5. Functional description
5.1. Mode of operation
The specially treated flock fibers are electrically charged at the electrode by the
high voltage of the MINI Flocker Evo.
This causes the flock fibers to jump from the unit along the electrostatic field lines
to any grounded surface. As soon as the fibers penetrate the conductive adhesive
layer, they are discharged and remain aligned in the adhesive.
The effect of the electrostatic field depends on the field strength. This results from
the voltage applied in the device and the distance between the applicator and the
flocked part.
5.2. Installation
•Open the battery lock [5] and insert the 3.7 V Li-Ion battery from the SCHNIER
Power Series with the plus pole (+) facing down. Close the quick-change flap [6]
tightly again. A different battery may only be used at your own risk!
•Place the applicator in the lower end of the MINI Flocker Evo and screw it on hand-
tight.
•Fill with the desired flock fibers and place the appropriate sieve.
•Connect the ground wire to the workpiece with the ground connection [2].
•Switch on the high voltage with the On/Off button [1].
•When the high voltage is switched on, LED [4] lights up.
•After switching on, the LED for the battery display [3] lights up briefly and then go-
es out again. If the battery is weak, it lights up permanently and the battery should
be recharged.
Now apply the adhesive to the surface to be flocked and fix the ground cable with the
clamp to a counter pole (nail, screw, ...) which is in the adhesive. The optimal layer thick-
ness of the adhesive (dried) is 1/10 of the length of the flock fibers.
Now move the MINI Flocker Evo with a light shaking motion over the areas coated with
glue while pressing the On/Off button. The LED at the end of the handle signals operation,
or whether voltage is present.
After the adhesive has dried, the excess fibers can simply be vacuumed off.
