MOUNTING AND START-UP
The Tie-Matic should be secured to your work table by:
1. Installing the front stabilizer on the unit. (Figure III-1)
2. Rubber suction cup feet (optional part #16827) are available for com
plete stability on a stainless steel table or flat surface area.
3. Also for a permanent position, you can bolt the Tie-Matic to a work table
with 10-32 screws to the bottom of the unit.
4. The Tie-Matic must be set in the “HOME” position to start the twist-tying
process. To set the “HOME” position, align the orange mark on the
switch cam with the orange mark on the safety cover. (Figure III-3)
5. To start the machine, plug the machine into a power source and flip
the “ON/OFF” switch on the side of the machine.

7. Turn ON the switch located on the side.
8. Cycle the machine and remove any missed ties with caution. If necessary,
use needle-nose pliers to remove excess ties.
9. Machine is now ready to operate. If machine is loaded properly, flat side
of material will be against your product, creating a tight, secure tie. As
shown on the back of the cover label.
10. Ribbon length as required per machine:
Model Ribbon Length:
603 = 3 -11/16” long
604 = 4” long
608 = 4 -7/8” long

SECTION III: Operation
LOADING MATERIAL (MODELS 603, 604, 608)
1. Turn OFF machine before loading material.
2. Hold spool of material with label facing Right-hand palm as shown in
(Figure III-4).
3. Once the spool is placed on the spindle, the leading end of the material
will feed off the top of the spool heading toward the spool brake arm at the
rear of the machine (Figure III-5). Feed material under small roller on
brake arm, over top of roller and through no-back clip located at the rear of
the machine (Figure III-6). The flat side of material should be facing to-
ward the inside of the machine. (see label inside Tie-Matic cover)
4. Pull about 6-8” of material through the no-back clip (Figure III-7). The end
of the material will now be fed through pinion support marked with bright
orange to indicate entry.
5. Pull out idler wheel to allow material to pass into the pinion support (Figure
III-8).
6. Feed material up to cut-off area just behind cutters.

UNLOADING MATERIAL
Turn OFF the machine before unloading
material or to change spools. It is neces-
sary to depress the “no-back” before re-
moving material from machine (See Fig-
ure III-9). Material must be removed
from the rear of the machine.
(Figure III-9)
FUNCTIONAL INFORMATION FOR THE TIE-MATIC MACHINE
HOW IT WORKS:
When a product is inserted into the throat of the machine, it depresses a trigger
which trips a limit switch, starting the drive gear motor. The gear motor causes
the gear segment to operate through one revolution. This one revolution feeds
tie material, wraps it around the product, cuts material to required length and
twists ends together.
The product has now been tied and is removed by pulling toward the operator.
The Tie-Matic will repeat tying cycle ONLY after tied product is removed and an-
other product inserted into the throat.
CLEARING A JAM:
As a safety precaution, the power switch should ALWAYS be turned to the OFF
position when inspecting the mechanism for any reason, such as: unloading or
reloading twist tie material, cleaning the machine, removing material or perform-
ing adjustments.
When material jams the twist-tying cycle, you will need to depress the Release
Actuator (Appendix A, Item #185) to unlock the motor brake and remove the
jammed material (See Figure III-10).
The Tie-Matic must be set in the “HOME” position to start the twist-tying
process. To set the “HOME” position, align the orange mark on the switch cam
with the orange mark on the safety cover. (Figure III-3)
