5.6 Electric Hose Care and Cautions
Step
Action
CAUTION
Twisting and kinking of the electric hose (used on Super Shots, and EZ Series Melters)
causes the hose to fail; the electric heating wires can get shorted out to the metal hose
cover and the hose stops heating.
This type of failure is not covered under the Crafco warranty.
1
Set the hose temperature at 380°F (193.3°C), or manufacturer recommended operating
temperature.
2
Allow the hose to be turned “ON” and heating for a minimum of 30 minutes.
3
Make sure the hose swivel between the hose and wand moves freely.
Note:
Do not twist or bend the hose over sharp edges such as the edge of the frame or
tank. Crafco, Inc. recommends you do not work directly under the boom; this may cause
damage to the hose.
4
Follow all machine instructions in this manual.
CAUTION
Hose damage occurs if:
The hose is bent or moved when cold.
The hose is twisted or bent at a sharp radius.
The hose is moved before being heated a minimum of 30 minutes and set at 380°F.
The operator crosses over or under the hose causing the wires between the hose and
wand connection to twist or wrap up.
The swivel is cold and is not flexible which can cause the hose to twist.
The wiring between the hose and the wand is pulled, stressed, or used to support the
wand.
