Wall Extruder (Frame Nailer Gen IV and Tables)
11.1.5
Clamp Sensors
Figure 20, Clamp Sensor locations
Check plate sensors and plate clamp sensors (see Figure 20) are free and clear of any build-up of
dust and securely fastened; sensor malfunctions will prevent the guns from firing.
Note that as the vertical stud clamp sensors are located within the clamp cylinders, they do not
require regular cleaning or maintenance.
11.1.6
Clean Wall Extruder of any build up
Keep the Wall Extruder free of any build-up of debris. Moving parts should not be obstructed, and
the Wall Extruder should be usable without any hindrance. Remove and replace components as
required to clean out any built-up debris or dust; ensure that any components removed are then
replaced correctly.
Ensure there are no bent or jammed nails blocking the nail guns, and that there are no bent or
jammed nails in the nail feeds.
11.1.7
Noises or vibrations
Take note of any unusual noises or vibrations. Do not operate the Wall Extruder if the cause of any
vibrations or unusual noises cannot be found.
11.1.8
Emergency Stop Buttons
Check emergency stops are working and that they stop the machine when activated. This test should
be performed before using the machine, at least once a day.
Check operational controls are working, and that they function as designed. Inspect these other
controls at regular intervals.
