OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
GENERAL OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
While the below information will not cover every operating situation,
these guidelines should be understood and general common sense
applied when operating the equipment. Failure to do so could cause a
rehazard,explosionhazardandpossibleseriouspersonalinjuryor
death.
Intended Use:
HIX electric conveyor ovens may be used to cure or dry a number of
inks, substrates or products such as textiles, wood, plastic, glass or
any other similar substrates. The oven process temperature is to be
set within the safe temperature limitations of the ink or substrate. Re-
search of the temperature limitation of the particular ink or substrate is
solely the responsibility of the end user and not of HIX Corporation. HIX
Corporation will not be responsible for any damages to product, oven,
facilities or personnel caused by product being exposed to temperatures
exceeding their limitations or operating the oven in any manner in which
it was not intended.
Proper Venting:
Never block any of the air vents leading into or out of the control box.
Likewise never block any of the air vents located in the sheet metal
side covers along the lower frame rails. Blocking any of these vents
cancauseoverheatingoftheunitandcreatearehazard.Thetop
mounted exhaust on the oven shall be vented outside of the building.
See instructions in this manual for additional information on proper
venting of the exhaust.
Safe Operation:
Pay careful attention to the adjustable doors located on each end of the
oven. Ensure that the door on the exit end of the oven is raised higher
than that on the entrance end of the oven so there is no possibility that
product may get accumulated or lodged inside the oven chamber and
createarehazard.
Keep aerosol spray cans away from the oven. If they accidently fall on
the belt and enter the oven chamber they can overheat and explode
insidetheovenchambercausingarehazardandorpersonalinjury.
 Neverintroduceanyammableliquidintotheoventoevaporate,such
as solvents, including, but not limited to alcohol, MEK, acetone, toluene,
etc.withoutconsultingthespecicapplicationwithHIXCorporationto
determine what amount can be safely introduced into the oven without
causingadangeroussituation.Failuretodosocancausere,personal
injury or death.
