6.4 Cleaning
Clean when changing, monthly or at least once every 300 hours of operation.
WARNING! Granulate and plastic rests on the floor can cause risk of
slipping!
Risk of slipping depending of granulate and plastic rests, is especially haz-
ardous during cleaning, when the cutter house door is opened. Be careful!
Use a vacuum cleaner when cleaning the granulator.
Do not use compressed air and a blow nozzle.
Because then you must also clean the surroundings, after cleaning the granulator.
NOTE: Never use help when cleaning the granulator.
Carry out the cleaning alone and observe caution!
The risk of injuring fingers or hands increase if two or more persons are used to
clean the granulator.
Be careful when the hopper and the cutter house door are opened.
The knives are then accessible, they are sharp and could cause personal
injury.
Always use protective goggles and protective gloves during cleaning!
Ensure so that no material enters the safety switches!
Read section 6.1 “Start and stop” and section “Stop”.
Wait until the granulator and material conveyor system are empty of granulate.
