OPERATION MODE
FIG. 6: Operation Mode
1.
Place the suction cup installed on the pick-up pen over the component and
apply a light force so there is no gap between the surface of the suction cup
and surface of the component.
2.
Press and hold down the foot pedal to start the machine generating a vacuum
pressure.
3.
Use the vacuum control knob to increase the vacuum pressure by slowly
turning it counterclockwise to a suitable level where there is enough force to
securely seal the suction cup to the component. See FIG. 6.
This step is only required when initially setting up the machine.
Excessive vacuum pressure may cause damage to small delicate
components. Always use minimum allowable vacuum pressure.
3.
The component can now be picked up and safely positioned in the desired
location.
4.
Release the foot pedal to immediately stop the machine generating a vacuum
pressure, and then remove the suction cup safely away from the component.
