Check whether the
hot wedge (15)
is aligned centrally with the
drive/pressure roller (11)
(Figure 1). If this is not
the case:
• Loosen the three countersunk screws on the cable protection plate (Figure 2) and remove the cable protection
plate.
• Loosen the two cylinder screws on the wedge plate slightly (Figure 3). The cylinder screws do not have to be
completely loosened
• Align the
hot wedge (15)
so that it is in the middle of the
drive/pressure roller at the bottom (11).
• Tighten the two cylinder screws on the wedge plate again (Figure 3).
• Reattach the cable protection plate with the three countersunk screws (Figure 2). Make sure that the cables of
the heating cartridges and the temperature probe are not pinched.
5.1. Checking the position of the hot wedge
5. Settings on COMET 700/500
Before the hot wedge is aligned with the welding machine, the device must be cooled down and the
main switch must be switched off. The power cord must have been disconnected from the power
supply.
Risk of crushing and shearing
When operating the clamping lever and clamping arm, there is a risk of injury to the hand. Always hold
the hot wedge welding machine by the handles and control units provided.
