CARE MUST BE TAKEN WHEN MOVING THE PRESS SO AS NOT TO DROP OR OTHERWISE CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE MACHINE. WARNING DO NOT MAKE ANY ELECTRICAL CONNECTION TO THE MACHINE UNTIL IT IS UNBLOCKED. Unblocking the press Step 1: Remove the two jack bolts holding the heads closed. Step 2: Attach both head opening springs after the heads open. Step 3: Remove all other shipping blocks, materials, etc. WARNING STAY CLEAR OF MOVING MECHANISMS WHEN REMOVING JACK BOLTS. -6- INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Setting and anchoring CAUTION IF THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE NOT FOLLOWED, DAMAGE TO SHIRTS OR THE MACHINE COULD RESULT. FORENTA IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO SHIRTS OR MACHINES RESULTING FROM IMPROPER INSTALLATION. CONTACT THE FORENTA SERVICE DEPARTMENT FOR FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS, IF NEEDED: PHONE NUMBER (423)586-5370. The machine should be anchored to the floor using the four holes located at the base of the machine. The machine should be installed in a level position, leveling from left to right and front to rear. See drawing below. Step 1: The machine should sit on a flat, level surface, preferably concrete. Step 2: Install anchors (not supplied). Step 3: Place torpedo levels as shown to begin the machine leveling process. Step 4: Rotate the buck carriage by hand to place levels as shown. Step 5: Place shims under the machine legs as required to level the machine as shown in step 3. Step 6: Tighten anchors. Step 7: Check torpedo levels. Return to Step 5 if necessary to obtain level readings. -7- INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Collar clamp/ head alignment check Check the collar clamp position in the front head cutout. See illustration below. The clamp should be centered in the cutout for proper operation. Check clearance below the collar clamp and the bottom of the head cutout for adequate opening and closing clearance. It will require two people to perform this operation. CAUTION Improper alignment of the collar clamp can result in cut shirts, damage to the collar clamp or cause the front head to hang. CAUTION: If you do not have the proper clearance around the collar clamp after installing the machine as described above, repeat step 5 of “Setting and anchoring”, to verify the machine is properly leveled and anchored. If proper alignment cannot be obtained, please call the Forenta factory service department. This check can be made before the compressed air and electricity are connected to the machine. This is done by rotating the buck carriage by hand, holding firmly in place between the heads while the front head is pushed closed by hand. A final check of the collar clamp/head alignment should be done just prior to pressing of shirts to avoid possible damage to shirts. -8- INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Moisture removal Air compressors should have an aftercooler or heat exchanger to reduce the discharge air temperature. When compressed air is cooled, condensation is created. A moisture separator with an automatic drain should be added to the main airline after the aftercooler to remove the water. The air will continue to cool (and moisture will be created) as the air travels through the supply manifold. The supply connections for the presses should come off the top of the manifold and provisions for drainage should come off the bottom of the manifold (see illustration on next page). Compressed air connection Connect this machine to a compressed air system that is free from moisture and foreign material. The incoming airline should be blown out thoroughly before connecting to the press to prevent dirt and debris from damaging valves and plugging lines. A 3/8” NPT connection is located at the rear of the press that requires a minimum air supply of 85 p.s.i. Refer to the ``Detail Line Drawing’’ on “SPECIFICATIONS” page for the connection size and location. NOTE THE PIPE SIZE COMING TO THE PRESS SHOULD BE NO SMALLER THAN 3/8” PIPE. USING A SMALLER SIZE MAY CAUSE THE PRESS TO OPERATE SLOWLY OR ERRATICALLY. AIR LINE PIPING SHOULD BE 3/8” GALVANIZED STEEL OR ½” COPPER. A valve and union should be installed so the press can be serviced, if necessary, without shutting down any other equipment. CAUTION PROPER USE OF A VENTED LOCKOUT/TAGOUT VALVE DURING SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE CAN PREVENT INJURY TO PERSONNEL. -9- INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Steam supply Connect the steam inlet to a steam source with a minimum pressure of 115 p.s.i. and a maximum