Adjustments 

     

        

 

     

 

: The coating thickness can be changed by adjusting the wiper blade. 

Loosen the screws on top of the blade and then turn the two adjustment screws in front of 
the blade. Clockwise will reduce the coating and counter clockwise will increase the coating. 

These screws are a fine adjustment and need only small movements. 

 
 
 

: There is a knob which adjusts the temperature of the wax and is located 

under the front cover. If the coating is too sticky, you can turn the temperature up slightly 
which will thin out the coating.  If smoke starts appearing from the wax in the tray, then the 
temperature is too high and it should be turned down.
