NOTE: The tank cleaning procedures provided in this section require that an
appropriate hot melt system cleaner be used to soften or dissolve residual

appropriate for the adhesives you are using, contact your hot melt supplier.
WARNING! Hot! Risk of burns. Wear heat-protective clothing, safety
goggles, and/or heat-protective gloves.
1. Empty the tank either by operating the system until the tank is empty or
by pumping out the contents using the drain valve. Refer to Draining the
Tank given earlier in this section.
2. While the tank is at normal operating temperature, and while wearing
appropriate protective equipment, wipe residual hot melt and loose char
from the tank. Do not use sharp objects to scrape the tank as damage to
the release coating may result.

cleaner manufacturer's instructions.
4. Using the drain valve, pump the cleaner out of the tank. Refer to Draining
the Tank given earlier in this section.

inside of the tank clean again.
6. Replace the adhesive filter with a new one.

system by pumping a minimum of one tank of the new adhesive through
the system.
8. Return the system to normal operation.
