Tips for Successful Sealing
1. If the seal is broken or damaged, decrease the sealing time.
2. If the seal is not fully welded, increase the sealing time.
3. If the sealing material sticks to the sealing pad, decrease the congealing time.
4. If the width of the seal is not perfect or does not match the size of the element, increase the
congealing time.
5. Always keep the sealer clean. Remove any residue found on the platform and PTFE cover. Silicone
spray may be used for this purpose.
6. When replacing the heating elements, always replace the PTFE adhesive under
the heating element. A worn PTFE adhesive can cause the heating element to break. The
PTFE adhesive works as a barrier between the body of the sealer and the element. Never allow the
element to come in direct contact with the sealer body as that will damage the timer.
7. Occasionally check the condition of the silicone rubber for wear or burns. A damaged silicone
rubber will affect the quality of the seal.
8. Be sure to turn off the power or unplug the unit before replacing any parts.
