4.4 Advices for the setting-up operation
WARNING
Start with set-up operation not until
•
the functioning of the unit is known, and
•
the unit installation for setting-up operation has been done according to
the details given in the previous chapter. That means all unit components
are operable.
Read the documentation thoroughly to avoid breakdowns caused by faulty
handling.
We recommend asking for an ITW Dynatec-service technician for the
setting-up operation, to ensure a functioning unit. Let yourself and the
people working with or working on the unit be introduced to the unit on this
occasion.
ITW Dynatec takes no responsibility for damages or faults caused by any
untrained personal.
Allow only skilled expert staff to do the setting-up operation!
Always wear safety shoes, heat-resistant protective gloves, safety goggles
and protective clothing when working on or with the unit. Risk of burns and
risk of injury!
Risk of electric shocks! Risk of injury, Mortal danger!
The unit components are getting very hot during operation! Risk of burns!
The adhesive is very hot and pressurized! Risk of burns and risk of injury!
At working temperature, molten adhesive could cause heavy burns. Let
spilled out adhesive cool down first, before removing it!
CAUTION
During operating the unit, heed the following:
•
Heed all safety instructions mentioned in chapter 2.
•
Install an appropriate protection device to avoid unintended contact with
heated parts and with spilling out hot adhesive. The protection device has
to prevent also the operator against not reaching into the adhesive
application and against injuring.

Set the working temperatures strictly within the temperature range given
by the adhesive manufacturer. Do not exceed this temperature range.
•
Switch the unit off during longer production breaks.
