7.4.8 Deinstallation of two-piece nozzle tips
1. To carry out a nozzle tip exchange while the nozzle is
installed inside the mould deinstall the contour plate
(pos. 56) in cold condition. For a nozzle tip exchange
outside the mould clamp the nozzle in a vice (see Pic-
ture 42) and connect it to a controller.
2. Heat up nozzle (pos. 1) to 220 °C (428 °F).
3. Unscrew the nosepiece (pos. 1.4) from the pressure
tube (pos. 1.1) by using a ring wrench (see chapter
„5.3.1 Tools and operating materials“).
4. Grip the shaft of the nozzle tip (pos. 1.3) with a pair of
pliers and pull it out of the pressure tube with slight rota-
ry motions. Proceed carefully to avoid damage.
5. Clean nozzle tip (pos. 1.3) and nosepiece (pos. 1.4)
thoroughly by using a brass wire brush (see chapter
„5.3.1 Tools and operating materials“). If necessary use
a hot air gun. The temperature must not exceed 400 °C
(752 °F).
6. Check all surfaces for cleanliness. All contact surfaces
at the pressure tube (pos. 1.1), nozzle tip (pos. 1.3) and
nosepiece (pos. 1.4) should be metallic bright.

Maintenance
When nozzle tips of HPS III nozzles or HPS III-SXE single tips are
exchanged while the nozzle is installed in the mould a lock against
rotation (dowel pin, pos 1.10) must be installed.
