Disassembling the Nozzle Tip
1) Remove the circlip (5) from the nozzle tip (6).
Doc006490.png
2) Remove the component ring version 02(4)
Doc006489.png
Hot Surfaces Hazard
Following works must be carried out by qualied persons.
Use personal protective equipment, such as gloves, apron, sleeves
and face protection, to guard against burns
Contact between the skin and the hot nozzle could result in burns.
NOTICE
To dismount the nozzle tip from the nozzle, if there is plastic
material in the nozzle, the tip must be heated-up.
Never use an acetylene or welding torch, as severe nozzle
damage can occur from over-heating.
3) Heat the nozzle tip (2) using a heat gun to the maximum temperature of
200 °C (392 °F).
Hot Surfaces Hazard
The nozzle is still hot.
NOTICE
Unscrewing the nozzle tip may cause the nozzle to start
rotating together with the nozzle tip, which could result in
leakage at the base of the nozzle.
4) Hold the nozzle body (1) rmly using an engineer’s wrench at the
hexagonal shape.
5) Unscrew the nozzle tip (6) from the nozzle body (1) using an
engineer’s wrench. Doc006494.png

Assembling the Nozzle Body
1) Apply spotting ink on the nozzle body (1) bottom surface (SF1).
2) Screw in the nozzle body (1) hand-tight into the manifold thread until
seated.
3) Unscrew the nozzle body (1) from the manifold.
Doc003049.png
4) Check the matching between the manifold bottom surfaces (SF2) and
the nozzle body (1) surface (SF1).
NOTICE
The manifold must bear on all surfaces uniformly and flatly, in
particular on the nozzle head contact face.
In case of any uncertainty, clean the surfaces with a cleaning
cloth. If the next ink test is still unsatisfactory, please - contact
Synventive Customer Service or Technical Support.
5) With a positive ink test clean the surfaces and proceed to the next step. Doc003050.png
6) Lubricate the thread (not the face) of the nozzle body with high-
temperature assembly paste (antiseize compound).
NOTICE
This is an important measure to prevent thread corrosion due
to aggressive gases, which could be released during plastics
processing.
Doc003044.png
7) Tighten nozzle body to manifold.
NOTICE
Use torque wrench with wrench insert and the torque
specified in the respective table in section 13.