pressure of 125 p.s.i. The pipe size of the connection should be ½” NPT. The connection shall include a cutoff valve and pipe union. Steam inlets and outlets are marked on the back of the machine. Do not connect with any smaller piping than the size of the connections on the machines themselves. Use traps and check valves on all return lines. Refer to the ``Detail Line Drawing’’ for supply and return connection size and location. NOTE: Steam lines should be blown out thoroughly before connecting to the machine. This will help prevent debris from damaging valves and plugging lines. Condensate return The condensate connection requires two steam traps. The pipe size of the connection should be ½” NPT. A swing check valve should be installed after the steam trap and before the return line with a pipe union in between. All connections to presses and other feeder lines should come off the top of the steam header. Steam supply lines should never dead end at presses or at the end of manifolds. For optimum efficiency, steam pressure lines must have steam traps at the end of the header to remove condensate and to provide constant steam circulation. The traps should be checked periodically to assure that they are operating correctly. The steam piping illustration below is representative of proper steam supply and return installation. - 10 - INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS NOTICE FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND THE RECOMMENDED STEAM PIPING ILLUSTRATION MAY RESULT IN LESS THAN OPTIMUM QUALITY AND PRODUCTION AS WELL AS UNECESSARY STEAM LOSS. WARNING PRECAUTIONS MUST BE TAKEN WHEN WORKING WITH STEAM SYSTEMS. THE STEAM SHOULD BE TURNED OFF, THE SYSTEM DRAINED OF STEAM, HOT WATER AND PRESSURE, AND THE STEAM PIPING COOL BEFORE MAKING ANY REPAIRS. STEAM IS VERY HOT AND UNDER HIGH PRESSURE. IF CARE IS NOT TAKEN, IT CAN CAUSE SERIOUS BURNS AND INJURIES TO PERSONNEL. CAUTION ALL STEAM LINES SHOULD BE PROPERLY INSULATED TO PROTECT PERSONNEL AND TO INCREASE OPERATING EFFICIENCY.

CAUTION MAKE SURE ALL PERSONNEL ARE CLEAR FROM THE MACHINE BEFORE RESETTING THE EMERGENCY STOP. - 16 - OPERATING CONTROLS Close palmbuttons (green) These two buttons must be pressed at the same time to transfer the bucks after the shirt is dressed onto the buck. The bucks can be transferred to retrieve a pressed shirt by pressing the buttons before stepping on either footswitch. This prevents the heads closing on an empty buck and prevents an extra count on the counter. After a shirt is dressed and having completed the functions of the footswitches as noted above, depressing the CLOSE buttons will cause the buck carriage to rotate, the heads to close upon completion of rotation and the automatic timing cycle to begin. Cancel palmbuttons (red) Depressing either of these buttons will prevent the main press heads from closing. If depressed at any time after the buck carriage rotation starts, these buttons will stop the heads if they are in motion and return them to the open position where they will remain until the CLOSE system is reactivated by an operator. Depressing either of these two buttons will open the heads if they are closed on the shirt body, stop the automatic timing cycle, and place the machine in an at rest condition awaiting further operator input. The CANCEL buttons will not stop rotating bucks. The EMERGECY STOP button will stop buck carriage rotation. DRY-STEAM-DRY/STEAM-DRY Pressing this button will select between the two sleeve finishing modes. The DRY-STEAM-DRY mode starts the finishing cycle with hot air being blown into the sleeves for the DRYING AIR time set on the touchscreen display. This DRYING AIR continues throughout the finishing cycle, however, when this DRYING AIR time expires, steam will begin to be blown into the sleeves along with the continuing air. When the STEAM time, shown on the touchscreen display expires, the NORMAL DRYING AIR (or EXTENDED DRYING AIR) timer takes over and the hot air continues to blow for the duration of the time shown on the touchscreen for the respective timer. When the STEAM-DRY mode is selected, the steam and blown hot air enter the sleeve at the same time. This mode is exactly the same as described for DRY-STEAM-DRY except the DRYING AIR timer is bypassed. The touchscreen will display the selected mode in the upper left portion of the screen. The STEAM-DRY mode will most likely be the preferred operating mode. NO STEAM INJECTION Pressing this button will prevent steam injection into the shirt sleeves during the press cycle for the shirt being dressed. Injection will be prevented for this shirt only. The