OPERATOR MUST READ AND UNDERSTAND ENTIRE OPERATORS
MANUAL BEFORE PROCEEDING. THIS PAGE ONLY PROVIDES AN
OVERVIEW OF SAFETY INFORMATION
Personal Safety
The melter operates at elevated temperature which can cause burns. Operator and
anyone working in close proximity to hot materials must always wear protective clothing.
Required clothing includes :
Gloves with wristlets • Heavy leather boots or shoes • Face Shield
• Long sleeve shirt with sleeves rolled down and cuffs buttoned.
• Long pants with no cuffs.
General Operation Safety
Perform a DOT Pre-Trip inspection before towing
Load Melter from ground level (never climb on unit to load).
Keep material door closed at all times except when adding material.
Never stand on any part of the machine.
Do not operate without safety cover on hose.
Do not touch exhaust stacks or mufflers
Never touch material expelled by melter while still hot.
Never leave machine unattended while it is running.
Always use pin with swivel jack.
Never use a damaged swivel jack
Never go under trailer with out first stabilizing trailer.
WARNING

Trailer Safety
Operating this machine requires workers to perform work behind the trailer, it is critical to perform
the work safely. Communication between the tow vehicle driver and worker is critical. Worker and
tow vehicle driver shall must stay in communication, use an audible device or visual signals to
communicate. A worker must never ride on the trailer or position him or herself between the tow
vehicle and trailer when the tow vehicle is running. Tow vehicle driver must always be aware of
workers position.
Only use a tow vehicle that is equipped with an electronic brake control system and has the
appropriate towing capacity. The best means for determining the vehicle's towing capacity is to
read the vehicle owner's manual. The owner's manual will provide detailed instructions and
limitations, usually accompanied by tips for safe towing. If the owner's manual has been
misplaced, most manufacturers provide free downloadable copies on their website. Towing with an
undersized tow vehicle can cause the trailer to tow improperly, potentially causing loss of control.
Overloading can also cause unintended failures to tow vehicle.
The weight of your trailer listed in this manual is for the base model without any additional
accessories or the weight of the sealant. The weight of your trailer will vary, weigh your machine to
determining your Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW). Scales are sometimes available to use at state
highway weigh stations, refuse transfer stations and commercial truck stops.
Trailer Stabilizing Procedure
Going under the trailer puts a person at risk of severe injury or
death. Follow procedure below to stabilize trailer before going under the trailer
Method #1 Hitch to Vehicle.
Park both the tow vehicle and trailer on a flat level surface. Place tow vehicle in park and remove
keys.
Method #2 Unhitched.
Park trailer on a level surface. Place wheel blocks in front of and behind wheels on both sides of
the trailer. Inspect your swivel jack thoroughly for damage or abnormal wear, especially if it was
subjected to abnormal load or shock. [If damaged do not use, replace swivel jack.] Turn the swivel
jack to the vertical position and pin in place. Use the swivel jack to decouple trailer from tow
vehicle. After raising the hitch coupler, crib, block, or otherwise secure the trailer at once.

NOTE: This general outline will only familiarize you with the machine. Read through the
entire manual before putting this machine into operation.
1) Control Panel: The main control panel is used to control the direction of the material
pump and agitator, and you can also monitor the temperature of the material and heat
transfer oil.
2) Boom Rotation Lock: Handle locks the booms rotation.
3) Loading Door: Place the material on safety door to load the melting tank.
4) Oil Level Dipstick: Allows you to monitor the amount of Heat Transfer Oil in the tank.
5) Oil Temperature Gauge: Displays the heat transfer oil temperature.
6) Aggregate Hopper: Hopper for aggregate that will be mixed to create mastic.
7) Ignition Switch: Engine on and off.
8) Sealing Wand: Dispenses sealant
9) Sealant Flow Control: Control the flow rate of sealant.
10) C1 Mastic Control Panel: Controls for applying mastic
11) Mastic Flow Control: Controls the amount of aggregate that mixes into mastic.
12) Access Port: The sealing wand is placed in here when not in use. This allows operator
to continue circulating sealant through the hose to prevent the wand tip from cooling and
freezing up.
13) Mastic Chute: Mastic is dispensed from the chute, chute angle can be adjusted.
14) Mastic Gate: Controls the mastic to flow or stop.

Control Panels
Mastic Control Panel
Mastic: Mastic will be dispensed through
the mastic gate when opened.
Mixing Chamber Cleanout: When gate is
opened, any remaining mastic in the
chamber will be cleared out without
introducing new material .
Rock Only: Only rock will enter and exit
mastic mixing chamber when gate is opened.
Rock Burner ON/OFF: Allows pre-
programmed controller to Activate\Deactivate
the rock heat chamber.
Inside Mastic Control Panel is the
temperature control module. Contact
CIMLINE Technical support before changing
any settings.
Main Control Panel
The main control panel is used to operate the
melter control system. Controls located on
the cover are for operating in auto mode only.
OFF: Shuts down Agitator, Burner, Hose,
and Pump
RUN: Allows the preprogrammed
controllers to turn on the Pump, Agitator,
Burner, and heated hose

NOTE: CIMLINE recommends using the Main Control Panel in Auto
Control mode . Manual mode is provided mainly for trouble
shooting
1) Auto/Off/Manual Switch
Auto mode, Machine will operate from the systems preconfigured program using the
controls located on the front cover.
Off, (center position) All systems will be off and machine will stop.
Manual, Main switch on front cover is no longer active. The four switches below must
be used to control the melter’s operations.
2) Controller On/Off Switch: When this switch is on, the three controllers to the right will
be energized and they will be controlling the Diesel burner and the heated hose generator.
3) Material Pump Seal/Off/Clean-out Switch: When this switch is on “ Seal” , the pump will
be rotating and material will recirculate back to tank, when wand switch is activated, material
will dispense out the hose. When the switch is “Off”, the pump will not be rotating. When the
switch is on “Clean-out”, the pump will be rotating in the reverse directing and will be drawing
back any material in the plumbing or the hose.
4) Agitator CCW/OFF/CW Switch: This switch controls the rotation of the agitator from
counter-clockwise or Clockwise. If the switch is in the center position, the agitator will not
rotate.
5) Low Flow Switch: Some sealants dispense best at low flow rates (<4), if they dispense
unevenly, switch the Auto/Manual switch to Manual and place the Low flow switch to the “For
material flow Lower than 4”. This will make the material pump only rotate when the wand
trigger is pressed, resulting in more consistent dispensing.
6) Pump LED (Green): This LED indicates that the material has reached the preset
temperature and if the unit is running in the Auto mode, the Material pump will be pumping.
7) Agitator LED (Green): This LED indicates that the Heat Transfer Oil has reached the
preset temperature and if the unit is running in the Auto mode, the Agitator will be turning.
8) Heated Hose LED (Green): This LED indicates that the Heated Hose has reached the
preset temperature and is ready to use.
9) Diesel Burner LED (Yellow): This LED indicates that the Diesel Burner is on.
10) Heated Hose Fuse: This Slow-blow fuse is protecting the Heated Hose.
11) Heated Hose Generator LED (Yellow): This LED indicates that the Heated Hose
Generator is on.
12) Sealant Temperature Controller The control system on your CIMLINE C1 melter has
been factory set to run the most common types of materials. See page 17 to override
settings.
