travelling to move the carriage unit to the position to

set.

POINT

Set it to the position where the runner does not go into

the safety door of the molding machine when the

runner is open.

Set the release-side area proximity switch dog with

the release-side area proximity switch (LS-12).

POINT

Adjust it to the position where the ON lamp of the

proximity switch comes on.

Set the mode and the timer referring to the operation section of the manual after the above

mechanical setting is completed.

CAUTION

• Be sure to additionally tighten each bolt adjusted when setting before startingthe automatic operation.

• Check to see that the tools used for mechanical adjustment are not left on theunloader or inspection table again before starting manual or automaticoperation after adjusting the machine. If something drops, workers may beinjured or machines may be damaged.

4. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTIONTo prolong the service life of the unloader and to prevent accidents, inspect the unloader regularly (once

a month).

Tightening loose nuts and bolts

The loader and molding machine are exposed to storing impact for a long period of time. Therefore,

exercise added care to avoid loose nuts and bolts, which may cause breakage of the loader and mold of

the molding machine.

• Looseness of mounting bolts of each limit switch for ascending, travelling, advancement and

confirmation of the products

• Looseness of the lock bolts of stopper for vertical stroke adjustment and the absorber bracket

• Looseness of ascent and descent end shock absorber fixing nut and advance end shock absorber fixing

nut

• Looseness of the terminal in the terminal box which is a relay between the carriage unit and the

control box (It may cause a malfunction.)

Lubricating parts subject to friction

Apply grease periodically according to the lubrication diagram.

Cleaning LM guide and traverse rail surfaces

Scratches, grease and dirt on the surface of the vertical and crosswise LM guides and the traverse LM

guide on the traverse rail top may impede smooth operation, so clean them off periodically.

Replacing damaged air tubes

Bent or damaged air tubes interfere with the proper flow of air. If there is air leak from any joint or air

tube, replace et immediately.

Confirmation of Pressure-reducing Valve with Filter

Confirm the adjustment method and precautions for pressure reducing valve with the operation manual

for filter and regulator (AW series) described later.

Confirmation of Vacuum Generator

Confirm the adjustment method and precautions for the vacuum generator with the corresponding

operation manual.

Checking expendable parts and sub expendable parts

Check and replace expendable parts in accordance with the expendable parts list.
