1. EYE INJURY HAZARD.
Failure to wear safety glasses with side shields can
result in severe eye injury or blindness. Always wear
safety glasses with side shields which conform to ANSI
Standard Z87.1.

2. STRAP BREAKAGE HAZARD.
Improper operation of the tool or sharp corners on the
load can result in strap breakage during tensioning,
which could result in the following:
. A sudden loss of balance causing you to fall.
. Both tool and strap flying violently towards
your face.
Failure to place the strap properly around the load or on
an unstable or shifted load could result in a sudden loss
of strap tension during tensioning. This could result in
a sudden loss of balance causing you to fall.
Read the tools operating instructions. If the load
corners are sharp use edge protectors. Place the strap
correctly around a properly positioned load.
Positioning yourself in-line with the strap, during
tensioning and sealing, can result in severe personal
injury from flying strap or tool. When tensioning or
sealing, position yourself to one side of the strap and
keep all bystanders away.

3. FALL HAZARD.
Maintaining improper footing and/or balance when
operating the tool can cause you to fall. Do not use the
tool when you are in an awkward position.

4. CUT HAZARD.
Handling strap or sharp parts could result in cut hands
or fingers. Wear protective gloves.

5. TRAINING.
This tool must not be used by persons not properly
trained in their use. Be certain that you receive proper
training from your employer. If you have any questions
contact your Kemex Representative.

6. TOOL CARE.
Take good care of the tool. Inspect and clean it daily,
lubricate it weekly and adjust when necessary. Replace
any worn or broken parts.

7. WORK AREA.
Keep work areas uncluttered and well lighted.

STRAP SPECIFICATIONS
Width: 5/8" to 3/4" Steel
Gauge: Up to .035" Thick

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Drape strapping around the container as illustrated. Take up slack, keeping straps squarely in line.

 

 









2. While standing to one side of the strap line, hold the hand tensioned strap in position with your left hand, grasp the tool in your right hand and squeeze the handle to the base, thus, lifting the feedwheel. Position the rear foot over the strap and then slide the front foot under the overlapping ends approximately 1" ahead of the lower strap end.

3. Release grip on tool to engage strapping,
being sure strap is in alignment with tool.
Tension is obtained through continuous up and
down motion with the handle.
WARNING:
On downward strokes
do not allow the handle to press against
the base as this will raise the feedwheel
and release the tensioned strap.

4. Snap seal on both layers of strap directly in front of the tool.

5. Hold the sealing tool at a right angle to the
strap, resting it squarely over the seal.
Seal the tensioned strap by bringing the
sealer handles together as far as they will go.

6. Return the tensioning handle to rest on the tool, depressing the handle pawl with your thumb. Squeeze the handle to the base and
remove the tool from the strap by swinging the rear foot out as illustrated.

7. Carefully bend the excess strap sharply back on the seal. If the excess strap is loose (not connected to a dispenser) hold down on the
loose end of strap to prevent personal injury.
Additional bends will result in a clean strap break off.
