Do not mix glue pellet brands!
Most do not mix well with others!
**The Equalizer is sent out with CanPlast brand pellets. If you would like to use a different brand, DO
NOT fill the Glue Pot with the pellets supplied!
Before running the machine:
ƒ Begin by dumping a small amount of glue pellets into Glue Magazine. Do not fill the
Magazine past halfway full. This will ease the process of color changing later, and
also prevents the pellets from getting jammed at the base of the Magazine.
ƒ Remove the Glue Pot and fill it with pellets up to the top of the Wheel Axle. This is
done by loosening the Star Knob underneath the Glue Pot until the Glue Pot Clamp
raises up off of the Pot.
ƒ Install the Glue Pot making sure that the red gasket is well sealed with the tube.
ƒ With the machine set-up, turn on the power. The light should begin to strobe
regularly.
ƒ The machine will come out of Warm-up Mode (see page 10) after 18 minutes. The
light will change to solid when it is ready. After the machine comes out of warm-up,
the Transfer Wheel can be rotated a half turn to ensure that fresh glue is ready for
application. At that point you can begin running boards. Use CAUTION when
turning the Transfer Wheel because it will be very hot.