touchscreen will display STEAM INJECTION in the upper center of the screen when the STEAM INJECTION mode is selected. This display disappears when in the NO STEAM INJECTION mode. EXTENDED DRYING timer Pressing this button will change the drying cycle timer from the NORMAL DRYING AIR timer to The Extended DRYING AIR timer. The extended cycle will only apply to the press cycle for the shirt being dressed. “EXTENDED DRYING AIR” will appear on the touchscreen in the upper center portion of the screen. - 17 - OPERATING CONTROLS LONG/SHORT SLEEVE selection Pressing this button selects short or long sleeve mode. Once selected, the cycle will stay selected until changed by the operator. SHORT SLEEVE or LONG SLEEVE will appear on the touchscreen in the upper left portion of the screen.

Drape the shirt loosely over the buck and wrap the collar around the collar clamp. Do not touch the collar clamp snorkel tube because it may be hot. Wrap the collar around until the top button and the top buttonhole are overlapping with the buttonhole on top in the position as if buttoned. Depress and release either footswitch to close the collar clamp. If the collar needs readjusting, depress and release the RESET pushbutton to open the collar clamp. NOTE THE NECK BAND OF THE DRESSED SHIRT SHOULD LIE FAIRLY CLOSE TO THE COLLAR CLAMP. THE BUTTON AND BUTTON HOLE PORTIONS OF THE SHIRT WILL OVERLAP, MORE OR LESS, DEPENDING ON THE SIZE OF THE SHIRT. Select long or short sleeve using the LONG/SHORT SLEEVE button near the control panel (the machine will start in long sleeve mode). The grippers will move and the selection will be displayed on the touchscreen. This will stay selected until changed by the operator. The short sleeve grippers will lower into position only after the collar clamp is closed in short sleeve mode. Insert the right short sleeve or long sleeve cuff into the appropriate gripper and step on either pedal. Insert the left short sleeve or long sleeve cuff into the appropriate gripper and step on either pedal. Grasp each shirt tail and form an inverted “V” that begins at the collar clamp. Move the shirt tails farther or closer apart to remove wrinkles from the shirt front. Step on either pedal to start the buck vacuum. Lower the shirt tails to the buck and smooth if necessary. Use the mirror to remove wrinkles from the shirt’s back. The timer cycle will be the Normal Drying Air timer setting, displayed on the touchscreen. Most shirts can be properly pressed and dried with a 30 second setting. Actual time will depend upon garment material, garment material thickness, water retention from the washer/extractor, humidity and steam pressure to the machine. To use the Extended Drying Air timer, press the EXTENDED DRYING button near the touchscreen. The touchscreen will show the selection. This cycle time will be selected for this shirt only, reverting to the Normal Drying Air timer for the next shirt. Steam is injected into the sleeves for the time indicated on the Steam timer shown on the touchscreen. Steam injection can be prevented by pressing the NO STEAM INJECTION button near the touchscreen (“STEAM INJECTION” will not be shown in the touchscreen). This mode will remain in effect until changed by the operator. Steam-dry mode is selected by the DRY-STEAM-DRY/STEAM-DRY button near the touchscreen and is indicated on the touchscreen. This is the default mode and consists of the Steam timer and either the Normal Drying Air or Extended Drying Air timer. Steam injection can be prevented as described above, and either drying air timer may be selected as described above. - 22 - OPERATION Dry-steam-dry mode is also selected by the DRY-STEAM-DRY/STEAM-DRY button near the touchscreen and is indicated on the touchscreen. This mode consists of the Drying Air timer, the Steam timer and either the Normal Drying Air or Extended Drying Air timer. Steam injection can be prevented as described above, and either drying air timer may be selected as described above. This mode will only work for the shirt presently in the dressing position. Pressing operation Pressing the two green (CLOSE) pushbuttons at the same time will initiate buck transfer and start the pressing cycle. To interrupt the pressing cycle, press either red (CANCEL) pushbutton. This will cancel the pressing cycle, open the heads or prevent the heads from closing. It will not stop buck transfer. Pressing the Emergency Stop button is the only method of stopping the bucks when they are in motion. When the pressed shirt is transferred out to the dressing/unloading position, the collar clamp will automatically open. Carefully remove the