Litho Installation Instructions
These instructions apply to installing either a rotating or a static litho
in the rotating litho wheel.
Improper installation can result in damage
to the litho.
• Custom multi-colored lithos in metal holder:
See “Replacing a
Custom Litho” on page 6-11.
•
Etched pattern, no texture (LithoPatterns lithos):
the coated
side of the litho must face
away from
the lamp; face the uncoated
(glass) side toward the lamp.
•
Textured pattern (flat unglazed Art Glass, or Fusion Fire):
the textured side must face
away from
the lamp; face the non-
textured (smooth) side
toward
the lamp.
Replacing a Static Litho
1. Carefully handling the litho by its edges only, separate the wheel and
drop the litho into the retaining slot and between the two retaining
tabs as shown in Figure 6-8:
Figure 6-8. Location of the retaining tabs and slot that secure the static litho
in the rotating litho wheel.
2. Insert a flat blade screwdriver or other thin object between the two
parts of the rotating litho wheel to firmly seat the static litho in the
retaining slots shown in Figure 6-8.
Avoid touching any part of the
glass with your fingers.
a. Examine the gap between the two parts of the rotating litho wheel;
if the gap is uniform along the entire edge of the wheel, you are
finished.
b. If the gap is not uniform, continue seating the static litho until the
gap is uniform.
Figure 6-9. The gap between the two halves of the rotating litho wheel must
be uniform.
