Section 4 - Preparation
WARNING
Ensure that you have fully read “Section 3 - Safety” before unpacking,
cleaning or assembling parts of your FUSION SERIES
®
G2 system.
The following section is a step-by-step guide to prepare your
Mold-Masters
system for use.
4.1 Tools Required
Depending on the size and complexity of your Hot Runner system, you will
require most of the tools and materials listed below.
• Allen keys: Depending on system, set of metric or imperial size keys
to use 4, 5, 6, 8, 10 and 14 mm (0.16, 0.20, 0.24, 0.31, 0.39 and
0.55 in.) on cap screws.
• Nickel based anti-seize compound: to prevent oxidation of screw
threads that could cause screws to seize with high temperatures
• Solvents (denatured alcohol): for removal of rust inhibitors
• Calibrated torque wrench: for consistent screw pressure throughout
the system
• Depth micrometer: to check bore depths
• Die spotting blue compound: for checking face contact
• Sockets
• Plastic face hammer
4.2 Screw Lengths
WARNING
Be aware of warnings placed on the assembly drawings. When the manifold
is heated the metal expands stretching the mounting screws, if screw
lengths are shortened there is a possibility of shearing.
The expansion factor is calculated into the length of each screw size.
CAUTION
The use of an incorrect size, length and grade screw could cause the screw
to shear, fatigue or stretch beyond its yield point, resulting in expensive
downtime of the Hot Runner.
CAUTION
WARNING
DO NOT SHORTEN SCREW
