2.Slide the WEIGH BIN into position. It rests high in the frame and is inserted from the side that has the hinged access window. Install with the air cylinder toward you. If bin is already in place, remove any shipping materials, tape or string.
3.Hang the Color and Additive Feeders:
a.Lift side latches and fully extend slide assembly. Remove the hopper. Leave slide extended.
b.Raising the rear of the slide assembly, insert one corner of hanger cross bar behind frame corner post.
c.Rotate assembly into place so both ends of cross bar are behind corner posts.
d.Lower into place, bottom edge resting on frame and cross bar properly positioned behind corner posts.
e.
4.Place the controller on the support tray and plug in all cords:
a.Air solenoids into the
b.Additive and color feeders into panel front receptacles.
c.Mixer motor into right side of controller.
d.Sensor cord plug into right side of controller.
e.Load Cell plug into port on left side of controller.
5.Plug the CONTROLLER into the receptacle box located under the controller tray on GBM, 100, 200, and 400 series models; and in the mix motor relay box on 900 and 1800 series models.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT plug the controller into a separate power source. The controller ground path MUST be the same as the blender frame ground path. If your system has the controller located in a remote location, MAKE CERTAIN that the power to the controller comes from the receptacle mounted on the Blender frame.
6.Plug the power cord coming from this box into a 110 volt power source (230 volt outside U.S.). This cord MUST provide the ONLY power source for the entire system, including the controller.
See WIRING CONSIDERATIONS, next page. 1800 series blenders require a separate power source for the mix motor.
7.Connect air pressure to the unit. About 80 psi (5.5 bar) is recommended. Lubricated air is NOT recommended.
NOTE: Micro Blenders should be set to 40 psi (2.7 bar).
The Vertical Valves used in removable hoppers on Micro Blenders, and 100 and 200 series blenders, are more accurate at the lower 40 psi pressure setting.
8.Remove all protective paper from the plastic windows.
