Polymer Wheel Set Purge Angle
When installed, the purge angle is factory set
to 5 degrees. If a different angle is required,
complete the following steps to adjust the
purge:
1.
Loosen the three purge adjusting
screws.
2.
Adjust purge sector to the specified
angle.
3.
Tighten the purge adjusting screws.
4.
Turn the wheel by hand clockwise
(when viewed from pulley side) to
check for interference.
Polymer Wheel Check Purge Seal
If a purge is installed, check for a slight
interference fit between the seal and the face
of the wheel by sliding a piece of paper
(“feeler gauge”) between the seal and the
media a multiple locations along the purge
seal as you rotate the wheel slowly by hand
(clockwise when viewed from the pulley
side). Verify that the media slightly grabs the
paper during rotation.
