Ejector Side Installation STEP 3: With the ear plates installed on the standard mold base, slide it into the ejector side of the adapter frame prior to installation in the molding machine. Now clamp the standard mold base in the adapter frame using the clamps on the end of the frame. STEP 4: Measure the total shut height of the ear plates, standard mold base and adapter frame. Adjust the machine platens open an additional 1/16" to 3/16" to allow the assembly to slide between the platens and into the cavity side of the adapter frame. STEP 5: Lift the ejector half of the adapter frame with the standard mold base installed using a MUD balanced lifting bar. Slide the standard mold base and ejector half adapter frame into the cavity half adapter frame already installed in the machine (Step 1). STEP 6: Close the machine to clamp the mold halves together. STEP 7: Clamp the standard mold base adapter frame ejector half to the machine platen. STEP 8: To remove the ear plate equipped standard mold base from the adapter frame, unclamp the four (4) ear plate hold down clamps located on the tops of the adapter frame rails. Then open the machine approximately 1/16" to 3/16". STEP 9: If bolts are to be used through the adapter frame clamp plate, remove the standard mold base from the frame and install the bolts. STEP 10: If the adapter frame is bolted through the clamp plate to the platen, the clamps (Step 7) can now be removed. STEP 11: THE MUD Quick-Change adapter frame is now ready to accept an unlimited number of standard mold bases equipped with companion ear plates.