shirt, being careful not to wrinkle it or be burned by the hot surfaces. Grasping the shirt by the upper sleeve and collar are areas that are usually cool enough to prevent burns. CAUTION THE PRESSED AREA OF THE GARMENT IS HOT! DO NOT TOUCH UNTIL COOL. AREAS NEXT TO THE PRESSED AREA MAY BE HOT DUE TO STEAM OR HOT WATER. - 23 - MAINTENANCE CAUTION THIS IS A RECOMMENDED PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE. FOR A SAFE AND EXTENDED SERVICE LIFE, A MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE MUST BE ESTABLISHED. EXPERIENCE MAY MODIFY THE FREQUENCY OF INSPECTIONS OR ADD ADDITIONAL INSPECTIONS. Daily 1. Check air filter in the supply line to the press (manually drain if necessary). Repair or replace if not draining properly. NOTE EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF OIL AND WATER DRAINING FROM THE FILTER COULD INDICATE A FAULTY AIR SUPPLY SYSTEM. THE AIR SYSTEM MUST BE PROPERLY MAINTANED TO PREVENT VOIDING THE WARRANTY AND CAUSING MALFUNCTIONS AND DAMAGE TO THE MACHINE. 2. Clean the pressing surface of the heads with Ez-Off™ cleaner while the heads are hot. Do not use an abrasive cleaner. This will damage the plated surface of the heads. After cleaning, apply a coat of paraffin wax or HOT-HEAD™ press lube to the pressing surface of the heads. Weekly 1. Check condition of the padding. Replace when it becomes worn, shrinks, or lacks resilience. 2. Clean lint, dust and debris from inside and around the machine. 3. Inspect steam traps to insure they are properly dumping water out of the press and that they are not allowing steam to blow through them. See “Checking the steam trap” in the Maintenance section in this manual. NOTICE A COOL TRAP WILL NOT LET THE MACHINE ACHIEVE PROPER TEMPERATURE. A CONSTANTLY BLOWING TRAP CAN CAUSE INTERNAL DAMAGE TO THE MACHINE. Monthly 1. Check to ensure that all warning and instructional labels are intact and readable. Replace as necessary for personnel safety. Every three months 1. Lubricate all grease fittings with high-temperature grease. 2. Check the main air pressure gauge to ensure that the regulator is set to the recommended pressure of 85 psi. 3. Check the control system to ensure that the press is functioning properly and that all safety features are functioning properly; make adjustments or repairs immediately. 4. Check the mechanical action of the press to ensure that it is working smoothly with no erratic actions. Make adjustments or repairs immediately. 5. Check for steam and air leaks. Any leaks should be repaired. 6. Clean padding. Every twelve months Inspect the buck metal base pads. If they have lost their resiliency (ability to spring back when depressed), they need to be replaced. Several factors affect the life of a pad with volume being the major factor. More frequent inspections may be necessary. Pre-installation/storage maintenance No servicing of this type of press is required during pre-installation, storage, or in service storage as long as the press is kept dry. - 24 - MAINTENANCE Particulate/coalescing compressed air filters The filter bowls have an auto drain which should be checked periodically. If there seems to be excessive accumulation of oily water, the air storage tank may need to be drained or the compressor may have bad rings that need to be replaced. Dirty air is one of the chief causes of excessive maintenance. If the air filter cartridges appear to be clogged, they can be taken out and cleaned, usually by blowing clean with an air hose. If the bowl appears damaged, it should be replaced. Air pressure Regulator 2 should be set at 85 p.s.i. Regulator 6 should be set at 55 p.s.i. Buck transfer speed control The speed of the buck transfer is controlled by adjusting the screw on the flow control 22 as shown below. The bucks should travel as fast as possible without bouncing off the end stops. Note: See “Airflow Diagram” in this manual for location. - 25 - MAINTENANCE Head closing speed adjustment The flow control valve 31 attached to the head closing valve SV8 (see Airflow Diagram and sketches below) can be turned clockwise to reduce head closing speed and turned counterclockwise to increase head closing speed. This valve should be adjusted so the heads close rapidly and smoothly without slamming the buck. NOTE: Changing the speed of the head closure may also affect the soft air and full air timing. See “Airbag soft air adjustment” and “Airbag full air adjustment” in the MAINTENANCE section of this manual. Snorkel connector regulator The snorkel connector regulator 8 controls the pressure to the snorkel connector cylinder 3 (see Airflow Diagram). Higher pressure