So what are your current drying parameters? can you adjust temp and time? is this a batch cleaner that may have some shadowing from the way it is loaded causing hot air to not hit certain boards? Russ

You should have a a gauge on your wave that you could convert to PPM. Save you a few bucks and headaches.

We use the Tribol 930/100 Synthetic oil. Also, check the drive motor chain on the output end of the oven. I have seen the set screws back out of the drive gears, and it will kind of pop at times while running.
