Fi Series: The heating element doesnft heat up even when the operator steps on the pedal. Is it broken?
A17 . Customers who have newly purchased a Fi-series foot-operated sealer often asks if the machine is broken because the heating element does not heat up and the material cannot be sealed even when the operator steps on the pedal. In most cases, this is caused by the pedal not being pressed down sufficiently. Please step on the pedal further down until you hear the clicking sound that indicates the microswitch kicks in and you see the heating indicator light turns on. Caution: Stepping too hard on the pedal, however, could cause the damage to parts such as the micro-switch. Be careful not to step on the pedal too much so that the height of the pressure rubber as shown below is compressed to 22mm or less.
