Conair CTS 7, CTS 9, CTS 5 manual Installing the Encoder

CAUTION: Handle with care.

The encoder is a delicate piece of equipment and must be handled gently.

Conair uses bi-directional encoders to ensure that only product that moves forward is counted.

Installing the encoder consists of sever- al parts:

●the encoder

●the measuring wheel

●the connecting cable

The encoder is fitted with a 1 foot cir-

cumference wheel which rides on

either the upper belt of the belt puller or (for Encoder rigid profiles and pipe) on the extrudate itself upstream of the puller.

The encoder is supplied with an integral mounting bracket. How and where you attach the encoder to the puller depends on your particular puller and application.

●If the wheel rides on the puller belt, make sure that its lin- ear alignment is the same as the belt. Place the wheel near the center of the belt to minimize bouncing. Try to avoid cracks and other belt features that may affect accuracy.

●Make sure the location allows you to keep the wheel clean. Any small buildup on the wheel will affect its cir- cumference and change the cut length.

After the encoder is installed, attach it to the saw control using the supplied cable. The cable has been hard-wired to the con- trol at the factory.
