PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND ENTIRE OPERATORS MANUAL BEFORE
PROCEEDING
WARNING: Protective clothing must be worn. Refer to ANSI Regulations:
1) Wear gloves with wristlets.
2) Wear long sleeve shirt with sleeves rolled down and cuffs buttoned.
3) Wear a face shield.
4) Load Melter from ground level.
5) Keep material door closed at all times except when adding material.
6) Never stand on any part of the machine.
7) Do not pull, twist, stretch or kink the material hose.
8) Do not operate without safety cover on hose.
9) Do not touch exhaust stacks or mufflers.
10) Wear heavy leather boots or shoes.
11) Wear long pants with no cuffs.
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 1500-112 gallons.)
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 9)
1) Access Port: The sealing wand is placed in here when not in use. This allows
operator to continue circulating material through the hose to prevent material from
cooling and freezing up.
2) Loading Door Place the material on safety door to load the melting tank.
3) Oil Temperature Gauge: Monitors the heat transfer oil temperature.
4) Material Temperature Gauge: Monitors the heat of the material in the tank.
5) Pressure Valve: This valve controls the flow rate of the material being pumped to
the hose and sealing wand by changing the pressure setting. (Turning the valve
clockwise will increase the pressure which in turn will increase the flow). During
sealing operations, this valve alone can be used to regulate flow.
6) Agitation Drive Control Switch: Flip this toggle switch to the forward-off-reverse
fuction.
7) Pressure Gauge: This gauge measures the pressure required to turn the agitator.
By observing this gauge, the operator can tell if the agitator is rotating.
8) Pump Drive Control Switch: Flip this toggle switch to the forward-off-reverse
fuction.
9) Temperature Control Box: This control allows the operator to set the desired oil
and material temperatures. The setting will be maintained automatically.
10) Wand Holder: On models with the electrically heated hose, the wand is placed into
this holder..
11) PSI Gauge: This gauge will tell you the amount of pressure in the hydraulic system.
12) Ignition: This will allow you to start the engine. (This must be turned on to allow
the machine to start.

Operating Sequence
NOTE: This step by step procedure is only an outline. Refer to the page(s) indi-
cated for complete instructions.
PROCEDURE: PAGE
1) Place wand in return port . 6
2) Switch pump and agitator toggle switch to the forward position.
10
3) Start engine per engine operating instructions. 9
4) Add material, typically 2-3 biscuits if tank is empty. 12
5) Adjust flow to sealing wand.
12
6) Remove Wand and start sealing. 12
Once the oil temperature reaches 325deg F, the agitator will start rotating.
Once the Material temperature reaches 350 Deg F, the material pump will start.
At the end of the Day
1) Return Wand to Access Port and pin trigger 6
2) Switch the material toggle switch to the reverse operation and allow to run 2 min. 12
3) Turn engine off and remove key. 12
4) Lock hose boom in tow position.
5) Always secure sealing wand, sealing hose and hose boom
before towing the Melter.
NOTE: When leaving reheatable material in tank, allow the agitator to run until the
oil and material temperatures are the same.

Starting the Engine
Starting the Engine
NOTE: Read the engine instruction manual before starting.
Engine RPM is factory set and fixed at 3000 RPM.
Diesel Engine:
Your Isuzu Diesel Powered Melter is equipped with an electronic shutdown system . If the
system detects excessive water temperature, low alternator output, or low oil pressure, the
engine will automatically shut down. The indicator light that remains on indicates the mal-
function. An integral digital hourmeter records engine run time,
The engine must be running before igniting the burner. The burner will only operate if the
ignition key is turned on. DO NOT turn on burner without engine running.

Automatic Temperature Control Setting
NOTE: On diesel units, the engine must be running before activating temperature
control. The automatic temperature control system monitors the heat trans-
fer oil temperature and material temperature.
1) Set the oil controller (A) to 550º F(288º C) (See Setting Temperature Controllers, pg.
17)
2) Set the material controller (B) to the recommended material working temperature
which is typically listed on the material container.
3) Turn switch (H) on to activate the heated hose.
4) Set the heated hose controller (C) to350º. Light (J) will be on when the controller is
calling the generator to activate.
5) Turn rocker switchs (D) and (K) to the forward position.

BEFORE OPERATING
When lights (G) and (F)
are on, the burner has
been activated.
Light (E) will only be on
when the material tem-
perature is above 350º.
(this signals the material
pump to come on.
Light (I) will only be on
when the oil temperature
is above 325º. (this sig-
nals the agitator to come
on).
