assembly: The dancer assembly, located on the stand at the rear of the T-1000, is
secured with tape strapping during shipment. After the removal of the strapping, the dancer
should be checked to make sure that it will rotate freely in a semicircular path. Ensure the brake
strap and brake tension spring remain affixed to the dancer assembly. The shaft assembly may
then be inserted into the dancer frame brackets so it is over the brake stop for tension. Once the
bag roll shaft is inserted, the brake strap will be in a position under the bag roll shaft with a slight
amount of tension on the dancer assembly. The dancer should be checked to insure that it rotates
freely.
Funnel Assembly & Adjustment: One standard funnel, any size, is provided with the
T-1000. Other sizes and configurations may be purchased separately. Mount the funnel
brackets to the funnel using thumb-knob screws through the three-slotted side of the brackets
(Fig. 2-3). The three slots are provided for height adjustment of the funnel.
With both the left and right bracket fastened to the funnel, position the funnel such that the small
end of the funnel lies approximately 1/2" above the center of the seal bar. Secure the brackets to
the upper face-plate slots with thumb-knob screws through the slotted brackets. Position and
hand-tighten the thumb-knob screws, sliding the funnel left or right centering the funnel over the
bag. Fine adjustments of the funnel may be achieved, including left to right, up and down, front
to back and tilt angles.
CAUTION: Seal bar should not come in contact with the funnel during sealing. Raise the
funnel to avoid contact.
Guard: Mount the Plexiglas guard by first loosening the two nuts at the end of each extension
rod. Then remove one of the two washers from each extending rod, leaving one washer in place.
Position the guard on the extension rods so that the ends of each rod extend through the two
holes on front of the guards. Replace the washers and nuts and securely fasten.
CAUTION: Do not operate the T-1000 without a funnel, guard or covers properly positioned.
Machine Height Adjustment: The height of the T-1000 is adjustable. To change the height
of the machine, three (3) people total are required. With two people holding the weight of the
machine, loosen the two bolts located on the leg, clamping the outer leg to the inner leg (Fig
2-4). Raise or lower the T-1000 to the desired height, and tighten the two bolts.
CAUTION: Unless properly supported the T-1000 will drop suddenly when loosening the
height adjust bolts.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to adjust the height without the assistance of at least two other
people supporting the weight .
