Operations Guide
Part 2
– Agitating and Monitoring Temperature
1. Never leave melter unattended when the burner is lit. If flame goes out, promptly turn off the flow of gas;
double check that the melter is free and clear of any gas odors before attempting to re-ignite the burner.
2. While your melter is ignited you should continuously be monitoring the material temperature. Check with
crack sealant manufacture for safe melting temperatures and ensure you continually adjust your regulator
to maintain the recommended temperature range. If the material becomes too hot, you may need to turn off
your burner periodically.
3.
As material begins to melt, it’s important to consistently agitate. Agitation moves the solid crack sealant
along the bottom and prevent
s ‘hot spots’ from forming which can alter the effectiveness of the sealant
after applied. Agitation also prevents chunks of over-heated material from forming which will eventually
plug or block your flow valve which can slow down the applications process.
Part 3
– Dispensing Crack Filler
Once you have effectively liquefied the crack sealant, you may begin applying it. For best results, the surface
should be clean and free of dirt, debris and vegetation. Ensure shoe is lowered and resting on the pavement.
Push melter into position, aligning the crack you wish to fill with the center of the shoe. Slowly squeeze the
valve control arm until crack filler begins to come out of the valve and onto the crack. Slowly push the melter
forward, keeping the crack aligned with the center of the shoe. Increase speed of the material flow by
squeezing harder on the valve control arm. If material flow slows, check to ensure that you have enough
melted material in the kettle and agitate to keep the flow tube clear.
Part 4
– Turning Off and Draining
Once you have finished using the melter, make sure it is fully drained and no crack filler remains inside the
kettle or the flow valve. Leaving the flow valve empty after use will prevent the valve from being blocked the
next time you use the melter.
