MATERIAL SLIDE GATE
Refer to the chart and select the proper setting for material and
type of operation. Rotate the handle
6
on the machine front panel
clockwise to open the material slide gate
14
. Line up the edge of
the slide gate (see arrow) with desired setting on the scale
27
.
The scale is calibrated in inches of opening.
FOUR SPEED TRANSMISSION
Refer to the chart and select an appropriate gear for material and
type of operation. Shift the lever
28
into gear in accordance with
decal instructions on the machine front panel. Since the transmission
is not synchronous, it may be necessary to pull the gears through by
hand using the pulley
29
so that the gears mesh allowing you to
change them.
This should never be attempted or gears shifted
while the machine is operating.
WARNING: NEVER attempt to change gears while the Volu-Matic 500
machine is in operation. Always change gears when the machine is
completely shut down. Failure to do so can result in serious personal
injuries or a severely damaged.
AIR VOLUME CONTROL SYSTEM
Refer to the chart for correct air bleed pressure for material and type
of operation. Air flow rate may be controlled with the air bleed control
valve
15
while monitoring system pressure on the air gauge
30
.
The system back pressure must be set under load with your
Volu-Matic 500
machine operating with full length and proper size
hose while material is being blown. Always start the adjustment with
the air bleed control valve in the fully closed position. If the air flow
and pressure deliver the desired results with the valve closed, then
do nothing to the valve. As you begin to open the valve, air is bleed
off from the exit of the blower preventing flow of all air to the airlock
feeder. As you open the valve, be careful to not open completely during
open blow or the blowing hose could clog because of not enough air.
