MAINTENANCE
4. Remove the filter cartridge and clean it, if necessary (see the section
‘Filter maintenance’).
5. Reassemble the filter without the cartridge.
6. Pump a minimum of one tank through any distributor output.
7. Remove the filter and attach it to the corresponding cartridge. Reinstall
it in the distributor.
8. Refill the tank with adhesive, wait for it to melt and continue working
as usual.
Warning: Whenever you handle the filter or any other element subject to
pressure, you must always perform a system depressurization first (see the
corresponding section)
Emptying the tank
During normal maintenance activities, it is recommended, and sometimes
necessary to empty the tank directly, without passing the adhesive through the
pump system.
In the case of the Micron 5, the tank does not have a pouring chute so, to
empty out the adhesive you need to wait until it has cooled and separate it
from the walls of the tank, making it easier to remove.
For the other models, empty the tank following these indications:
1. Keep the tank at working temperature.
2. Remove the tank cover and then its casing.
3. Lower the emptying chute attached to the tank and put a suitable
container in position.
4. Unscrew the plug and allow the adhesive to flow freely into the
container.
5. Once it is completely empty, clean the exit hole and chute of remains of
adhesive.
6. Put the plug back in position.
7. Raise the emptying chute and put the cover of the casing back in
position.
Warning: Use appropriate protective equipment for high temperatures.
