are when electrical power is removed and when a stop switch is pushed. To make sure the ma-
chine operates safely, do this test at the intervals given in the maintenance schedule:
1. If the machine contains goods, remove them.
2. Start a wash formula. Move forward in the sequence to a drain (see the first note below). You
must do the test when the cylinder turns at drain speed. Wash speed is too slow. Extract speed
will cause deterioration of the brake components that is not necessary.
3. Look at the cylinder through the door glass or site glass.
4. Push the Emergency Stop switch (
). Confirm that the cylinder stops in the time appropriate
for the type of machine:
• Divided cylinder and Staph Guard
®
—4 seconds.
• Open cylinder—10 seconds
NOTE: On most machines, there is no manual output for drain speed. If your machine
has a drain speed output in Manual Mode, use it instead of a formula.
If the cylinder does not stop in the given time, repairs are necessary. Speak to your dealer or Mil-
nor

. This is not routine maintenance.
CAUTION: Misuse of the mechanical brake during automatic operation — will
cause brake components to wear out quickly.
� During operation, always permit the cylinder to stop automatically.
NOTE: In automatic operation, the drive motor, inverter, and resistors stop the cylinder.
If the cylinder does not stop in the correct length of time, an error message occurs. If this
condition continues, repairs are necessary. Speak to your dealer or Milnor
