How to properly overwrap packages


USE CAUTION WHEN WRAPPING PACKAGES AS THE CUT-OFF ROD AND PLATE ARE HOT TO THE TOUCH

  1. Place package to be wrapped in the center of the package rest. Using both hands, grasp film at outer edges and with an even, steady, outward motion pull toward yourself enough film to fit over and around the entire package to be wrapped.
  2. Place film over package and tuck under around 2 inches of film along the edge farthest from you. As you tuck the film, begin to pull the package towards you. At this time the package will be enclosed within the film. Please note that when you pull the film towards you that the proper film tension and most of the wrinkles have been removed before sealing package.
  3. Hold turned under film in place and using both hands, place the package on the hot plate to make the first seal. During this step the cut-off rod automatically softens the film so that it will separate from the film roll.
  4. Lift the wrapped package and tuck under the excess film on the sides of the package to make a tight package and then run across the hot plate to make the final seal. Note that the unused film from the roll should be resting on the cut-off rod waiting for the operator to wrap the next package.

Energy Saving with 12 Hour Timer


  • The twelve hour timer automatically turns the wrapper off (anywhere from one to twelve hours) after being set.
  • The twelve hour timers help to increase the life of the Heating Elements and other electrical components and conserve energy.
  • The timer itself consumes no additional energy.
  • The twelve hour time replaces the “ON/OFF” switch.

Operating & Service Manuals for Overwrappers

Troubleshooting

Hot plate is smoking


When an overwrapper is brand new, the element might burn off an excess of the protective coating.  This should last no longer than 10-15 minutes.


Hot plate works, but hot rod doesn't


A standard 110V Neon circuit tester can be used for testing.

Hot Rod, Circuit Board and Fuse Holder work together. Hot Plate, Thermostat and Element work together. Hot Plate and Hot Rod are independent of each other.

1) Check the fuse - With the power OFF, disconnect red wire from Terminal 1 and secure it out of the way without touching any metal. With power ON, test across Terminals 3 and 4. If tester does not light, replace fuse.
2) Check the circuit board - With the power OFF, disconnect red wire from Terminal 1 and secure it out of the way without touching any metal. With power ON, test across Terminals 1 and 2. If tester does not light, replace circuit board.
3) Test the Hot rod - With the power OFF, disconnect red wire from Terminal 1 and secure it out of the way without touching any metal. With power ON, test between Terminal 1 and end of disconnected wire. if tester does not light, replace the hot rod.

WHEN REPLACING THE HOT ROD OR CIRCUIT BOARD IT IS RECOMMENDED TO REPLACE BOTH SINCE THEY WORK HAND IN HAND WITH EACH OTHER.

 


Hot rod is not hot enough, or too hot


♦ This unit should NOT be operated if rod temperature exceeds 300 degrees fahrenheit.  If smoke or fumes are detected, discontinue use. ♦

A standard 110V Neon circuit tester can be used for testing.

1) Check the circuit board - With the power OFF, disconnect red wire from Terminal 1 and secure it out of the way without touching any metal. If potentiometer has been adjusted the rod will no longer work correctly. With power ON, test across Terminals 1 and 2. If tester does not light, replace circuit board.
2) Test the Hot rod - With the power OFF, disconnect red wire from Terminal 1 and secure it out of the way without touching any metal. With power ON, test between Terminal 1 and end of disconnected wire. if tester does not light, replace the hot rod.

 


Hot rod is cold

  2. Check the circuit board - With the power OFF, disconnect red wire from Terminal 1 and secure it out of the way without touching any metal. With power ON, test across Terminals 1 and 2. If tester does not light, replace circuit board.
  3. Test the Hot rod - With the power OFF, disconnect red wire from Terminal 1 and secure it out of the way without touching any metal. With power ON, test between Terminal 1 and end of disconnected wire. if tester does not light, replace the hot rod.
