4 SEAL BAR
•
Clean the sealing and counter bars daily to ensure optimum sealing of the packaging material. Use
a dry cloth for this purpose.
•
Check the condition of the sealing wires regularly. They should be free of kinks and should be
tightly strung on the sealing bar. For flawless operation the Teflon tape must be free of damage.
•
If the sealing wires or the Teflon tape are damaged, replace them immediately.
•
Check the counter bar. This is made of silicone which generally has a long operational life and
therefore does not need replacing often. However, if parts of the beam are scorched, replace the
silicone strip immediately.
•
Ensure that spare sealing wires and Teflon tape are always kept in stock.
