Operation
Adjust the stacking tubes
22
The adjustments should only be carried out on appliances which are switched
off, disconnected from the power supply and at a suitable temperature (room
temperature).
Prior to commencing work, check that the stacker in question is correctly set
for the particular heat-retaining trays or plates being used.
•
The dispensing or removal height must be checked to ensure that the per-
sonnel are not injured or trapped and to prevent the crockery being broken.
If any one of the following parameters are changed, it is absolutely essential
that the equipment is adjusted accordingly: Height H
and Weight.
Heat-retaining trays and plates which are too small cannot be correctly guided
and must not be used. Details of the acceptable diameters are to be found in
Chapter «Technical Data» on Page 29.
Setting the springs to the desired dispensing height
The dispensing height must be adjusted to suit the items being stacked prior
to loading the equipment. The dispensing height must be set such that the up-
permost item in the stack is continuously conveyed upwards during the entire
lifting action at a constant dispensing height between 4 and 6 cm above the
upper edge of the casing.
•
When the dispensing height is exceeded, there is a risk of accident or injury
due to tipping of the column and breakage of crockery.
•
If the level falls below the dispensing height, injuries to the fingers due to
squashing can occur when removing plates.
Step 1 - Checking the spring setting
•
15 to 20 items are placed on the stacking platform for the purpose of testing
the dispensing height.
•
Wait for a reaction.
•
If the removal height of the column is approx. 5 cm above the upper edge
of the equipment, then the spring system is set correctly.
•
If the column only drops a little or not at all, the serving height must be al-
tered by altering the spring setting.
Step 2 - Altering the spring setting
The dispensing height is set/altered by inserting or releasing tension springs
on the four attachment bars. The springs are arranged in groups of 4 each with
a
1 strong base spring
and 3 weaker setting springs
•
If the dispensing height is too high, setting springs must be released.
•
If the dispensing height is too low, setting springs must be inserted.
