Page 2: Initial Setup / Installation
INITIAL SETUP / INSTALLATION INSTALLATION AND SET UP INSTRUCTIONS 1. Leg Assembly A) Remove four nuts on inside of dryer frame that secures the dryer to crate bottom. B) Raise dryer from crate bottom with forklift to allow access to four corner posts.
Page 3 INITIAL SETUP / INSTALLATION 1. Both the oven and cooler crates have du- plex nails (pic 1) on all four sides which need to be removed. This allows the top to be removed at one time (either with four people or by using a fork lift). pic 1 2.
Page 4 INITIAL SETUP / INSTALLATION Red/white arrow decals should point toward each other when the con- figuration is correct (pic 5b). Similarly numbered wires connect togeth- er with the orange wire nuts (also in pack)(pic 5c). pic 1 pic 1 6. The exhaust fan assembly attaches to the top with ten #14 x ½” hex head tap screws.
Page 5 INITIAL SETUP / INSTALLATION 9. The 3626 model has two sets of legs on the exit side, both self-sup- porting once installed. The 4827 model has 3 sets of self-supporting legs. The telescope tubing (pic 9a) slides into the oven frame until it hits the metal stops (pic 9b and c).
Page 6 INITIAL SETUP / INSTALLATION 12. To install the belt, place the rolled up belt under the cooler section on the floor. The belt’s front is marked (pic 12a). Start feeding the belt through the oven by guiding it first over the idler pulley(s) at the exit side, then over the bottom rails (pic 12b, c). When arrived at the front end of the oven, loop the belt up and back through the oven, all the way back to the exit end.
Page 7 INITIAL SETUP / INSTALLATION Using needle-nose pliers and flathead screwdriver works best when weaving the link splices together (pic 13b, c and d). pic 1 pic 1 14. When hooking up the electric connection to the main rotary switch, be sure the wire connection is tight (pic 14a and b). Rotary switches fail when this connection is no longer secure.

APPLYING THE TRANSFER With some wraps including the HIX tool-less “Snap” clasp wrap, you will be able to image virtually top to bottom and handle to handle. While full top to bottom and handle to handle imaging is possible it is not recommended until you have a firm understanding and experience with imaging mugs.

USING HIX SUBLIMATION WRAPS least a ¼” away from the handle you should see consistent quality. As you become more experienced there are tips and tricks that will make full wrap imaging more successful; not fool proof but more consistent results can be achieved with proper preparation of the transfer.

Page 12 DIAGNOSTICS HEATER AND RELAY LIGHTS 1. Heater LED’s: Cycle On When Heaters Are On Small (1/8”) light-emitting diodes (LED’s) are driven by a current sensor (one for each heater in the dryer). They can, in conjunction with relay lights explained below, determine if heater(s) are burned out or if a relay is at fault.
Page 13 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.
