5.2 Machine Start Up
Step Action
1 Open LPG tank valve.
2 Open line valve at cylinder.
3 Choke engine then turn the ignition key to start position. Engine should start. After engine
starts, allow it to warm up before using hydraulics or generator. (Refer to the
manufacturer’s instructions for the engine)
4
Turn “POWER” toggle switch at control box “ON”. Follow directions on the control box.
5 Set heat transfer oil temperature to 500°F.
6
Set the material temperature to the manufacturer’s recommended temperature.
CAUTION
If the burner does not ignite
the first time, turn the “POWER” toggle switch to the “OFF”
position wait 30 seconds to allow un-ignited gas to disperse before trying again, then turn
the toggle switch to “ON” again; the burner should ignite. If the burner still does not ignite,
refer to
8.0.1 Symptoms: Burner will Not Ignite t o determine the malfunction.
Important: The solid material in the tank melts first around the walls, bottom, and around
the center tower of the tank. The material temperature sensor is located by the wall,
therefore, it is possible that at the beginning of the melting process the indicated
temperature reaches operating value, but the material between to the center tower and
the outside wall of the tank is still solid. This is normal, and when the heated hose is
ready for operation, most of the material in the tank will be melted and heated to the
proper application temperature.
7 Allow the heat transfer oil to continue to heat.
8 When the material reaches 275°F, engage the mixer by turning the toggle switch at the
hydraulic
control panel to “FORWARD” position. If the mixer does not move, allow the
material to heat longer.
Note: Mixer speed is preset at the factory and cannot be adjusted. The mixer cannot be
engaged until the material reaches 275°F.
CAUTION
Jamming the mixer can cause the hydraulic oil to overheat and damage the machine.
9
The hose automatically turns “ON” when the material temperature reaches 275°F.
10 Adjust the hose
temperature dial to the manufacturer’s recommended temperature.
Note: The hose reaches operating temperature in approximately 30 minutes.
