Maintenance
The case sealer been designed for long, trouble free
service. The machine will perform best when it
receives routine maintenance and cleaning. Machine
components that fail or wear excessively should be
promptly repaired or replaced to prevent damage to
other portions of the machine or to the product.

Cleaning
Note – Never attempt to remove dirt by blowing
it out with compressed air. This can cause the
dirt to be blown inside the motor and onto
sliding surfaces which may cause premature
equipment wear. Never wash down this
equipment. Serious equipment damage could
result.
Regular slotted containers produce a great deal of
dust and paper chips when processed or handled in
equipment. If this dust is allowed to build-up on
machine components, it can cause component
wear and overheating of drive motor. The dust
build-up can best be removed from the machine by
Note – Wipe off excess oil and grease. It will
attract dust and dirt which can cause premature
equipment wear and jamming. Take care that
oil and grease are not left on the surface of
rollers around which tape is threaded, as it can
contaminate the tape's adhesive.
a shop vacuum. Depending on the number and
type of boxes sealed in the case sealer, this
cleaning should be done approximately once per
month. If the boxes sealed are dirty, or if the
environment in which the machine operates is
dusty, cleaning on a more frequent basis may be
necessary. Excessive dirt build-up that cannot be
removed by vacuuming should be wiped off with a
damp cloth.
Lubrication
Most of the machine bearings, including the drive
motor, are permanently lubricated and sealed and
do not require additional lubricant.
Figure 4-1 illustrates the areas of the case sealer
that require lubrication. Lubricate points indicated
