Adjusting the Sensitivity of the Optional Bin Level

Monitor

!!! DANGER !!!

Because electrical power must be supplied to the sensor to permit testing and

adjustment, it is EXTREMELY VITAL that you secure the machine for normal

operations.

Do so by closing the cutting chamber and hopper access door, which returns the

safety limit switch to the closed position, PRIOR to beginning any sensor

adjustments to ensure the safety of personnel.

Although the bin level sensor was installed and tested at the
factory to ensure reliable operation, variations in the physical
properties of the material run through the granulator require that
you adjust the sensor to suit your particular requirements. Follow
these steps during initial pre-operational electrical testing and
whenever you change the type of material run through the
granulator.