yields a tighter seal, however too much pressure will push the buck, which is not desirable. - 26 - MAINTENANCE Snorkel connector speed control The snorkel connector speed control 30 controls the speed of the snorkel connector cylinder 13 in both directions (see Airflow Diagram). Set the extension speed first, then the retract speed. Airbag soft air adjustment Soft air in the airbags removes wrinkles from the shirt before the heads close. Too much soft air will distort the shirt, causing wrinkles. Too little soft air will not remove all wrinkles. This is controlled by the gap shown below. “Soft air” is a term used to describe the gentle flow of air into the airbags just prior to the heads coming into contact with the shirt. This air is regulated by the system below. A limited and controllable amount of air passes through valve 23 to the airbags. This amount of air is further limited by a portion exhausting to the atmosphere through valve 25. NOTE: These adjustments must be made while pressing a shirt. - 27 - MAINTENANCE Airbag full air adjustment Full air in the airbags removes wrinkles and dries the shirt after the heads close. Switching from soft air to full air too early in the heads contacting phase of head closure, will distort the shirt, causing wrinkles. Switching too late will not remove all wrinkles. This is controlled in part by the position of the proximity switch shown below. The adjustments here must be made in relation to the instructions listed under the “Airbag soft air adjustment” in the MAINTENANCE section of this manual. - 28 - MAINTENANCE Gripper arm (sleeve tension) adjustment The gripper arms (sleeve stretching arms) use a combination of spring tension and air pressure to control the tension exerted on sleeves. The springs are factory set and should never need adjusting. The springs are adjusted as noted below. Regulator (43) is factory set at 45 p.s.i. If additional tension is needed on the sleeves, the pressure on regulator (43) should be decreased. Decreasing the regulator pressure will consequently increase the sleeve tension. CAUTION TOO MUCH SLEEVE TENSION CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO SHIRTS OR CAUSE THEM TO PULL OUT OF THE GRIPPERS. BUCK CARRIAGE VALVE MANIFOLD - 29 - MAINTENANCE Collar clamp closing speed control The collar clamp closing speed is controlled by the adjusting flow control valves 44 as illustrated below. CAUTION COLLAR CLAMPS ADJUSTED TO CLOSE TOO FAST CAN CAUSE INJURY TO FINGERS. BUCK CARRIAGE VALVE MANIFOLD - 30 - MAINTENANCE Carriage manifold - 31 - MAINTENANCE Frame manifold - 32 - MAINTENANCE LUBRICATION POINTS ILLUSTRATION Lubricants Solenoid Valve SV8: Lubricate with Dow Corning 111™ valve lubricant and sealant. Order Forenta part number 34913 for 5.3 ounce tube. Short Sleeve Gripper Lift Cylinders: Lubricate with Plastilube™ No.1 (manufactured by Parr, Inc.) when repairing or rebuilding the cylinders. Order Forenta part number 16359-1 for 14 ounce cartridge. Bearings and Pivots: Lube with Plastilube™ No.1 (manufactured by Parr, Inc.). Order Forenta part number 16359-1 for 14 ounce cartridge. High Temp Areas (Bearings and Pivots): Use Spec-Lube™ (manufactured by National Chemsearch). Order Forenta part number 31023-1 for 14 ounce cartridge. WARNING Do not add oil to air cylinders or air system. This can damage valves and cylinders. - 33 - MAINTENANCE Air cylinders The short sleeve gripper lift cylinders on the press have an O-ring inside the cylinder which seals the piston and the cylinder wall. This O-ring should give years of trouble free service with no maintenance required. Air will blow through a vent hole in the cylinder tube if the O-ring ever develops a leak. In this case, the O-ring must be replaced. It can be slipped off of the piston by pressing it toward the center of the piston with the thumb and index finger and sliding toward one side to create looseness so it can be pulled off with the other hand. The Forenta part number for the O-ring is 15097-2. CAUTION When removing the O-ring from the piston, be careful not to damage or put any burrs on the piston. This will damage the cylinder wall. After removing the old O-ring from the piston, clean the piston and the inside of the cylinder wall. Pack the piston O-ring groove with grease. Then put the new O-ring on the piston and apply grease on top of the O-ring. Apply a light coat of grease on the inside of the cylinder wall. Always replace the base O-ring when repairing the cylinder. CAUTION: DO NOT PUT OIL IN CYLINDERS. An O-ring is placed inside the cylinder to serve as a bumper/stop for the retracting piston. NOTE: See “SHORT