!Never operate a pneumatic tool with a bottled air or gas source.
!For tension adjustments, follow instructions in this manual. For all other adjustments,
repairs or cleaning of the tool, disconnect air supply.
!This tool is a Tension Weld® type sealer. A properly made
joint will appear as shown in the illustration. If the joint does
not appear as shown, then the operator must proceed as
follows:
A. Insure that the tools operating instructions are
being followed before applying another strap.
B. Cut the strap off and apply another.
If the joint still does not appear as shown, then inspect the tool for worn and/or damaged parts.
Replace tool parts as needed. NEVER HANDLE OR SHIP ANY LOAD WITH IMPROPERLY
FORMED JOINTS. Misformed joints may not secure the load and could cause serious injury.
!Tuck strap end back into the dispenser when not in use.
CUTTING TENSIONED STRAP
Use only cutters designed for cutting strap; never use claw hammers, crowbars, chisels, axes or
similar tools. Such tools will cause the strap to fly apart with hazardous force. Before using any

PNEUMATIC INFORMATION
AIR PRESSURE REQUIREMENTS
The VT tools are designed to operate at an air pressure of 90 psig (6.2 Bar).
AIR PRESSURE VS. PERFORMANCE
The air pressure supplied to the VT tool must be a minimum of 85 psig (5.7 Bar) If the air supply
pressure can be adjusted within a range from 85 psi to 90 psi (5.7 - 6.2 Bar) the VT tool's
performance can be fine tuned to a particular application or operation preferences. Changing the
VT air supply pressure to the tool will directly alter the rate at which the tool will take-up the
strap slack and the strap tension. Increasing or decreasing the VT air supply within the
suggested 85 to 90 psig (5.7-6.2 Bar) range will not seriously affect the actual welding portion of
the strap cycle.
After an initial "Break-In" period, the air motor may become more powerful. If the tool's
performance is effected by this increase in performance, reduce the air motor output by turning
the adjustment screw (Key 98) counter-clockwise as required.
AIR SUPPLY INSTALLATION
If compressor has a good dryer unit, use black pickled pipe. When a dryer unit is not installed,
use galvanized or copper pipe. To perform reliably, a pneumatic tool requires a continuous
source of clean, water-free air at adequate pressure.
Never operate this tool using a bottled air or gas source.
Bottled air/gas sources do not provide consistent operating pressure.
A filter-regulator-lubricator (FRL) unit
must be installed as close to the air
tool as possible, preferably within 10
feet. It should be placed in a
convenient location where it can
easily be drained, adjusted, and filled
with oil. The air hose must have at
least a 1/2" I.D. A quick disconnect
socket fitting is installed on the
stress spring end of the hose for
convenient hookup to the air tool.

Filter and lubricator bowls are made of polycarbonate material. Do not install where bowls may
be exposed to materials incompatible with polycarbonate. Certain oils, solvents, and chemicals
or their fumes can weaken these bowls and possibly cause them to burst. Clean only with warm
water. A cut-off valve placed ahead of the filter will be useful when cleaning the filter or
replenishing the lubricator.
MOISTURE
Moisture is always present in air lines due to condensation within the lines as the air cools.
Steps must be taken to remove this moisture and to keep it from the air tool. This is because
water tends to wash away lubricants and cause corrosion, sticking and failure of internal parts.
The main line should be pitched so the far end terminates in a water leg. Branch lines are taken
from the top of the main, never off the bottom. Every branch should have a water leg at its
lowest point, with a drain cock which is drained daily.
If these precautions are taken and water is still present, an after cooler and a moisture separator
are required between the compressor and the air receiver tank. A large air line separator can be
installed in the air tool line, but precautions must be taken to insure that it will be drained daily,
before the air tool is operated.
Water in air lines is a constant threat to the proper operation of air tool. Even near freezing
operating conditions, a good refrigerant type dryer is essential. A good dryer will remove 95%
or more of water right at the compressor. The remaining moisture is removed at the water leg in
the piping system or in the filter (Part No. 008559).
NOTE: Additional information is available in the Signode publication, "Air Supply Manual" (Part
No. 186038). If you have any questions, contact your local Signode Representative.
LUBRICATION
The air motor must be properly lubricated. This is achieved by keeping the air line lubricator
filled with oil and correctly adjusted. Without proper lubrication, the motor will become sticky
and the tool will give low and erratic tension and be difficult to release from the strap.
Install the lubricator as close to the air tool as possible. The arrow on the lubricator's top
surface must point in the direction of air flow. For proper operation, oil must drop through the
lubricator sight glass at a rate of 1 to 4 drops per minute. This rate is checked while the air tool
is running free. Only 20% of this oil is actually delivered to the tool. The remaining oil drops
back into the oil reservoir. The unit is factory set and should require no adjustment. If an
adjustment is required, the adjusting screw on top of the lubricator may be turned as marked to
reduce or increase the flow of oil.
The correct grade of oil must be used in the lubricator; too heavy an oil will not provide sufficient
lubrication and will cause sticking and sluggish operation of the air tool. Recommended oils are
any good grade of rust and oxidation inhibiting oil with a viscosity of 80-120 S.U.S. at 100
degrees Fahrenheit. (0.15 to 0.25 cm2/sec. at 38 degrees Celsius), such as:
Non Fluid Oil Co., grade #LS-1236 Signode oil - Part No. 008556
If necessary, use SAE #5 or SAE #10 non-detergent, cut 1 to 1 with kerosene.
NOTE: Some oils contain anti-wear additives which may disable the air motor. Be certain to use
recommended oil.

