9-001 Maintenance Plan
Maintenance work should only be done after the main switch on the electric motor is on 0 (turned off) and the pneuma-
tic air ductwork system has been disconnected to the machine.
Daily:
Before beginning work: Check all safety devices to make sure they function properly and are complete.
After work is completed: The machine should be secured against unauthorized operation (with a padlock). Clean
wood shavings off the machine.
Weekly, or as necessary:
Drain the filter-pressure reducer by pushing the yellow plastic component on the filter-pressure
reducer upward. Then disconnect the machine from the pneumatic air ductwork system (semi-automatic drain).
Monthly:
Clean the guide bars and lubricate with commercial grease.
Check the drill distance scale by sample drilling. Correct, according to point 8-001.
Check to see if the side stops are operational. Clean, if necessary.
Check the position of the insertion dies. Correct, according to point 8-005.
Yearly:
The Ecopress has proved its durability in many fatigue tests. But in order to ensure many years of smooth and
problem-free operation for your Ecopress, we recommend having the machine serviced every 1 to 3 years by an
experienced Grass Customer Service Technician or by a trained Grass Distributor.
