11.2.2.1 Replace Teflon tape and sealing wires
The procedure for replacing the Teflon tape or sealing wires is as follows:
Replacing Teflon tape upper sealing bar
1. Disassemble the upper sealing bar (1): Loosen the safety screw (2) and then pull the sealing bar
(1) downwards. A firmly seated sealing bar can, depending on its actual position, be released
from the sealing bar holder with the aid of a screwdriver via the holes (6 or 7).

2. Disassemble the clamping bars (3) from both sides of the sealing bar by unscrewing the counter-
sunk screws (4).
3. Remove the Teflon tape (5).
4. Clean the sealing bar with acetone.
CAUTION
Risk of fire when using acetone. Only use acetone in well ventilated space and do not smoke or
ignite fires under any circumstances.
NOTICE
When changing the Teflon tape, check the sealing wires for tension; if this is insufficient, they
must likewise be replaced.
5. If the sealing wire is not to be replaced, insert a new Teflon tape and re-assemble the sealing bar
in reverse order. However, if the sealing wire is to be replaced, proceed as described below "Re-
placing sealing wire" after point 4.
