5 Maintenance and Repair
5.1 Exchanging Glass Plate with Vacuum Plate
The factory installed glass plate may be replaced in the field with an optional
vacuum plate (accessory #3876, see “
”).
To exchange the plates follow these instructions:
1.
Remove the glass by lifting on the right-hand edge. It will release with
firm, even force.
2.
Remove the weight and the push-bar.
3.
There are 4 screws, one at each corner of the glass plate support. Remove
these screws. These same screws will be used with the new plate.
4.
Lift off the glass plate support. Note the position of the 4 aluminum spac-
ers.
5.
The vacuum plate accessory comes with 2 vacuum fittings. Select a fitting
appropriate to the size of the tubing that will be used.
6.
Set the glass plate support on the spacers.
7.
Install the 4 screws to hold the plate. Start each screw in the threads, then
tighten all four.
8.
Reinstall the weight and the push-bar.
9.
Set the removed plate and glass aside. Be sure to protect the glass from
breakage.
Notice
Installing a vacuum plate requires an external vacuum source - see “
”.
