Depress the red ring and pull on the air hose STP Operating Principles and Terms The following section describes the basic principles of operation of the 45 930 STP The STP uses a combination of four variables to perform each strip It is important to gt zz 1 L 3 understand each of these four control parameters and how they interrelate to obtain T we 5 the desired stripping results The four variables are HEAT SPEED PRESSURE and STRIP LENGTH Each variable is described in terms of settings ranges and effects on stripping The individual variable settings may affect the other variables and the final stripping results Please refer to the Electrical Controls section for instructions on how to regulate each setting via the control panel HEAT Thermal Blade The HEAT setting controls the level of power heat directed to the blades during the thermal cutting phase of the stripping cycle with 10 being lowest heat and 100 highest The STP may also be operated with a heat setting of 0 which runs the unit through a complete cycle without using the blades This is intended to pull off a slug that has already been cut either by the STP or manual methods Since the STP is a thermal stripper heat plays a very important role in the stripping process Insulation materials have a wide variety of melting temperatures requiring the STP to produce a full range of blade HEAT settings The melting tem
