Platen Maintenance
If the platen does not come out of the pail easily when
the pump is being raised, the blow off tube or check valve
may be plugged. A plugged valve prevents air from
reaching the underside of the plate to assist in raising it
from the pail.
1. Lower the platen completely.
2. Turn the main power switch (MP) OFF.
3. Disassemble the electric cable from the receptacle of
the platen.
4. Perform the
and follow the Pressure Relief Procedure in your
pump manual.

valve.
6. Loosen the set screw (Z), see F

from the pump.

of the valve and reassemble.

the bleed stick through the bleed relieve port (G) to
remove material residue. See F

a. Remove the platen cover fasteners and nuts (V).
11. Disconnect the heater block (X) from the platen.
Remove the screws (W) from the upper heater plate
(X). Remove the upper heater plate.
12. Remove any excess fluid. Use a soft wire brush on
the heater (Y). See F
