When The Fabric Adhesive Force Is Weakened [Belt]
If the fabric adhesive force is weakened, you need to apply adhesive again. With this device, adhe-
sive was applied at the time of shipment, however, it is necessary to apply adhesive again if the
adhesive force is degraded by ink, lint, or dust.
• Peeling off old adhesive
(Peeling off adhesive whose adhesive force is degraded by ink, lint, or dust)
• Applying new adhesive (Applying adhesive again)
• Rough standard of re-applying
Apply adhesive if a rise occurs in the printed fabric when it comes out from
the front cover.
• In case the indication period of applying an adhesive has set before
printing, you can print without worrying about maintenance period. (Refer
to Page 4-12 [Setting the indication period for maintenance])
• Our company genuine adhesive is solvent type. Be sure to wear the
protection mask for organic solvent and the supplied goggle and gloves.
• Be sure to set up the appropriate air moving system in case of applying
adhesive in the closed room or a room with bad ventilation.
• In case using adhesive, comply strictly with the Ordinance on the
Prevention of Organic Solvent Poisoning.
Applying adhesive under the supervision from a director who has a
license for Organic solvent poisoning or the person who had com-
pleted the technical qualification program as a supervisor for Or-
ganic solvent poisoning.
• If a rise or slack occurs when the fabric is attached to the belt (through the
pressure roller) because the fabric was loose before operation, adhesive is
not the cause of rise or slack. In this case, the fabric cannot be used.
Peeling off weakened adhesive
The following are used to peel off adhesive:
Prepared Arranged by a Customer
Doctor Kerosene or diesel (about 500cc)
Gloves Ethanol (about 200cc)

• Kerosene or diesel and ethanol become easier to be handled if they are
put in a container with a small mouth.
