WARNING: Protective clothing must be worn. Refer to ANSI Regulations:
1) Weargloveswithwristlets.
2) Wearlongsleeveshirtwithsleevesrolleddownandcuffsbuttoned.
3) Wear a face shield.
4) LoadMelterfromgroundlevel.
5) Keepmaterialdoor closed at alltimes except whenadding material.
6) Neverstandonanypartofthemachine.

8) Donotoperatewithoutsafetycoveronhose.
9) Donottouchexhauststacksormufflers.
10) Wearheavyleatherbootsorshoes.
11) Wearlongpantswithnocuffs.
WARNING: Do not over fill the melting tank. For best results, add only as much
material as required for the job or a maximum of 75% of tank capacity.
(Model 110 - 78 gallons, Model 230 - 168 gallons & Model 410 - 308 gal-
lons).
WARNING: On a new Melter applicator or a unit that has been idle for some time,
slowly raise the oil temperature to 250º F and hold there for approxi-
mately 20 to 30 minutes. This will help get rid of any condensation that
may be in the oil chamber.
WARNING: Never leave machine unattended while it is running.

Controls and Their Functions
NOTE: This general outline will only familiarize you with the machine. Read through
the entire manual before putting this machine into operation. (Refer to Dia-
gram 1 on page 11)
1) Tank Outlet Valve: Allowsmeltedmaterial fromthetank to flowintothe pumping
system.
2) Access Port: The sealingwand isplaced in herewhen notin use. This allowsopera-
tortocontinuecirculatingmaterialthroughthehosetopreventmaterialfromcoolingand
freezingup.
3) Loading Door (2 on Model 230 & 410): Place the material on safety door to load the
meltingtank.
4) OilTemperature Gauge: Monitorstheheattransferoiltemperature.
5) Material Temperature Gauge (optional): This gauge showsthetemperature of
materialinsidethemeltingtank. Thisgaugeisfor referencebeforepumpingstarts.
Oncepumpingbegins,gauge(6)willbe an exactreadingofmaterialpassingthrough

7) Pressure Valve: This valvecontrolsthe flowrateof thematerialbeingpumped tothe
hoseandsealingwandbychangingthepressuresetting. (Turningthevalveclockwise
willincreasethepressurewhichinturnwillincreasetheflow). Duringsealingopera-
tions,thisvalvealonecanbeusedtoregulateflow.
8) Sealing Hose Valve: Openingthis valvewill allowthe materialbeing pumpedto flow
throughthehoseandsealingwand. Thevalveshouldbeinthefull"on"positionduring
operationtopreventflowrestriction.
