6. Install the column hitch pin (compact stand) or clamping plates (heavy
duty stand). Torque the clamping plate screws as specified in Table 9-2 on
7. Slowly lower the crane until the E-Multi injection unit is supported by the
stand, but do not remove the attachment to the crane.
8. Adjust the 3 leveling castors to raise the stand until the E-Multi injection
unit center line is aligned to the mold center line.
9. Use the stand horizontal adjustment to slowly move the E-Multi adapter
plate forward to contact the mold.
10. Fasten the adapter plate to the mold. Torque adapter plate screws to
specified torque. See “Screw Torque Specifications” on page 9-1. The
tightening of these screws will move the E-Multi injection unit and stand
slightly so that the nozzle and mold inlet are properly aligned.
11. Move the stand as far towards the injection molding machine possible.
This will ensure the largest possible clearance when moving the injection
unit away from the mold using the horizontal adjustment.
12.
Verify that the 3 leveling castor pads are in full contact with the floor.
Raise one leveling castor pad until it is not in contact with the floor. Then
slowly lower the same castor pad until it makes contact with the floor (i.e.
finger tight). Using a wrench, tighten a further 1/4 turn, but do not over-
tighten. Repeat for the other leveling castors.
