INTRODUCTION

Tubing for the machine:a) It should be no more than 30’ longb) 3/8” outside diameter polyurethane tubing will

workc) The pressure at the machine must maintain .6

bard) The compressor must have a flow rate of at

least 4cfm @90psi

TUBING

TUBING

1. Should be plugged into a 110 volt circuit, with a 30 amp breaker

2. Maintain a tank pressure of at least 90 psi3. Have an air supply shut off valve, somewhere in

the air supply line (usually by the machine)4. Always use a water separator

THE AIR COMPRESSOR

1. Make sure that the compressor is depressurized before continuing2. Connect one end of the blue air tubing to the drain point on the

compressor by using the supplied 900 Elbow fitting3. Plug in the Power Cable to the timer4. Connect the Signal Cable from the solenoid to the timer5. Insert the blue air tubing to both sides of the drain valve

1. One side is where water will purge and must go to collection point2. Be sure to secure the purge tubing to the collection point so that the

tubing does not whip freely as high pressure air will be coming out with the water

Auto Drain Hook Up

1. Open the top cover of the Dryer system and inspect the Inlet tubing to ensure it is not bent or kinked, Straighten out as needed.

2. Connect the Tubing from the air compressor’s outlet to Inlet of dryer. 3. Connect Blue Air Tubing from outlet side of dryer to the inlet CAMS Machine’s

air service unit.

Dryer Hook Up

4. The grey knob, at the end of the air service system, is the air shutoff knob.a) In-line with the air hose equals open (on)b) Across equals closed (off)c) The filters that are in the air service unit consist

of:1. Pressure Regulator2. Particulate filter3. Water separator

d) Press up on the tubing that comes from the filters to empty daily

5. If the pressure regulator must be adjusteda) It must read .6 bar, when air line is open. To

adjust:1. lift the valves black cover to unlock2. turn clockwise to increase pressure3. turn counter clockwise to decrease pressure4. after adjusting, press down to lock

ALIGNING THE SWING GUN WITH THE PART FEEDER

Use the TAB button to highlight the SYSTEM menu Press SETWhen on M-Part, press SET While on MAG, use the SET button to choose left or right part feeder TAB to PF

Press SET to spin the parts feeder, which will fill it with stones, as well as acquire a “value.”

If the plate does not spin, turn it by hand about two clicks, which will make it turn when you press SET.

TAB to GUN Press SET to engage the swing gun Press to bring the swing gun over to the left parts feeder (press for the right parts feeder.) This is done a little more efficiently with the air supply turned off, at this time (simply turn it off at the machine).

The gun tip must be perfectly centered over the stones. To see this better, simply extend the gun tip, by hand, towards the feeder plate. You can use a flashlight and/or a magnifying glass to see the relationship better.

On SS6 stones, the gun tip will cover the stone On SS10 and larger stones, the gun tip will cover or be centered over the crown of the stone.

Tapping the plate with your finger(s) will ensure the stones are in the correct position in the parts feeder holes. If the stones are not lined up with gun tip, and they are off at the top or bottom (left & right), TAB to PF. Use the or arrow keys to move the parts feeder plate to the left (up) or to the right (down), until the gun tip is directly over the stone. After making the adjustment you must press SET for the new coordinate to be recognized by the machine If the gun tip is too far in front of or behind the stone, you adjust this by physically moving the parts feeder.

This is done by loosening the wing nuts(2) that hold the parts feeder to the machine. Then physically move the feeder forward

or backward slightly, until the tip of the gun is centered over the stone.

Tip: Support the weight of the edge of the parts feeder that is furthest from the wing nuts (just slightly). This will make it easier to move the parts feeder in small increments.

After that adjustment, you may have to go back to the PF adjustment to get the left and right adjustments corrected. Continue these steps until the tip of the gun is perfectly over the center of the stone. Then adjust the other side.

Note: On a new machine, these adjustments have been made for you, so unless they have shifted during shipping, they should already be done. However, the machine comes adjusted for an SS6 plate on the left and an SS10 plate on the right. As you change plates, you will have to make these adjustments. If done properly, they will only be left and right adjustments, not front to back.

Using your hand, retract the gun tip away from the parts feeder. TAB to GUN then press SET. This will bring the gun away from the parts feeder.

FILLING OR CHANGING STONES & Parts Feeder (PF) PLATES

The PF plates have three holes. The center is smooth, and the other two are threaded. The threaded ones are to aid in the removal of the plate.

Watch for the arrows marked on the plate. The counter clockwise arrow is for the right parts feeder, as it is tightened by turning the screw knob counter clockwise (to the left), to tighten.

