Operation

The mechanism is controlled via a pendant switch
(refer to
Figure 9
), which is suspended from a point
just above the electrical panel on the left side of the
washer-extractor. Access height has been determined
based upon an average-sized person.
The tilt mechanism is pneumatically operated. Air-
stroke actuators raise and lower the machine when the
tilt is selected. On two-way tilt mechanisms,
pneumatic pins positioned at strategic points along the
mechanism frame allow it to achieve both forward and
reverse tilt. When reverse tilt is selected, pins in the
rear of the mechanism engage and prevent the rear of
the machine from being raised. When forward tilt is
selected, pins in the front of the mechanism prevent
the front of the machine from being raised.

NOTE: When the washer-extractor/tilt mechanism
assembly is lowered, it must properly seat itself in
order to be operable. Improper seating will result
in total inoperability of the WE-6 microcomputer,
in which case it will be necessary to raise and lower
the assembly again. Further, once the assembly is
raised, it must be lowered and properly seated
before it can be raised again.
Forward Tilt Option
Washer-extractors equipped with the forward tilt
option are capable of tilting as much as 13° forward.
Upon completion of a cycle, the basket can be
unloaded as follows:
1. Open the loading door and secure it to the door
latch on the right side of the washer-extractor.
2. Turn the selector dial on the pendant switch right
to the forward tilt position. Refer to
Figure 9
.
3. While holding down the green ENABLE button,
press the black FORWARD button. Refer to
Figure 9
. The washer-extractor will slowly tilt
forward, and the basket will rotate clockwise.
4. Unload the washer-extractor.
5. To lower the washer-extractor, turn the selector
dial back to the center position. Refer to
Figure 9
.
6. Unlatch and close loading door.
