Facer
The facer is of the McElroy rotating planer-block design. The blade
holders each contain two cutter blades. The block rotates on ball
bearings and is chain driven (enclosed in lubricant) by a hydraulic
motor. The facer weighs approximately 40 pounds and is pivoted
on a shaft attached to the two movable jaws. The facer has a
release mechanism on the pivot side for quick and easy removal
from the machine.
NOTICE: Never extend the blade beyond the inner or outer
circumference of the facer.

Heater
Heater is not explosion proof. Operation of heater
in an explosive atmosphere without necessary safety
precautions will result in serious injury or death.
If operating in an explosive atmosphere, heater should be brought up
to temperature in a safe environment, then unplugged before entering
the explosive atmosphere for fusion.
The heater temperature is controlled by a microprocessor. The heater
has a green indicator light which will flash on and off. This indicates
that the controller is operating normally. It has a red indicator light.
When the heater is plugged in and preheating the red light glows
steadily until the set temperature is reached. The red light then goes
off and on as the heater maintains temperature.
The heater body is not coated. Coated butt fusion heater plates are
available for all butt fusion applications.
NOTICE: The heater should never be used without butt fusion heater
plates installed.
To prevent a build-up of plastic pipe residue from accumulating on
the heater plates (loss of surface temperature and pipe sticking may
result), the heater plates should be cleaned with a non-synthetic cloth
before every fusion joint.
