Stroke Limiters for Metering Gates
Stroke limiters are supplied on components 1 through 6 with all Slide Gate blenders to allow
standard metering gates to meter small amounts of low percentage additive materials.
Generally, the stroke limiter is not required on major ingredients (usually number 1 and 3)
and should be adjusted to the rear-most position. If they are used on components number 1
and 3 the throughput of the blender will be reduced.
To install the stroke limiter, drop it into the double slot on top of the gate assembly and
secure it in place with the button head screw that is provided. Be sure to use the lock washer
to prevent the stroke limiter from coming loose.
