Section 2.1: Hot Air Heating System
Adjusting Nozzle Angle
The Nozzle angle is the angle at which the Nozzle Tip is blowing air in at the Weld
Rollers. This relationship should be parallel so that air flow is directed into the Weld Roller
Pinch Point. Having the angle of the Nozzle misaligned will cause the fabric to become
overheated leaving the seam under heated and unwelded.
Before proceeding with
adjusting the angle you must be certain that the temperature of the Nozzle is cool to the
touch. Turn the Heat Switch to the off position and wait for the machine to cool down.
Depress the Drive Foot Switch to swing Nozzle into place and check angle of the Nozzle. If
not properly placed,
(Figure2.1)
release the Drive Foot Switch to swing Nozzle out and
proceed with the following:
The angle of the Nozzle must be adjusted after the machine has cooled down to avoid
personal injury.
1.
Turn the Override Switch to the on position
which will swing the Nozzle into place so
that the angle can be adjusted.
2.
Loosen the Nozzle Clamp enough to let the
Nozzle rotate but not become
disconnected.
(Figure2.2)
3.
Rotate the Nozzle accordingly so that the
angle of the Nozzle Tip is parallel with the
Weld Rollers
4.
Tighten the Nozzle Clamp so that the
Nozzle is held securely in place forming a
tight seal around the ball end of the Nozzle
and the Dual Element Housing.
(Figure2.2)
Check to see if the proper adjustment of
the Nozzle has been made.
(Figure2.3)
Repeat steps 1 through 4 until correct.
