Before complying with the following
inspection procedure, make sure power has
been disconnected.
8 HOUR INSPECTION
1. Clean machine thoroughly with air hose and
check for obstructions, loose fasteners, etc.
2. Lubricate vibrator shaft (125). A slow down
in vibrating sound during welding cycle is an
indication of lack of lubrication. If this occurs,
grease more frequently. Use Stailube #5225-
01 multipurpose grease or equivalent.
3. Inspect tension and feed wheels (170 and 171)
and pinch roller needle bearing (157).
4. Clean tension wheel (170).
40 HOUR INSPECTION
1. Cycle machine to open vibrator (134). Inspect
and clean serrations. Check for freedom of
movement.
2. Check release wedge (168), retainer plate
(152), inner side plate (155), and outer side
plate (164) for wear. Inspect strap entry
guides (172 and 173) for burrs or obstructions.
Check back up roller (156) to tension wheel
(170) and feedwheel (171). Clearance not to
exceed .011" (.28mm).
3. Clean all fittings.
4. Inspect drop out arm (159) for freedom of
movement. Lubricate pivot lightly if
necessary.
5. Adjust all belts and motor mounting brackets
for proper belt tension.

plate (120). Check plate grooves for burrs
and galling.
3. Check slip clutch (57) setting. Should read
65lbs. (289N) ±10lbs. Adjust if necessary.
4. Check gear housing oil level and add oil as
required. Fill gear housing with
approximately 1 gallon (3.8 liters) of oil,
using Shell Gear Oil EP #80, Texaco Meropa
Lube #1, Mobil EP #80-90 or Gulf all Purpose
Gear Oil #80.

Fill gear housing with approximately 1 gallon of
either of the following oils: Shell Gear Oil EP
#80, Texaco Meropa Lube #1, Mobile EP#80-90
or Gulf All Purpose Gear Oil #80.
NOTE: Due to lubricant incompatibility,
lubricants being used in the machine should not
be mixed together. Replace any lubricants with
identical ones being used.
CLEANING NOTE: Where high pressure steam or
water cleaning regulations are required,
adequate coverage of the machine and strapping
dispenser will be necessary, unless equipped for
portability wherein the machine can be
temporarily removed during the cleaning
