OPERATION
1. Connect the power supply cable of the HEATSEALER 2000
Thermal Sealer to a mains socket after having checked the elec-
trical requirements reported on the label.
2. Turn on the equipment by the power switch placed on the back
side; the green and the yellow light indicators will turn on; after a
few seconds the yellow indicator will switch off and only the
green one will stay on to signal that the appliance is ready.
3. Place a sterilisation roll on the special stand. In case of model
with a roll-holder, place the rolls in the rod and put it on the sup-
ports.
4. The temperature adjustment of the sealing operation is carried
out by pushing the centre key in the control front panel.
The temperature value corresponds to a number from 1 to 8,
where (1) corresponds a temperature of 160 °C and (8) a tem-
perature of 180 °C. The normal setting value is (5).
5. Insert the envelope under the roll behind the heating element
and push it until it goes beyond the heating element and appears
on the front side.
CAUTION:
the envelope must have the transparent (polypropylene) side up.
6. Advance the envelope for all the length of the instrument to be
enveloped.
7. To seal the envelope grasp the lever and pull it forwards and
down. In this way the sealing element is lowered and presses the
envelope against the heating element.
8. On complete run of the lever the green indication will start to
flash to signal that the sealing is in progress (this phase lasts 9
and 4 seconds depending on the machine is cold and hot re-
spectively).
9. When sealing is over the yellow light switches on and an acous-
tic message is played.
10. Cut the envelope before releasing the lever. To do this push the
knob placed over the sealing element and move it firmly along
the sliding track of the cutter both rightwards and leftwards.
11. Return the lever to rest position to lift the sealing element and
free the envelope just cut.
WARNING:
the yellow indication will stay on for about 3 or 4 seconds at the end
of the sealing. This pause is necessary to avoid overheating: during
this time it is not possible to carry out another sealing.
12. In order to seal the opposite side of the envelope and so block
the instrument within its protective cover, the envelope must now
be turned and inserted under the sealing element from the front;
then carry out a new sealing.
WARNING: In order to avoid the sealing operations along the outer
margins of the heating element, place the sterilisation roll on its spe-
cial stand, so that the envelope may slide along the middle part of
the heating element.
