INSTALLATION
The Venturi loader can be installed directly on the plastic material hopper. CAUTION: Be sure to fasten
the loader in place as they are top heavy when conveying material plus the extra weight of the vacuum
hose. Connect the venturi poly tubing 10mm x 13' to the suction probe. Then connect the other side to
the “OUT” side of the control box. Expose 1” of the grounding wire on the 1-1/4” I.D. material hose on
each end. Fasten one end to the suction probe and the other end to the inlet of the venturi body with the
clamps that were included.
Failure to connect the ground wire can cause excessive static buildup
and can result in possible static shock to personnel or damage the unit control circuit board.
Connect a 10mm tube air supply to the “IN” side of the control box. The air regulator is preset at the
factory. To reset the air pressure you must lift the pressure control knob reset the pressure and lock the
knob by pushing it down until it clicks. DO NOT reset air pressure with power on!! For dual feed model
follow procedures as listed above except you have 2 hoses and suction probes plus 2 control boxes.
One control box is the master (No. 1 supplies power) and the second is the slave (No. 2). Plug the slave
box into the master to energize the slave box. Both control boxes have power switches so the slave box
(regrind) can be shut down if necessary.