The deeper holes are for running rhinestones and rhinestuds The more shallow holes are for nailheads Ensure the metal stud is flush with the top facing surface of the parts feeder plate

Pushing it down too far(indented), could cause it to hit the sensor Having it too high(raised), could cause it to disturb, and possibly break, some rhinestones

Fill the PF with stones Turn the PF plate by hand to ensure all the holes are filled

Place the cover back on Tighten down the retaining screw Swing the magazine back into position Lock it in placeTo Change Stones Unlock the PF magazine Swing it open (out) Remove the black cover, after loosening the thumb screw Sweep out as many stones as possible Tap the plate to get the stones out of the holes in the PF plate Remove the center retaining screw Place something under the hole, in the back underside of the magazine, to catch the remaining stones Gently lift the PF plate up, tilting the top slightly towards you, as to dump the stones out of the bottom.

PROVING THE MACHINE After the PF, SPIN, and SWING guns are aligned, we can record the values (position) of each. Record these values to make changing the parts feeder plates more efficient. Be sure to record the values for the LEFT parts feeder as well as the RIGHT parts feeder, for each size plate (stone). Remember, your machine comes already adjusted for SS6 on the LEFT and SS10 on the RIGHT, as long as nothing moved during shipping. Be sure to run a test pattern for each PF (both left & right), for each size feeder plate you might put on that side.

Tip: When running the test patterns, run it directly on the silicone bed (table), not a transfer sheet, so you can recover the stones. Make sure the stones are not flipping over or being placed on edge, and they are in nice straight rows and columns. Once Proven, then record your values Use something with a stiff straight edge to scrape the stones off the silicone pad.

Upon completing the design, put the white protective cover sheet back on, over the stones

This prevents the stones from moving. Gently press them down.

The heat press should be at 340 degrees. Note: It is a good idea to put a shirt or two on the press, so you get a more even pressure on the different size stones

Heat press for 24 – 25 seconds Allow garment to cool completely

The garment and sheet must be at room temperature Peel away the transfer sheet, leaving behind the stones

This technique is referred to as a “cold peel”

MAINTENANCE DAILY

Make sure there are no stones in the teeth of the belts (X & Y) Clean the bottom of the machine Place oil on a paper towel or rag and wipe down the X & Y rails

Use clear machine oil Be sure to empty any water out of the water separator, in the air handling system

Press up on the tubing and make sure the air coming out is dry

MONTHLY Swing Gun Nozzle

Remove by turning counter clockwise with an 8mm box wrench Make sure the tip moves freely

Place a drop of clear machine oil next to the tip, where it meets the casing, and work it in and out with your finger, ensuring free movement

Run a small wire (paper clip) through the tip to ensure the tip is free of any obstructions and dust.

MONTHLY Cont. Spin (setter) Gun Nozzle

Hint: Swing out the right parts feeder magazine. This will make this much easier Disconnect the tubing from the fittings Position the table under the spin gun

That way it can catch the screws as you remove them

Remove the 4 black allen head screws Remove this assembly (simply slide it out) Clean the shaft, spring, and “O” ring until it looks shiny and new Be sure the “O” ring is clean and dry Clean out the casing on the machine Lubricate the “O” ring with a silicone grease, such as Haynes

In a pinch you can use the 20wt clear machine oil, but the grease is better and lasts longer

Very lightly (a film) grease the walls of the casing Place the nozzle assembly back in the machine, without the screws

Work the assembly up and down until the walls are coated and it moves freely

MONTHLY Cont. Replace the allen head screws and tighten them down

Tighten them down across from one another, similar to torqueing the lugs on a car Do not over tighten

Reconnect the tubing

ANNUALLY Replace the tubing

Push in the blue fittings to release the tubing Cut new pieces

Make sure cuts are straight and clean Be sure to replace rigid tubing with rigid tubing, and soft tubing with soft tubing. You can feel the difference

Push tubing into the fittings tightly to reseat

ANNUALLY The elbow fitting must be cleaned out

Disconnect tubing Remove them with a box wrench Clean them out with a small pipe cleaner and compressed air Put them back on machine

Do not over tighten Reconnect the tubing

The straight fittings must be cleaned out Disconnect tubing Remove the fittings with a 2.5mm allen wrench inserted into the fitting

Never use anything that will clamp onto the outside of the fitting, such as pliers, as you may damage the fitting Turn to the left, counter clockwise, to remove

Clean them out with a small pipe cleaner and compressed air Put them back on machine Reconnect the tubing

AS NECESSARY The gun nozzle tips will need to be replaced. The constant pounding against the stones will distort the shape of the tip over time, and you will start experiencing dropped, flipped, or thrown stones.

The distorted shape does not allow the proper suction between the gun tip and the stones

Remove and wipe off the dust, from the filters, in the air handling system Clean the dust filter, located on the right hand side, behind the swing gun

Swing right magazine out of the way Disconnect the tubes from the top & bottom Note the direction of the arrow on the clear outer housing

Arrow points down Take off the end of the housing Wipe off the “O” ring

Do not lubricate it Do not get the filter wet. Wipe it off and blow it off Clean out the inside of the housing

Use a rag or paper towel

Put filter back in housing Put cap back on Reconnect the tubing at top and bottom

Make sure it is seated all the way, as tight as possible

Place filter back in the holding bracket Swing magazine back in position.
