My BS116 impulse sealer (no vacuum model) is burning the bags , not releasing quickly as it used to.

The Vacmaster BS116 impulse sealer may be burning bags and not releasing quickly due to incorrect time settings. If the sealing time (T1), heat time (T2), or cooling time (T3) are set too high, it can cause overheating and sticking. For initial testing, the recommended settings are:

- Sealing Time (T1): 0.5 seconds
- Heat Time (T2): 1.6 seconds
- Cooling Time (T3): 4 seconds

Check and adjust these settings to the recommended values to prevent burning and improve release.

@Mr. Anderson This model has none of those setting. It is not a vacuum model, just a sealer.