8
PNEUMATIC INFORMATION, Continued
Several drops of lubricator oil added to the inlet of the air motor or into the air line each day will
help insure good operation. A noticeable reduction of air motor performance can usually be
corrected by squirting a few drops of oil into the air line.
STRAP TENSION
Strap tension is controlled by turning the adjustment
screw (Key 98) as shown by arrow, in 1/4 increment
turns counter-clockwise to increase strap tension
and clockwise to reduce strap tension.
NOTE: Operating air pressure must be set between 85
and 90 psi (5.7-6.2 Bar). With accurately controlled air
pressure the tension will be uniform on all straps,
provided the operator allows the air motor to stall.
Strap breakage hazard.
Strap can break if inlet air pressure to tool exceeds 90 psig (6.2 bar).
Strap breakage can result in severe personal injury.
Maximum operating air pressure is 90 psig (6.2 bar).
AIR CONSUMPTION
Air consumption in cubic feet per minute (cfm) for the VT can be calculated as follows: cfm = (a)
x (b) x (0.40)
a = Number of straps applied per minute.
b = Number of seconds motor is on per strap during tensioning, from start to deceleration
to stall including stall time while making joint.
0.40 = VT efficiency ratio.
Example Calculation: Peak strapping load is 4 straps/min. so a = 4
Air motor is on 5 seconds/strap, so b = 5
VT efficiency ratio is 0.40
(a)x(b)x(0.40) 64x5x0.40=8 cubic ft/min.
4x5x0.67=13.4 cubic meters/hr. (13.4M3/hr.)
Air pressure is assumed to be 90 psig (6.2 Bar) with recommended size and length of air hose.
Volume of air is at room temperature and sea level pressure, or so-called "free air" conditions.
For more detailed information about air supply systems refer to Signode manual Part No. 186038.

COLD WEATHER OPERATION
If a tool does not operate satisfactorily in freezing temperatures, certain steps can correct the
problem. The following steps can be taken to improve cold weather operation of the tool:
a. An air line dryer adjacent to the compressor.
b. Use lubricant recommended by Signode. Signode has tested the use of anti-freezes, none
work well in air tool; the tool will gum up when anti-freezes are introduced and will not
function properly. The best lubricant for freezing weather is the 1 to 1 oil and kerosene
combination.
c. If possible, run the air supply line to a indoor located Filter-Regulator-Lubricator or relocate
the F-R-L to a warmer operating area.
AIR PRESSURE DROP
Confirm air pressure calibration by
comparing it to a master gauge
placed in-line where the quick
disconnect fitting attaches to the
tool.
Air pressure at the tool can then
be monitored as the tool cycles.
Use the following information
shown on the chart below for
comparing the various minimum
air pressures while the VT tool
cycles.
If pressure readings fall below the minimums, inspect your air supply system as well as the tool
for worn and/or broken parts. Contact your Signode representative if you have any questions.

PNEUMATIC INFORMATION, Continued
AIR PRESSURE INDICATOR
The VT-32 is equipped with an air
pressure indicator built into the
tool. During the sealing step of
the tool operation a Blue pressure
indicator will pop up from the tool
cover (as shown) indicating that
there is at least 70psi of supply
air pressure. If the indicator does
not pop up check your air supply,
regulator settings and supply
hoses. It is not recommended to
use a VT-32 that cannot be
supplied with the minimum of 70
psi during use.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Wear safety glasses. Stand to one side of the strap when tensioning.
Make sure all bystanders are clear before proceeding.
PLEASE NOTE: Do not operate tool without strap, as damage to the tool may occur.
1. With the dispenser placed
behind you, bring the strap over
the top and around the package,
place the straps together and
remove any excess slack.
2. Using your right hand, squeeze
the tension motor and
stationary handle together to
open the feedwheel and strap
path. Using your left hand,
insert the overlapped straps
under the feedwheel and
through the welding
mechanism.
Leave only a short tail ahead of
the feedwheel and make sure
straps are aligned behind the
tool. Do not make a joint over a
void area of the package.

