Before Using Your Hot Melt System
It is your responsibility and obligation to
make sure your system:
Has been properly installed off the floor and
on a steady, level work surface away from
combustible materials.
Has been located in such a way that the controls
are away from the operator and that the control
panel is securely closed at all times.
Is the right capacity system for the intended use.
Is connected to the proper power supply.
(See Below).
Is only used to do what a hot melt system is
designed to do.
Is not used by anyone unable to operate
it properly.
Is used in an area where the room temperature
does not fall below 65 °F.
Is used in an area which is free from blowing air
caused by cooling fans, open doors or windows.
Basic Electrical Power Connections
For 220 VAC Operation
A fused 40 A
220
VAC electrical supply is required.
Performance problems will occur with voltages
less than 208 VAC or greater than 240 VAC.
Total amperage draw will depend on the final
system configuration; number of hoses & length,
guns, accessories, etc.
Do not allow the system to share the same circuit
with other electrical items. A dedicated supply is
recommended.
Do not use an extension cord.
If you change the configuration of your system in
any way that may affect the electrical
requirements (ex. add a gun, longer hose,
automate, etc.) call HMT Technical Service &
Support at 248-853-2011 for assistance.

Protect your hot melt equipment by installing a
GFEP (Ground Fault Equipment Protector) device
in your distribution panel.
HMT recommends that hot melt systems be
protected from unintended line-to-ground
currents by installing an appropriate ground fault
equipment protection (GFEP) device. Contact
HMT Technical Service & Support or a qualified
electrical contractor for more information. When
installing a GFEP device always comply with local
electrical codes.
