Operating Environment: The T-1000-S14 should be placed in an area free of excessive heat, moisture,
dirt, and dust. Operating room temperature should range from 50°F to 100°F (10°C to 87.77°C).
2.4 Note on Adjustments to the T-1000-S14
Upon receipt, it is not unusual for the T-1000-S14 to be out of alignment due to shipping and excessive
handling. Unless physically damaged, the T-1000-S14 will function properly after minor adjustments are
made. Refer to Chapter 4 for information on adjustments to the T-1000-S14.
2.5 Air and Power Requirements
Power Requirements: Provisions must be made for 115 VAC, 50/60 Hz line current with ground. The
full load current for the T-1000-S14 is 12 Amps. APPI recommends a dedicated 20 Amp circuit for the T-
1000-S14.
Note: A qualified electrician should ensure that voltages are as required, amperage is sufficient, power
outlets are the required 115 VAC and power outlets are properly grounded before hooking up the
power. If the unit is not properly grounded, it will produce a shock and will not function properly.
Air Requirements: At least 2 CFM free air is required, regulated to 60 PSI (413.68 kPa). Air should be
dry and oil-free.
Note: Running the T-1000-S14 at a higher PSI setting than 60 PSI (413.68 kPa) will cause excessive
wear and may cause damage to components on the machine or parts being packaged. The anti-jam
function may also be adversely affected.
2.6 Assembly Instructions
Choose an operating location considering traffic flow, availability of bag supplies, supply of product to be
packaged, takeaway of finished packages, placement of auxiliary infeed equipment and placement of
takeaway conveyor(s). At the operating location, the first step is to remove any inner packaging, banding,
or wires.
Touch Screen Assembly / Position: The touch screen has been secured for transportation in a "face-in"
position with protective wrapping. Holding the touch screen to prevent it from falling, loosen the set
screw located in the clamp collar at the top of the upper "T" column. Pull the shaft from the clamp collar
approximately 6" (15.24 cm) and tighten the collar. Holding the touch screen module, loosen the "ball"
clamp lever and position the touch screen. See Figure 2-1.
CAUTION: To avoid damage to the touch screen module, hold the screen until it is in the desired
position and then be sure the screws and ball clamp lever are securely tightened.
Dancer Assembly: The dancer assembly, located on the stand at the rear of the T-1000-S14, is secured
with tape strapping during shipment. After the removal of the strapping, the dancer should be checked to
ensure it will rotate freely in a semicircular path. The shaft assembly may then be inserted into the dancer
frame brackets so it is over the brake stop for tension.