12
3. Recheck the strap alignment at
the rear of the tool and realign if
necessary. Release the tension
motor.
Press down the Green Tension
Control Lever to begin
tensioning the strap.
When the tension motor stalls, indicating completion of tension, release the control lever.
The strap will remain tensioned around the package.
NOTE: If the strap alignment is unsatisfactory or the tool needs to be removed before sealing.
First, move the Red tension release latch to the left to disengage the tension motor. Continue
to remove the tool from the strap by first lifting up the tension release lever found on the
bottom of the gear housing while squeezing the tension motor and stationary handle together
to open the strap path.
4. Press the Blue Sealer Control
lever to begin the sealing cycle.
It is not necessary to continue
holding the lever down once the
weld cycle has started.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS, Continued
5. The internal weld timer is
energized. The main piston
brings the welding pads
together and the strap is
welded.
The supply end of the strap is
then cut off. Pull the cut strap
away from the tool during
welding. The tool will continue
through the weld cycle and stop
automatically.
6. When the weld cycle has completed the weld mechanism slowly returns to the neutral
position. This allows the newly welded strap joint to cool down properly. The tool can be
easily removed once the weld mechanism has completely returned to the neutral position.
NOTE: The weld
mechanism’s return to the
neutral position can be
identified by the indicator
located on the top of the
tool. When the indicator is
in the down position the
weld mechanism is still
engaging the strap. When
the indicator is in the up
position the weld
mechanism has returned to
the neutral position. The
tool can then be easily
removed from the strap.
Remove the tool from the strap by first
lifting up the tension release lever found
on the bottom of the gear housing while
squeezing the tension motor and
stationary handle together to open the
strap path.
NOTE: Failure to wait for the weld mechanism to return to the neutral position may lead to an
improperly formed joint which may lead to joint separation and make tool removal difficult.

14
7. Swing the tool out from the
completed strap joint. Inspect
the joint to make sure the straps
have been properly welded.
STRAP JOINT INSPECTION
This tool is a Tension Weld® type sealer. A properly made joint will appear as shown in the
illustration. If the joint does not appear as shown, then the operator must proceed as
follows:
1. Insure that the tool operating instructions are being followed before applying another
strap.
2. Cut the strap off and apply another.
A good weld will show some material displacement along
the edges. The welded area should extend the full length
and width of the gripper impression.
If the joint still does not appear as shown, then inspect the tool for worn and/or damaged
parts. Replace tool parts as needed. NEVER HANDLE OR SHIP ANY LOAD WITH
IMPROPERLY FORMED JOINTS. Misformed joints may not secure the load and could cause
serious injury.

LOCATION OF WELD TIME ADJUSTMENT
LOCATION OF COOL TIME ADJUSTMENT
TOOL ADJUSTMENTS
WELDING TIME
Weld time has been factory adjusted to provide acceptable weld strength when using High
Strength Tenax (polyester) type strap. Weld time may need to be adjusted due to air supply
differences, tool wear, etc. Adjustments are made by turning the adjustment screw, located on
the cover plate, using a small screwdriver. Turn the screw clockwise to increase weld time and
counterclockwise to decrease weld time.
Establishing the correct weld time is a matter of trial and error and should be conducted as
follows.
1. Remove the cap which protects the adjustment
screw. Adjust the screw in 1/8 to 1/4 turn
increments only.
2. Apply a strap and make a weld.
3. Compare the weld made with the illustrations
shown on page 13 of this manual. A good weld will
displace some material along the outer edges of the
joint.
4. If you are unable to produce an acceptable joint or
if you have any questions as to whether your tool is
producing good weld strength, contact your
Signode Sales Representative.
5. Replace the cap over the screw.
WELD COOLING TIME
Cool time has been factory adjusted to allow the proper time for a weld to properly cool. The cool
time adjust controls how fast or slow the main piston bleeds off air pressure allowing the weld
pads to separate from one another.
Cool time may also need to be adjusted due to air supply differences, tool wear, etc. Adjustments
are made similar to weld time. Turning the screw clockwise increases cool time and
counterclockwise to decrease cooling time.
Establishing the correct cool time is a matter of trial and error and should be conducted as
follows.
1. Remove the cap which protects the adjustment
screw. Adjust the screw in 1/8 to 1/4 turn
increments only.
2. Apply a strap and make a weld.
3. A properly adjusted cool time should allow the
strap joint to cool for approximately three to five
seconds.
NOTE: Cool time which is too short may lead to
strap joint separation.
4. Replace the cap over the screw.