SLEEVE CLAMP LIFT CYLINDER” in the “PARTS ILLUSTRATION” section of this manual for a sectional view of the cylinder. NOTE Many of the air cylinders are not repairable. - 34 - MAINTENANCE Padding removal and installation Step 1: Remove the collar clamp by loosening the two hex head capscrews holding the block to the buck. Step 2: Remove the outer cover/airbag by untying the string at the base of the cover and unzipping the cover. Remove the hose clamps at the shoulder and base. Step 3: Remove the flannel by lifting it off the steel wool base pad. Step 4: Remove the steel wool base pad by lifting it off the buck. CAUTION The steel wool base pad consists of very small diameter steel wire. Gloves should be worn when removing or installing the base pad to prevent hand injury. To install new padding, reverse the removal steps, being sure to keep the base pad, flannel and outer cover/airbags centered on the buck. Take care to install the flannel in such a way that the special vacuum barrier fabric is on the top side of the flannel so that the fabric lies against the outer cover/airbag. Padding The padding must be maintained properly to assure a quality finish. The padding consists of a steel mesh pad placed directly on the bare buck. A piece of 20 ounce nylon flannel goes on top of the mesh. The flannel has a special fabric attached that acts as a vacuum barrier on the upper half of the rear side of the buck. The outer cover/airbag goes on last. The flannel should be checked about every 4 weeks. If it has become hard and brittle, it should be replaced. This flannel must stay soft and have some bounce-back in order to get a good finish. If it is not replaced when necessary, continuous pressing will cause it to deteriorate as it is compressed against the mesh pad. The steel mesh pad may last for one, two or three years, more or less, depending on how much the press is used and depending on how well the flannel is maintained. The outer cover needs to be replaced when it shows signs of wear or deterioration, or when the airbags are no longer capable of building up pressure. Note: The padding, as a whole, must have some compression when the heads close and expansion when the heads open. - 35 - MAINTENANCE Checking the steam trap Proper heat will not get to the press unless the steam traps are working properly. It is a simple check with an inexpensive pyrometer. Apply the probe to the pipes and compare readings. Pyrometer INSTRUCTIONS 1. Read temperatures at “A”, “B” and “C” in °F (degrees Fahrenheit). 2. If “B” is more than 10° lower than “A”, the trap is not dumping correctly. 3. If “C” is less than 40° lower than “B”, the trap is hanging open. (With a bucket trap, “C” is usually 70° to 100° lower than “B”; with an impulse trap, “C” is usually 40° to 70° lower than “B”.) Example: 1. A= 300°; B= 295°; C= 210° -- Trap OK 2. A= 300°; B= 250° -- Trap not dumping 3. A= 300°; B= 295°; C= 294° -- Trap hanging open NOTE The above figures should be considered as a general guide in troubleshooting a steam system. They do not rule out other possible problems. - 36 - STEAM FLOW DIAGRAM WARNING PRECAUTIONS MUST BE TAKEN WHEN WORKING WITH STEAM SYSTEMS. THE STEAM SHOULD BE TURNED OFF, THE SYSTEM DRAINED OF STEAM, HOT WATER AND PRESSURE, AND THE STEAM PIPING COOL BEFORE MAKING ANY REPAIRS. STEAM IS VERY HOT AND UNDER HIGH PRESSURE. IF CARE IS NOT TAKEN, IT CAN CAUSE SERIOUS BURNS AND INJURIES TO PERSONNEL. - 37 - 15 15 15 15 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 17 17 18 18 18 18 17 17 18 18 18 18 15 32 15 37 33 33 - 38 35 15 15 11 15 15 18 38 18 38 18 18 18 38 18 10 38 18 18 39 26 34 24 29 28 35 39 29 28 35 35 9 40 35 29 28 35 40 29 28 35 35 31 41 25 15 15 9 SV8 26 34 36 30 13 8 1 23 15 32 35 18 15 15 44 1 35 18 32 15 15 41 22 27 15 32 21 15 15 44 AIRFLOW DIAGRAM 2 3 12 2 3 33 33 - 39 - LS9 LS10 LS11 LS18 LS19 LS22 LS23 CARRIAGE MANIFOLD LS8 LS17 LS16 LS20 LS21 LS16 LS9 LS17 LS8 LS21 LS20 NOTE: Set dip switches as shown LEFT HAND CONTROL BOX Viewed from front of machine Viewed from front of machine LS18 LS10 LS11 LS19 LS23 LS22 CONTROL BOXES LS03 LS02 LS15 SV08 viewed from rear of machine FRAME MANIFOLD PRS01 LS13 LS14 LS01 LS05 LS12 SV27 M01 LS04 M02 SV08 viewed from front of machine SV27 NOTE: Set dip switches as shown LS15 WIRING NOTE #1: LS03 LS12 LS13 LS01 LS14 PRS01 viewed from rear of machine RIGHT HAND CONTROL BOX LS02 LS05 LS04 DISCONNECT BOX WIRING NOTE #2: viewed from rear of machine ELECTRICAL DIAGRAM M01 M02 PARTS ILLUSTRATIONS ORDERING INFORMATION Any parts shown on the following pages should be available from the distributor from whom you purchased this machine.
