10.10 Chamber door lock
The chamber door lock is to be used at all times that the operator may wish to enter the
chamber in order to change the cutter knives for example. The lock is located in the
front right hand side panel of the machine. See below for the safety decal and location
of the chamber door lock valve. The lock works by way of a hydraulic on/off valve, while
locked the valve is in the “off” (vertical) position and the hydraulic rams will remain
locked open, securing the door in a fixed position.
10.11 Spare film holders & door latch safety
The McHale Fusion 3 can hold up to 10 rolls of spare film along with 1 more in each
of the two dispensers. The spare rolls are stored at each side of the machine, behind
the front panels. To open the primary latch (No. 1) on the door panels, a 13 mm
spanner or flat blade screwdriver will be required. The secondary latch (No. 2) is
opened by pushing it inwards to release the panel. (See Figure 10.k)
To store film rolls carefully, pull down film holders and slide the film roll core onto the
film holder. Each holder stores two rolls of film each. Push the film rolls back into an
upright position.
