Basic Operation
You will need some bags and sample product to use during the initial set-up of the machine to match your specific
requirements.
1. Set the Vacuum Timer at # 5
2. Set the Seal Timer at # 5.
3. The PLC “Smart Seal System” will automatically set the cooling time.
4. Set Vacuum On/Off switch to the vacuum / seal position
5. Turn on the Power Switch.
6. While placing the open end of the vacuum bag into the sealer jaws, gently slide an
open portion of the bag around both vacuum nozzles, then between the Vacuum
Rubber and over the Seal Jaws.
7. Position the bag opening far enough into the seal jaws that the unsealed portion will
be clamped by the seal jaws in the location you desire your seal to be.
NOTE: If the item being packaged is too far from the nozzle ends, you may experience collapsing of the bag,
which will effectively ‘seal off’ the product region from being fully vacuumed. Solutions are a smaller bag, moving
the item closer to the nozzles, or manipulating the bag to create vacuum flow channels between the bag sides
during the vacuum cycle.
8. Once the bag has been satisfactorily positioned, pull both sides of the bag outward to
flatten the material between the seal jaws and minimize wrinkles.
9. Depress the Foot Switch, holding it down until the vacuum/seal jaws close and the
vacuum cycle begins (You will hear the vacuum exhaust from the machine rear.)
10. Release the Foot Switch once the Vacuum cycle begins.
11. Support the bag during the Vacuum and Seal cycles as needed until the machine
has finished.
12. Remove the vacuum-sealed bag and evaluate your results.
Adjust the Vacuum Timer until you achieve sufficient vacuum in your bag.
Adjust the Seal time using the following guidelines:
a. Use the lowest Seal Time that will give satisfactory results.
b. Always allow a sealed bag to return to room temperature before evaluating seal integrity.
