  • Page 16: Example Of Use

    EXAMPLES OF USE SHRINK-WRAPPING A LOADED PALLET Ask your film supplier for the operating instructions. The pallet must be lifted so that the four corners are accessible: the purpose of this is to allow the film to be shrunk under the pallet and so ensure very strong cohesion between the pallet and the load it supports.
  • Page 17 When you have stopped applying heat with the gun, the plastic film, because of its make-up, will continue to shrink for some time. This time will vary depending on the quality, the thickness and the type of load that has been wrapped. It is recommended therefore that you wait until the cover has cooled off and everything is tight before moving the pallet.
