MAREKO Deep Platen Assembly
Product Information
The MAREKO Deep Platen Assembly is a component designed for use with a machine. It consists of a Wear Plate and short 1/4 HexBolts.
Wear Plate
The Wear Plate is a durable plate that is used to protect the Flat Platen
of the machine. It is installed using the short 1/4 Hex Bolts.
Short 1/4 Hex Bolts
The short 1/4 Hex Bolts are used to secure the Wear Plate to the Flat
Platen of the machine. It is important to align the Wear Plate with the belt
on the machine before tightening the bolts. Please note that overtightening
the bolts may strip the threads in the wear plate, so it is important to
tighten them securely but not excessively.
Product Usage Instructions
- Locate the Wear Plate and the short 1/4 Hex Bolts.
- Position the Wear Plate on the Flat Platen of the machine, aligning it with the belt.
- Insert the short 1/4 Hex Bolts through the designated holes on the Wear Plate and into the Flat Platen.
- Tighten the bolts securely using an appropriate tool, ensuring that the Wear Plate is firmly attached to the Flat Platen.
- Be careful not to over-tighten the bolts, as this can strip the threads in the wear plate. Tighten them securely but not excessively.
Following these instructions will properly install the MAREKO Deep Platen Assembly onto your machine, providing protection to the Flat Platen during usage.
