Introduction The Pregis Quantum XT machine dispenses recycled paper void-fill material both on demand and in predetermined lengths. The ability to distribute paper void-fill material on demand saves storage space and reduces packaging material waste. Paper void-fill material is available in 52gsm and 70gsm rolls. The lengths of these rolls are 660m and 400m respectively.
Please read and understand the manual including all of the dangers, warnings, and cautionary statements. If after reading the manual you have any questions, contact your supervisor or your Pregis service technician to get answers before operating the machine.
3. Never damage or remove factory installed safety stickers. If a safety sticker ever becomes lost, damaged, or illegible, report this condition to a supervisor and obtain a replacement sticker from Pregis. 4. Keep the work area clean and uncluttered. Walking surfaces should always be free of packing material and debris to prevent a slipping or tripping hazard.

Operation 1. DO NOT attempt to disable any safety feature. 2. DO NOT place any body part or foreign object into the drive. 3. DO NOT operate the machine if any part of your body becomes fatigued. 4. DO NOT operate the machine if you are under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medications that can make you less alert or affect your judgment.
Manual Feed-to-Length Mode (FTL): This setting allows the operator to dispense a preset length of material by activating the foot pedal briefly (i.e. “tapping” the foot pedal). Once the foot pedal is “tapped” the machine will dispense a preset length of material. The operator must repeat this process to receive additional, preset lengths of material.
Auto Feed-to-Length Mode (A-FTL): This setting allows the operator to dispense a preset length of material. Once the Powered Tear Assist feature is activated (see Powered Tear Assist section) the machine will automatically dispense another preset length of material (same as previous). This pro- cess will continue as long as the machine is in A-FTL mode.
Powered Tear Assist (PTA): This feature was designed to reduce the amount of force required to tear the packaging material. Once the material has been dispensed, the Powered Tear Assist feature becomes active. To use this feature, simply pull the void-fill material against the Tear Assist Assembly in a downward motion as shown below.
