GP44 Semi-Automatic Strapping Machine
OPERATION -16-
SET-UP
1) UNCRATING THE MACHINE
a) Remove the bolt holding the top of the crate to the pallet.
b) Remove the cross-braces that are nailed in to keep the machine from shifting.
c) Lift the top of the crate off of the pallet and set it aside.
d) Carefully remove stretch wrapping from the machine.
2) INSTALLING THE MACHINE
a) With a forklift placed under the framework of the machine, gently lift up the machine a minimal
distance to clear the pallet.
b) CAUTION: Make sure the forks are all the way through the far side of the frame.
c) Slide the pallet out from under the machine.
3) POWER REQUIREMENTS
DANGER: The following procedure should be preformed by a trained electrician.
a) Install a quick disconnect power plug onto the end of the cord.
b) Make sure to properly ground the machine to avoid a shock hazard.
c) Next check the machine for proper phasing of the three phase power if so equipped. The M2 (strap
Feed/Retract) motor is the only motor on the machine that is phase sensitive.
d) Load strap in the machine per the “Strap Loading Instructions’. If phasing is not correct, strap will load
up to the head, but will not complete loading around the arch, and Strap Feed light will not illuminate.
If this occurs, reverse phasing.
e) Load strap again, and strap should feed completely around the arch. The Strap Feed light will
illuminate signaling that strap feed was successful.
f) Make sure to verify that the machine is wired for correct voltage. See the “Electrical Hook-up” section
of the manual.
