5. Operating Instructions

Follow these steps to effectively use the Hanchen SP301 strapping tool:

1. Position the Strap: Wrap the PP band around the item to be strapped, ensuring it is snug and correctly positioned. Overlap the two ends of the strap.

3. Tension the Strap: Operate the tensioning lever repeatedly to pull the strap tight around the package. Continue until the desired tension is achieved. Ensure the package is securely bound without causing damage.
4. Apply the Seal: Once the strap is tensioned, place a metal seal (buckle) over the overlapping straps, positioning it within the tool's sealing mechanism.
5. Seal the Strap: Press the sealing lever down firmly to crimp the metal seal, securing the two ends of the PP band together.
6. Cut the Strap: After sealing, use the integrated cutting lever to cleanly cut the excess strap.
7. Remove the Tool: Release all levers and carefully remove the strapping tool from the newly secured package.
