3 CONNECTING THE HANDSET TO THE POWER PACK
Before connecting the power pack to the electric supply the jaws or sealing head supplied should
be connected to the power pack.
This power pack should only be used with jaws or sealing heads compatible with it. The jaws or
sealing head supplied with this power pack are the following specification:
Star 121 Handset
If you wish to connect a different set of jaws or sealing head to this power pack, please contact
Star Universal with the new specification and power pack serial number so we can advise
compatibility.
With the power pack turned off take the large 6 pin plug on the end of the cable and connect it
to the socket on the back of the power pack. The plug will only fit one way round. Ensure the
two catches are engaged to give a strong connection.
If there is a green thermocouple plug, plug this into the green socket on the back of the machine.
The plug will only fit one way round
If there is a black 2 pin plug attached, plug this into the black 2 way socket. The plug will only fit
one way round. Turn the collar clockwise to secure the connection.
4 HANDSET OPERATION
SETTING JAW PRESSURE AND SAFETY SWITCH
To close the sealing jaws, apply pressure to the handle until the latch engages. The pressure
applied can be adjusted. If the jaw closure is too tight, release the two screws on the catching
mechanism. Tightening the screws will apply more pressure.
If the machine does not cycle when the jaws are closed and the start switch is pressed the jaws
closed sensors may be too far apart. Loosen the two screws holding them onto the jaw and move
closer together. Re tighten the screws.
MACHINE OPERATION
Once the weld and cool times have been set, along with the compensation if required, the sealer
is ready to use.
The operation involves placing the material to be sealed between the jaws, shutting the jaws
until the catch is made and pressing the start button. The machine automatically runs through
a weld and cool cycle. When the blue cool light goes out release the jaws by squeezing the
release lever and lifting the top jaw up.
When operating the machine ensure your hands or anyone else’s are not between the jaws. Try
and avoid touching the jaws if possible as they can become warm with continuous use.
