If the Rocker On/Off Switch red indicating lamp is not on and the Rocker On/Off Switch is in the up position and the Heat Die is hot, then the lamp in the Rocker On/Off Switch is no longer operational. Return EndSealer to Novaseal for Rocker On/Off Switch replacement.
Power Light illuminates and No Heat.
Check Temperature Setting. Set temperature may be too low.
Carefully determine if the Heat Die is cold. If the Heat Die is cold to the touch, then the Heating Element may need to be replaced. Contact Novaseal for Heating Element replacement instructions or return EndSealer to Novaseal for Heating Element replacement service.
Power Light doesn’t illuminate and No Heat.
Check Rocker On/Off Switch. Try turning the machine on again.
Check Power and Power Cord integrity.
Check Fuse.
Material takes too long to heat seal.
Check Temperature Setting. Some materials require more heat or time to seal.
Heat Seal seems to discolor sealed material.
Check Temperature Setting. Try lowering temperature.
Check Seal Time. More time exposes material to more heat. Too much heat will burn or discolor the sealed material.
Check TCF material around the Heat Die. If the Teflon layer of the TCF material is worn, the Fibreglas layer will slightly discolor the sealed material. Replace the TCF material on the Heat Die. Also check the integrity of the TCF Pad. If similar condition replace TCF Pad.
Heat Sealed Material “sticks” to Heat Die.
Check Temperature Setting. Too hot may cause sticking.
Check Seal Time. Too long an exposure to the heat may cause sticking.
As the TCF material wears, the Teflon layer is no longer exists. The Teflon layer allows for easy release. Without the Teflon layer, the TCF material may appear or will seal to your heat sealed material. Replace the TCF material affixed to the Heat Die. Also check integrity of TCF Pad. Replace TCF Pad as needed.
