Inspect the joint to make sure the straps
have been properly welded.

SEALING OPERATION
This tool is a Tension Weld® type
sealer. A properly made joint will
appear as shown in the illustration.
If the joint does not appear as shown,
then the operator must proceed as
follows:
1. Insure that the tool operating
instructions are being followed
before applying another strap.
2. Cut the strap off and apply another.
A good weld will show some material
displacement along the edges.
The welded area should extend the
full length and width of the gripper
impression.
If the joint still does not appear as
shown, then inspect the tool for worn
and/or damaged parts. Replace tool
parts as needed. NEVER HANDLE OR
SHIP ANY LOAD WITH IMPROPERLY
FORMED JOINTS. Misformed joints
may not secure the load and could
cause serious injury.
