3. Disconnect the applicator head's electrical connector from the
matching supply hose connector. Loosen #6 JIC fitting on the
applicator head enough to allow molten glue to leak past the
fitting. Once the glue stops flowing and all pressure is relieved,
remove the supply hose from the head. Securely position the
output end of the supply hose over a disposal receptacle so that
it will not fall and pull the supply hose away. Do not point the
end of supply hose towards face or any other part of the body.
4. When the supply hose has reached operating temperature,
insert a pyrometer bead probe approximately 2 ft. into output
end of the supply hose. If the supply hose temperature is
verified to be in error, it should be adjusted to the desired
operating temperature as instructed in section 5.3.1. After
adjusting the temperature, allow the supply hose temperature to
stabilize before checking temperature and removing the bead
probe.
5. Switch Off the system power switch and reconnect the
applicator head to the supply hose.
Tank Temperature Check
1. Verify the system is not operating in overtemperature mode.
Refer to section 5.1.5, Overtemperature Indicator Light.
2. Check the tank temperature meter and adjust tank temperature
as explained per section 5.3.
Tank Screen Cleaning
1. Open tank lid and lift out tank screen with wire hook.
2. Remove any debris and replace.
NOTE: In high viscosity applications, the tank filter assembly
should be removed. This filter is used to prevent damage to the
pump in standard applications. (Refer to the melt unit parts list and
assembly drawing in section 9.)
