7. Operation (cont.)
7.7 Insert cap assembly. Affix the cap assembly into the
slide plate assembly. Press down and twist firmly
counter-clockwise to lock in place. Make sure the red
indicator lines (this line can also be black) are aligned
for properly seating the cartridge. You may need to
adjust the height of the cylinder by pressing the stroke
up button. This allows you to seat the cartridge pusher
either below or above the roller valve (toggle) limit
switch (depending on the size of the cartridge).
Check the roller valve (toggle) limit switch on top of the
machine to make sure it’s not depressed or jammed in
any way.
7.8 Read the bag of the Semkit® package and identify how
many strokes are required (this will be referenced
under ‘Hand-mix’ but this process is acceptable for
mixing on the Semkit®1088CE mixer). Set the double-
stroke preset counter.
7.9 Presetting Counter. Hold the white button down on the
counter to change the stroke count. On cycle counter
select desired number of up/down strokes. Lower
display is for preset number.
If the machine door is opened during operation or if the
stop button is pressed, the stroke count will return to zero.
The machine will not restart from where it was interrupted.
7.10 Before starting each mixing cycle, make sure the
cartridge is clamped into the cartridge holder and the
dasher rod is inserted to the drive pins.
7.11 Close safety door.
7.12 Never start the mixing operation without a cartridge
properly seated on the driving pins.
7.13 Start by pressing “Start” push button (colored black) to
begin operation.
7.14 Mixing will perform entire sequence without operator’s
intervention. Wait until machine switches off
automatically.

7.15 Operation Complete
7.16 Removing Cartridge. Simply follow steps 7.1 & 7.2
When pressing the emergency stop or opening the door
