ALL MODELS
All operators and service personnel must read and understand this manual before operating or servi-
cing equipment.
All maintenance and service on this equipment must be performed by trained technicians.
Safe Installation & Operation
Read this manual before applying electrical power to the equipment. Equipment may be damaged by incorrect electrical
connections.
To avoid possible failure of hoses, make sure all hoses are routed to avoid kinking, tight radius turns (8" or less) and
abrasive contact. Hot-melt hoses should not have prolonged contact with heat-absorbing surfaces such as cold floors or
metal troughs. These heat-absorbing surfaces can alter adhesive flow and cause incorrect calibration. Hoses should never
be covered with materials that prevent heat dissipation, such as insulation or sheathing. Hoses should be spaced apart
from each other, not making direct contact.
Hoses and cables can present a trip hazard around the machinery. Provide hose/ cable management infrastructure
whenever possible.
Do not use adhesive that is dirty or that may be chemically contaminated. Doing so can cause system clogging and
pump damage.
When adhesive hand-held applicators or other movable applicators are used, never point them at yourself or at any
other person. Never leave a hand-held applicator's trigger unlocked when not actually in use.
Do not operate the hopper or other system components without adhesive for more than 15 minutes if the temper-
ature is 150 degrees C (300 degrees F) or more. To do so will cause charring of the residual adhesive.
Never activate the heads, hand-held applicators and/ or other application devices until the adhesive's temperature is
within the operating range. Severe damage could result to internal parts and seals.
Always install the equipment on a flat surface. Never attempt to lift or move the unit when there is molten adhesive in
the system.
Promptly wipe up fluid spills to avoid potential slips or falls.
Eye Protection & Protective Clothing
It is very important that you PROTECT YOUR EYES when
working around hot melt adhesive equipment!
Wear a face shield conforming to ANSI Z87.1 or safety
glasses with side shields which conform to ANSI Z87.1 or
EN166.
Failure to wear a face shield or safety glasses could result in
severe eye injury.
It is important to protect yourself from potential burns when working around hot melt adhesive equipment. Wear protective
gloves and long-sleeved, protective clothing to prevent burns that could result from contact with hot material or hot com-
ponents and to protect against cuts due to potential sharp edges on access panels, doors or lids.
Always wear steel-reinforced safety shoes.
