Machine-Side Loaders

Quick Start Guide

Turning on the loader:

Locate the power switch on the left side of the control box and move to the ‘ON’ position.

Setting the loader convey time:

It is only possible to set the convey time when the unit is not conveying material

1.Disconnect the flapper valve switch from the control box, by unscrewing the plastic retainer ring, and pulling the plug straight down.

2.Adjust the conveying time by pressing the up arrow button (the center LED on the display lights up). Convey time can be adjusted from 1 to 99 seconds, incrementally.

3.Make note of the conveying level and adjust time accordingly .

Please Note: The material level inside the loader should never exceed the material inlet.

Setting the line clearing time or purge time:

It is only possible to set the purge time when the unit is not conveying material

1.Press and hold the “change-over” key, (bottom LED on the display lights up)

2.While holding the change-over key, adjust the purge time by pressing the up arrow. Purge time can be adjusted from 0 to 99 seconds.

If no line clearing valve has been installed, be sure to set purging time to 0.

Make note of the purge time and adjust for optimum efficiency

Connecting the proportioning valve:

Control and power of the proportioning valve is supplied through a 4-wire control connection.

3.Remove the control box face, and locate the removable plug in the bottom of the box.

4.Remove the plug and feed the wire of the proportioning valve through the empty hole.

5.Tighten the lock nut inside, position the wire length for optimum use and tighten the lock nut on the outside.

6.Strip the wires so that 1/4” of wire is showing, for connection to terminal blocks.

7.Remove the loader control face.

Upon removal of the loader control face you will see two printed circuit boards. One board on the reverse of the control face, and the other mounted inside the control box. The ground wire will connect to the terminal block X3 on the back of the control face. The other three wires connect to terminal block X7 inside the control box, in order from left to right Brown, Blue, then Black. Please refer to the schematic in the back of the manual.

Connecting Material Lines:

Component 1 – connected to the intake port furthest from the air cylinder (regrind)

Component 2 – connected to the intake port closest to the air cylinder (virgin)

Setting the ratio:

When the loader motor is not running, pressing the up arrow key will change the percentage of component 1. This can be set from 0% to 99%

Set the cycle switching:

Press and hold the percentage key. Then by pressing the up arrow, you will be selecting the cycle time period in increments of 5 seconds.

Therefore, if the convey time is 60 seconds and you select a cycle time period of 10 seconds the valve will switch a total of 6 times.
