1. Introduction
This table impulse sealer is exceptionally easy to handle and
indispensable in factories, offices and anywhere where packaging is
necessary or the shelves need to be tied up. The machine is suitable for
plastic bag preparation and sealing of plastic bags filled with goods.
In order to prevent damage and accidents due to misuse the
machine can only be used by an operator trained to handle
the machine and ho read and understood the machine’s
user manual before starting the operation.
1.1. Capacity of the sealing machine
Types of film to be welded: LDPE, HDPE, PP, PVC, BOPP.
Possible film thickness: 10-200µm
Sealing length (depending on type of machine): 220, 320, 420, 620mm
Sealing width (all types of machine): 2.5mm
The thickness of film to be welded may depend on the type of the film
material. In every case it is advisable to carry out a trial sealing.
1.2. Identification of the machine
When contacting the customer service of the producer or the distributor
about the product please note the type and the serial number of the
machine that appears on the data table (Figure 1) on the back of the
machine.
Letter “C” indicates that the machine is powder coated (orange), the sign
“CI” means anodized (grey) finish with stainless fasteners. The numbers
after the type code indicate the maximal sealing length.

2. Ho to set up the machine
2.1. Transport and positioning of the machine
During transport and setup, handle the machine with great care.
Carefully lift the machine out of the cardboard box.
After unpacking, it is advisable to put the machine on a worktable.
2.2. Conditions of use
The machine shall be operated and stores in a dry room with good
ventilation away from inflammable materials, gases and other explosives.
Ideal operation room conditions:
Temperature: between + °C and +40°C
Relative humidity: between 30% and 90%

4. Operation
After connecting to the electricity, but before starting the sealing, set the
sealing time. Close the handle and push it down continuously until the
sealing time ends (while the LED (lamp) lights red the machine is sealing)

6
and afterwards for 1-2 seconds so that the film cools down. Cut the film
then lift the handle to default position.
For the appropriate operation of the machine it is
necessary to read and fully understand the entire
instruction manual.
5. Setup and operation of the machine
5.1. To-do before operation
Before starting the operation check that the machine is intact.
Do not use the machine if the connection plug, the
cables or any other parts are damaged. Electric shock
hazard!
5.2. Electric connection
Before connecting the machine to the electricity make sure that the
electricity voltage is identical to the voltage value of the data table (see:
Figure 1) on the back of the machine and that the grounded complies with
the safety provisions. In case of any doubts please refer to the local
Electricity Supplier.
Figure 3 Grounded electric plug
FOLLOW THE SAFETY REGULATIONS OF THE WORKPLACE.
NEVER USE THE MACHINE WITHOUT GROUNDING.

5.3. Setup
The machine is ready for operation after it is connected to the electricity
network. The yellow light of the LED (lamp) indicates the ready state.
(Figure 4 “a”).
The correct sealing time should be set referring to the type and width
of the used film. For effecting a trial sealing set the sealing time regulatory
button (Figure 4 “b”) to the lowest setting (1). Place the film between the
sealing head and the sealing electrode. Close the sealing head and wait
for the end of the sealing time while continuously pushing it down. During
sealing the light of the LED (lamp) (Figure 4 “a”) changes from yellow to
red. In order to achieve a perfect seal it is advisable to keep the handle
down for a few seconds after the sealing ends so that the seal cools down
under pressure and becomes extremely solid. After the cool down time lift
the handle and the seal is ready.
Figure 4 Operation setting
If the sealing of the film is not perfect or the bag is not sealed properly,
the sealing time has to be increased by changing the sealing time
regulatory button (Figure 4 “b”) to a higher setting.
The trial sealing always has to be carried out at a low setting and if
necessary the value needs to be increased by small steps. Sealing carried

8
out at a higher temperature than necessary, may result in the premature
wear of parts and the excessive melting of packaging material.
Never eld ithout film.
5.4. The use of the cutting knife
The knife is pulled back by a spring for safety reasons. By pressing
down the knife and moving it back and forth the film can be cut during the
sealing time. With the same operation, bags can be prepared from a film
roll (tube film).
Note: In order to achieve the best cutting result press the head of the
knife down at the middle of the film which is sealed and push forward and
backwards. This can prevent the breaking of film at the sides. (Figure 5).
Figure 5 Correct cutting technique
Never press do n the knife head hen the sealing bar is
open as the sharp knife may cause injuries. Before each use

9
al ays check that the knife is intact and that it is at its correct
position.
