GP44 Semi-Automatic Strapping Machine
OPERATION -31-
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
The machine has been designed to be a very low maintenance, reliable machine.
However, by following some basic preventative maintenance, the machine will perform trouble free for many
years.
CAUTION:
Always disconnect the power supply and use extreme caution when performing any maintenance or when
using compressed air to clean the machine. Always wear safety glasses. Maintenance should only be
performed by people familiar with the operation of the machine.
NOTE: This is only a suggested guide to periodic maintenance. Depending on the frequency of use, the
environment and the type of parcel being strapped, maintenance should be adjusted to assure optimum
performance.
DAILY CLEANING AND INSPECTION
:
1. The machine should be thoroughly blown out and have all paper debris removed daily. This will
remove the strap dust, paper dust, scraps of paper, or fragments of strap left in the machine from
previous operation.
2. Use an air blowgun.
Pay close attention to the strap seal head and strap accumulation chamber.
Remove the strap from the machine and open the door of the accumulator to clean it properly. Also
take the time to blow out around the strap track and the feed and retract rollers.
3. Check the air filter of the air compressor for the air blowgun and let any water out of the filter that
has accumulated.
DANGER: During the next steps, power will be applied to the machine.
Extreme caution should be exercised anytime the machine is running or power is applied.
