Roller Spreader Operation

1. Turn the unit on and fill the glue pan. Bring the adhesive level up until it contacts the bottom of the roll and then fill it another 1/4" higher. Add adhesive later if the roll runs dry.

2. Check the glue spread on the wood with the mil gage provided. A 6-8 mil spread is usually desirable but this can be adjusted heavier if you prefer. Adjust the adhesive spread by turning the thumb screws in or out accordingly. The adjustment can be locked by tightening the elastic stop nuts while holding the thumb screws in the proper position.

3. Move the wood across the roller by hand in the same direction the roller is turning and at approximately the same speed at which the glue roller outer surface is moving.

4. As light a pressure as possible should be applied to the wood to prevent the glue from squeezing up onto the surfaces which are not being glued.

OPERATION

5. Keep the roller spreader running whenever there is glue in the pan. If the motor is turned off for too long, or the glue pan runs dry the rollers may glue themselves to one another causing the motor to stall and the fuse to blow.

6. When you are finished using the roller spreader place the glue roller and doctor roller in a 5 gallon or larger container filled near to the top with water and keep below the surface of the water until they are needed again.

7. Keep the cover securely snapped down on the glue pan when not in use to prevent the glue from skimming over.

Operational Troubleshooting

1.The machine will not turn on

Add water to the PVA glue to make up for the water that is lost from the glue due to evaporation.

The motor is protected by a 1 amp fuse inside the electrical box. Remove the cover and access the fuse holder to replace the fuse if necessary. Spare fuses are shipped inside the electrical box

2. The glue hardens to the rollers

Submerge the roller in water to soften up the hardened glue until they can be sepa- rated and then resume operation of the roller spreader.

3. The glue becomes too thick
