Introduction
Congratulations, you have chosen a VASTEX conveyor curing system. VASTEX has been designing and build-
ing dryers since 1960 and has the knowledge and expertise to supply a quality dryer and help you keep it running for
years to come. VASTEX has innovated many of the features found in conveyor ovens today from control methods,
modular features, air movements and belt tracking.
Vastex Infrared Dryer have been Factory tested and burned in for a period of 2-8 hours. All components are
tested to be sure they work correctly when the Dryer leaves our factory.
The Instruction Manual and Safety Instructions must be read and understood by anyone operating
the Vastex Conveyor Drying System.
The operator should read and understand the instruction manual before operating this equipment. Store instruc-
tion manual and safety instructions near equipment for easy access to operators.
VASTEX Conveyor Drying System is intended for the curing of non-flammable inks on screen printed materials.

Stability during use, transportation, assembly, testing, and foreseeable break-
The D-100 and D-1000 dryers are designed and expected to be inherently stable under all
foreseeable conditions of use, assembly, testing, etc., so long as the procedures listed in
this manual are followed. Be certain that your workbench, table, or stand can safely sup-
port the weight of your machine (see below).
Safe handling, transport, and storage:
Unplug your dryer and allow it to cool before storing. When handling or transporting your
machinery, be aware of the following weights and dimensions:
D-100: Assembled — 89 lbs (40.4 kg); 46” x 24” x 24” (119 x 61 x 61 cm)
Boxes: #1 – 57 lbs (25.9 kg); #2 – 14 lbs (6.4 kg); #3 – 18 lbs (8.2 kg); Boxes on skid: 115
lbs (52.2 kg)
D-1000: Assembled — 116 lbs (52.6 kg), 46” x 32” x 24” (119 x 81 x 61 cm)
Boxes: #1 – 38 lbs (17.2 kg); #2 – 43 lbs (19.5 kg); #3 – 35 lbs (15.9 kg); Boxes on skid:
137 lbs (62.1 kg)
Adjustment and Maintenance:
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown:
Safety during adjustment and maintenance
Before beginning any maintenance or adjustment procedures on your dryer:
If the machine’s heater has been ON, shut the heat control OFF, but allow the belt to
continue running for 10 -15 minutes, or until the heater has cooled to 300°F (149°C) or
lower . If the belt is stopped while the heater is hot, belt damage will occur.
Switch machine OFF and disconnect from power before beginning any adjustment or
maintenance.
Do not attempt any maintenance while machine is powered.
Do not run machine with panels or guards removed.
Periodically check ink temperature on garments exiting machine. See page 11,
“Operation Tips.” Readjust temperature control as necessary to maintain correct tem-
perature for your application.
Occasionally, check belt tracking and adjust if necessary. See page 9, step 12.
Chains in chain drives can loosen over time; occasionally check the tension on the
chain in your machine.
Allow heater to cool, then shut off machine and disconnect from power as described above
in “Safety during adjustment and maintenance.”

many types of fabric inks. The heater height and tilt is adjusted by knobs located on the sides
of the chamber. A heater height scale allows for accurate height adjustment.

Belt The conveyor belt is made of Teflon coated fiberglass. It is joined together with an alliga-
tor lace using a steel pin to connect each side. The belt will not burn under normal
conditions but the dryer should always have the belt moving while the heater is hot. The
belt should remain tracked in the center of each pulley. (See Belt Installation and
Tracking for adjustment instructions.)
Aligner The aligner is a device for tracking the belt and keeping it on the pulley. As the belt moves
from side to side the aligner is used for adjustments to keep it centered. The belt does
not have to be perfectly centered on the pulley but should not be hanging over either
edge.
Pulley The pulleys at either end of the conveyor are made by VASTEX of 4 ½ inch tubing with ¾
inch center shaft. They are mounted on self aligning flange bearing blocks for precision
rolling.
Gear Motor A 90 Volt DC gear motor is located to the rear of the conveyor. It drives the rear pulley
and belt with a roller and a #25 chain.
Belt Speed Control Rotate knob clockwise to increase, counter clockwise to decrease belt speed. Turn knob
counter clockwise until it clicks for off position.
Heat Control Turns power on/off and varies heater temperature.
Fuses Protects the belt drive control circuit.
