Two-Way Tilt Option
Washer-extractors equipped with the two-way tilt
option are capable of tilting as much as 13° forward or
backward.
The forward tilt is used primarily for unloading. The
reverse tilt is used for loading the washer-extractor.
To load the washer-extractor, follow this procedure:
1. Open the loading door and secure it to the door
latch on the right side of the washer-extractor.
2. Turn the selector dial on the pendant switch left
to the reverse tilt position. Refer to Figure 9.
3. While holding down the green ENABLE button,
press the black REVERSE button. Refer to
Figure 9. The washer-extractor will slowly tilt
backward and the basket will rotate
counterclockwise.
4. Load the washer-extractor.
5. To lower the washer-extractor, turn the selector
back to the center position. Refer to Figure 9.
6. Unlatch and close loading door.
Upon completion of a cycle, the basket can be
unloaded as follows:
1. Open the loading door and secure it to the door
latch on the right side of the washer-extractor.
2. Turn the selector dial on the pendant switch right
to the forward tilt position. Refer to Figure 9.
3. While holding down the green ENABLE button,
press the black FORWARD button. Refer to
Figure 9. The washer-extractor will slowly tilt
forward, and the basket will rotate clockwise.
4. Unload the washer-extractor.
5. To lower the washer-extractor, turn the selector
dial back to the center position. Refer to Figure 9.
6. Unlatch and close loading door.
Two-Way Tilt Inductive Proximity Sensor
Adjustment
The Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) uses four
inductive proximity sensors on the two-way tilt
platform to detect the position of the frame and
prevent unsafe operation. These sensors MUST be in
place and operational.
Front Down and Rear Down Sensor
Adjustment
The front down sensor is located next to the front left
lock cylinder mounted on the lower (floor) frame. The
rear down sensor is located next to the rear left lock
cylinder mounted on the lower (floor) frame. Adjust
these two sensors so that the plastic face is 4 to 6 mm
from the edge of the upper channel when fully seated
on the lower frame. The sensor LED should be on
when the frame is fully seated and should turn off
before the machine has lifted more than 3/4 in. out of
the associated pivot point.
Seated Sensor Adjustment
Adjust the seated sensor so that the plastic face is 4 to
6 mm from the edge of the upper channel when the
frame is fully seated. The sensor LED should be on
when the frame is fully seated and should turn off
before the upper channel edge has lifted more than
1/2 in. at the sensor face.
Up Sensor Adjustment
Adjust this sensor so that it is on when the washer-
extractor is fully tilted in either direction and off when
the washer-extractor is seated or in transition from one
position to another. This adjustment will vary
somewhat from machine to machine because it is
impossible to seat the washer-extractor on the tilt
frame in exactly the same relative position every time.
On cabinet freestanding models with tilt
option, the loading door must be securely
latched in the open position before the
machine is tilted. A freely swinging door
could cause personal injury.