16
FEEDWHEEL ADJUSTMENT
SCREW LOCATION (ARROW)
FEEDWHEEL TO GRIPPER PLUG
The feedwheel to gripper plug clearance may require readjustment if the feedwheel or gripper
plug has been replaced. The feedwheel clearance should also be inspected during routine tool
maintenance procedures. Adjust the feedwheel clearance as follows:
1. Squeeze the tension motor and stationary handle
together to open the feedwheel gap. Place multiple
(4 to 8) layers of .002", 1/2" wide (.05 x 12mm) shim
stock between the feedwheel and the gripper plug.
NOTE: Do not use a single shim such as .008"
(.20mm) as thicker shims may not conform to the
feedwheel shape, resulting in inaccurate clearance
measurements.
2. Release the tensioner motor to pinch the shims
between the feedwheel and the gripper plug.
Holding the shims with one hand, jog the tension
motor on and off to rotate the feedwheel at least
one full revolution. If properly adjusted the tool
should lightly tug at the shims while rotating. Clearance between the feedwheel and gripper
plug at this point should fall between .008" to .016 (.20mm to .40mm).
3. If the feedwheel needs to be adjusted, use a 3mm hex
wrench to turn the adjustment screw which can be
accessed through the bottom of the tool base.
NOTE: On VT-16 BRK tool the bottom wear plate must
first be removed to access the adjustment screw.
Turn the adjustment screw clockwise for greater
clearance and counter-clockwise for less clearance.
Turn the adjustment screw only in 1/8 turn increments.
After each 1/8 turn, repeat the adjustment testing as
described in step 2.
4. Once the proper clearance has been found the tool
can be returned to service.
NOTE: Never turn out the adjustment screw more than 1/8 turn at a time without testing or
completely remove the adjustment screw. These actions will severely damage both the
feedwheel and gripper plug.
STRAP TENSION
Strap tension is controlled by turning the adjustment
screw (Key 98) as shown by arrow, in 1/4 increment turns
counter-clockwise to increase strap tension and clockwise
to reduce strap tension. Use the 4mm hexwrench (Signode
Part No. 274467) included with every new tool.
NOTE: Operating air pressure must be set between 85 and
90 psi (5.7-6.2 Bar). With accurately controlled air pressure
the tension will be uniform on all straps, provided the
operator allows the air motor to stall.

17
TOOL ADJUSTMENTS, Continued
STRAP CUTTER
The VT strap cutter has two serrated cutting edges.
After the first edge has become dull or strap cut-off
becomes difficult the blade can be remounted to use
the second cutting edge. Once both edges have
become worn the blade should be replaced. Use the
instructions below to remount, install and adjust a
new cutter blade.
1. Remove the two mounting screws which secure
the air motor to the tool body. Remove the weld
motor from the tool by turning the motor
counter-clockwise to release the O-ring which
seats on the top of the motor.
NOTE: The small spring contained in the holder does not need to be removed to change
the cutter blade.
2. The cutter blade group of parts can now be removed from the tool. Continue to also remove
the cutter pin from the tool.
3. Remove the two smaller screws which mount the cutter blade to the holder. Rotate the cutter
blade to the new cutting edge and reinstall the mounting screws.
NOTE: If both cutting edges are worn replace the cutter blade at this point.
4. Reinstall the cutter group of parts back into the tool. Before installing the cutter pin inspect
the cutter holder movement within the tool.
A. The holder should move freely up and
down in the tool body. If the holder does
not move freely inspect the tool for debris
or damage.
NOTE: If the holder has been replaced
it may also be necessary to adjust the
clearance of the two cutter guides.
B. The holder should not be able to move
from side to side. Excessive side to side
clearance will result in poor strap cut-off.
If the holder does move side to side,
loosen the four mounting screws which
secure the side guides. Move the guides
as needed to obtain a 0.025mm to 0.127mm
(0.001"-0.005") clearance.
C. Tighten the mounting screws.
5. Once the cutter holder has been inspected and adjusted, continue to reinstall the remaining
parts in the order that they were removed.
6. Run a few test cycles on the tool to confirm that the strap cut-off performs properly.
