10.6 Cleaning
We recommend cleaning the machine immediately after every use with a gentle
water jet in order to maintain its value.
To facilitate cleaning, fold up the protective grids in the hopper (see chapter 10.5:
Opening the protective grid in the hopper, page 115).
The following instructions must be observed for cleaning:
Clean the outlets and the area of the slide guide from below only.
Only clean oiled machines at washing points fitted with an oil separator.
When cleaning with high-pressure water, never aim the jet directly at warning
signs, electrical equipment, hydraulic components, and sliding bearings.
After cleaning, we recommend treating the dry machine, especially the coated
spreader vanes and stainless steel parts, with an environmentally friendly anti-
corrosion agent.
A suitable polishing kit can be ordered from authorised dealers for use in treating
rust spots.

Use the adjustment lever on the machine. See figure 8.2, page 86.
