Safe Use Recommendations:
We strive to identify all hazards associated with the use of our products. However, material handling is dangerous and
no manual can address every risk. The end-user ultimately is responsible for exercising sound judgment at all times.
Material handling is dangerous. Improper or careless operation of this wrapping machine might result
in serious personal injuries.
Failure to read and understand the entire manual before assembling, using or servicing the product
constitutes misuse.Read the manual whenever necessary to refresh your understanding of proper use and
maintenance procedures.
DO NOT use the wrapping machine unless it is in normal operating condition. Inspect the unit as described in the
inspection instructions on p. 9 to determine whether it is functioning normally. DO NOT use the machine unless it
passes every part of the inspection or until it is restored to normal operating condition.
DO NOT use the machine to lift, carry, or transport items or people.
Always watch the carriage carefully while raising and lowering it.
This crane is designed for material handling ONLY. DO NOT use the crane to lift people.
ALWAYS load the wrapping material properly (see “Loading stretch wrap” on p. 8).
If repairs are necessary, ONLY install manufacturer-approved replacement parts.
The carriage (see item no. 2 on p. 4 & 6) should elevate and lower smoothly. Watch for binding or jerky movement
and listen for unusual noises. Remove the unit from service if you observe anything abnormal.
DO NOT use this wrapping machine UNLESS all labels are in place & readable (see “Labeling diagram” on p. 11.)
DO NOT modify this product in any way. Modifying the machine automatically voids the limited warranty and might
make it unsafe to use.
Proper use and maintenance are essential for this product to function properly.
Always use this product in accordance with the instructions in this manual.
Periodically lubricate moving parts.
Keep the product clean & dry at all times. Always store the unit inside.
Only use approved replacement parts. To order replacement or spare parts for this equipment, contact the factory.

Operation:
This product is not self-propelled. To move the unit, lower the carriage; then push it carefully to the work location.
Vertical travel of the carriage is controlled electronically via the touchpad (see item no. 12 on p. 4). Use the
RAISE and LOWER buttons to adjust the vertical position of the carriage as the application requires.
The travel speed of the carriage is adjustable. Press the FASTER button to increase travel speed, or press the
SLOWER button to decrease speed. The SPEED gauge between the buttons indicates the current speed setting.
To wrap an object, attach the free end of the wrap to it. Push the wrapping machine around the object to
dispense wrap. When the wrapping process is finished, cut the wrap (for example with a utility knife). Lower the
carriage and move the unit to its storage location. Apply the caster brakes (see FIG.
Store the wrapping machine in a dry, indoor location to protect the electronic components.

Rev. 5/19/2015 PEL-88-A-SWA, MANUAL.doc

System power:
Power is supplied by two 12V batteries. Both batteries are
completely sealed and are therefore maintenance free.
To recharge the batteries, every wrapping machine includes a
24V charger. The charger operates on 115 VAC and requires a
3-prong (grounded) extension cord. The charger monitors and
reacts to the battery voltage during the recharging process.
When the batteries are fully charged, a green LED on the bottom
of the charger turns on (see diagrams to the right). The battery
charge gauge (see “Touchpad control” on p. 6) displays the
amount of battery charge remaining as a percentage of full
(100%) charge. To determine the true level of charge, wait at
least 1/2 hour after turning off the charger. If the voltage is
12.65V or more, then the batteries are fully charged.
Charge the batteries for at least 4 hours before using the
wrapping machine for the first time.
How frequently the batteries require charging depends on the
load applied to the batteries (i.e. how many times the carriage is
moved and how quickly—faster speed will drain the battery more
rapidly) and the duration and frequency of use. Experience will
dictate when the batteries should be charged.
Whenever recharging is begun, it should continue until the
batteries are fully charged. Do not interrupt the charging cycle.
Fully charging the batteries every time recharging is undertaken
maximizes battery life.
Recommendations regarding battery charging: 1) Recharge the batteries at least once every 2 weeks; 2) Leave
the charger plugged in when the unit is not in use (the battery charger can remain connected to the batteries for long
periods without causing damage to the batteries); 3) Disconnect the batteries when the unit will be unused for 1 month
or longer; 4) ALWAYS keep the wrapping machine dry.
Inspections & Maintenance:
If any of the inspections described below reveal problems, tag the unit “Out of Service”. Restore the machine to
normal operating condition BEFORE using it again.
A. Before each use, inspect the following components. Each component must be in normal operating condition. To
establish normal operating condition, make a thorough record of the appearance, sound, and function of the various
parts of the wrapping machine when you first receive it. Compare later observations to the record to determine
whether the machine is in normal operating condition.
1. Frame: examine the frame, roller brackets, and handle weldment. Look for damaged welds, warps, cracks, or
other deformations.
2. Casters: examine each caster. Confirm that casters are not severely worn, swivel freely, and that the brakes
firmly engage the wheels.
3. Carriage mechanism: cycle the carriage by raising it to the top of the mast and then lowering it completely. The
carriage should move smoothly and at a uniform rate up-and-down the mast. Watch for binding and listen for
unusual sounds.
4. Fasteners: check bolts and nuts. Make sure all fasteners are tightly connected.
5. Roller bearings: look inside the channel of the mast and examine the roller bearings of the carriage (see FIGS.
1 and 3). Clean the interior of the mast to remove debris that might interfere with the rollers.
B. At least once per month:
1. Wiring: inspect the electrical system and look for loose connections and damage.
2. Clean the machine: remove dirt and other matter from all surfaces.
3. Labels: refer to the “Labeling Diagram” on p. 10. Make sure that all labels are in place and readable.
4. Batteries: remove corrosion from the posts if present.

circuit.
c. If using optional hand control, plug
loose in touchpad socket.
d. Problem with motor or control.
e. Battery charger still plugged into
wall socket.
f. Circuit breaker or fuse blown.
a. Charge battery.
b. Inspect wiring. Perform circuit
continuity checks with meter (see
