CONTROL PANEL
Located above the converter housing on the X-Press are the following
controls:
1. SPEED CONTROL knobs allow regulation of the velocity at which the
horn descends and returns (stroke speed). These controls are factory
adjusted for average operating conditions. When minor adjustments are
necessary, be sure to adjust in small degrees. Pull the red ring out to
release and push in to lock setting.
The left knob, labeled "UP," controls the return speed - turn the knob
clockwise to slow the speed, counterclockwise to increase speed. The
right knob, labeled "DOWN," controls the descending speed – turn the
knob clockwise to slow the speed, counterclockwise to increase speed.
2. PRESSURE REGULATOR with corresponding gauge that allows
regulation of the (air) pressure with which the horn contacts the part(s).
Pull the knob to make adjustments, and then push in to lock setting when
desired pressure is displayed on the gauge. Once pulled, turning the knob
clockwise increases pressure, and turning it counterclockwise decreases
pressure.
3. HEAD DOWN switch. Depressing the Head Down switch and then the
left Palm button allows the head to move down under gauge pressure.
When the pressure switch closes, the display will show the message “HD
LATCHED.” Release the Head Down switch and the left Palm button and
the head will remain in the down position. To retract the head, press the
right Palm button. The Head Down switch is for set-up purposes only –
these actions do not cause ultrasonics to be activated.
