1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow these instructions can result in severe personal injury.
Eye injury hazard
Failure to wear safety glasses with side shields can result in
severe eye injury or blindness. Always wear safety glasses with
side shields which conform to ANSI Standard Z87.1.
Operation
Tool must not be used by persons not properly trained in their use.
Before tensioning strap, read and understand the tool operating
instructions. Failure to follow the operating instructions or improper
load positioning could result in strap breakage.
Become familiar with your tool and keep fingers away from areas
that can pinch or cut.
Joints
You are fully responsible to review the joints made by your tool.
Become familiar with the seal control and seal adjustment descri-
bed in this operation manual. Misformed joints may not secure the
load and could cause serious injury. Never handle or ship any load
with improperly formed joints.
Dispensing strap
Only dispense strap from a dispenser specifically designed for
strap.
Tuck strap end back into dispenser when not in use.
Protective gloves
When handling strap, always wear protective gloves.
Strap warnings
Never use strap as a means of pulling or lifting loads. Failure to fol-
low these warnings can result in severe personal injury.
Strap breakage hazard
Improper operation of the tool, excessive tensioning, using strap
not recommended for this tool or sharp corners on the load can
result in a sudden loss of strap tension or in strap breakage during
tensioning, which could result in the following:
• A sudden loss of balance causing you to fall.
• Both tool and strap flying violently towards your face.
Note as follows:
• If the load corners are sharp, use edge protectors.
• Place the strap correctly around a properly positioned
load.
• Positioning yourself in-line with the strap, during tension-
ing and sealing, can result in severe personal injury from
flying strap or tool. When tensioning or sealing, position
yourself to one side of the strap and keep all bystanders
away.
• Use the correct strap quality, strap width, strap gauge and
strap tensile strength recommended in this manual for
your tool. Using strap not recommended for this tool can
result in strap breakage during tensioning.
Cutting tensioned strap
When cutting strapping, use the proper strapping cutter and keep
other personnel and yourself at a safe distance from the strap.
Always stand to side of the strap, away from the direction the loo-
sened strap end will fly. Use only cutters designed for strap and
never hammers, pliers, hacksaws, axes, etc.
Fall hazard
Keep your working area tidy. Untidiness of your working area may
cause a risk of injury. Maintaining improper footing and/or balance
when operating the tool can cause you to fall. Before tensioning
and especially in elevated areas, always establish good balance.
Both feet should be securely placed on a flat, solid surface, espe-
cially when working in elevated areas. Do not use the tool when
you are in an awkward position.
Pay attention to the rules and regulations for preventions of acci-
dent which are valid for the work place.
Tool hazards
A well maintained tool is a safe tool!
Check tool regularly for broken or worn parts. Do not operate a
tool with broken or worn parts.
Never modify any tool. Modification can result in severe bodily
injury.

5.6 Sound information
The A-weighted equivalent continuous sound level at the work place of the machine operator is
typical 83 dB (A).
This value was determined according to DIN 45 635 T3 (11.85).
5.7 Vibration information
The weighted effective value of the acceleration typically amounts to less than 2,5m/s2.
This value was determined according to DIN EN 28 662 T1 (01.93).
6 INSTALLATION
6.1 Compressed air connection
The compressed air is preferably connected to the tube connection A48.1306 using a coupling. An air-unit
consisting of a separator for water and dirt, a pressure regulator with a manometer and a lubricator should be
installed within a range of 15 ft / 5 meters. The compressed air must be free from dirt, rust and moisture.
6.2 Suspension of tool
It is possible to suspend the tool in its three main working positions on a spring loaded balancer by providing
the tool with the necessary suspension bracket. The standard suspension bracket A48.1301 is always
automatically supplied with the tool.

7 MAINTENANCE
Depending on the working conditions and the use of the tool the following maintenance has to be made
periodically:
7.1 Air - unit
• Checking the air-pressure daily.
• Checking oil-level daily.
• The water separator must be emptied before it is full (unless automatic).
• The filter has to be cleaned following the instructions of the manufacturer of the air- unit.
Oil for the air-unit
HL or CL ISO-VG 10
7.2 Cleaning
If impact of dirt and dust is considerable and if painted straps are used the feed wheel must be cleaned
regularly. Normally it is sufficient to blow out this part by using an air gun.
7.3 Lubrication
The worm gear is filled with MOLYKOTE BR 2 PLUS. Use the same type of grease after repairs.
When being exchanged, all valve parts and other movable parts have to be greased with grease of type
ESSO BEACON 2 or with any equivalent product.
The diaphragm must always be rubbed with TALCUM before being installed.
8 JOINT CONTROL
A regular control of the joint is necessary. The joint can be checked visually and the person controlling can
easily judge the quality of the joint. Following illustration shows a proper joint:
Sharp edged or misformed joints which do not appear as shown have to be taken away from the load
immediately. The tensile strength of these joints is insufficient and they could cause serious injury.
Having faulty joints proceed as follows:
• Checking the sealing cycle for improper use.(see OPERATION)
• Having faulty joints in spite of proper use, inspect the tool for worn or damaged parts. In case of
wearing out or damaging replace tool parts as needed.
