The machine is switched on and the required temperature set. When the temperature is reached, the film mounted at the back of the machine on two support rollers is pulled over the tray to be sealed (placed in the die plate). The sealing head is then lowered by hand and pressed down to seal the film to the tray, simultaneously cutting the film from the roll. The sealing head is then raised, and the tray removed.
