10.1.2 Cleaning the Feed Hopper
Fig. 25: Cleaning the feed hopper
Unscrew the three M4 oval-head screws (G1).
Pull the splashback protection (G) slightly backwards, then remove it upwards.
Clean the feed hopper (F) and the splashback protection (G) with alcohol, petrol or normal
household detergent. The splashback protection (G) is also dishwasher suitable.
Alternatively, the feed hopper (F) can also be cleaned with compressed air.
Risk of injury caused by rotating rotor
Operation without safety equipment
− If the device is operated without safety equipment (splash-back protection
or fill hopper), items of clothing or parts of the body can get into the
grinding chamber. The rotating rotor can then cause injuries.
• Never operate the device without the safety equipment.
10.2 Wear
The grinding tools may become worn, depending on the frequency of the grinding operation and
the sample material. The rotor and the grinding sets should be regularly checked for wear and
replaced if necessary.
Likewise, all existing sealing gaskets (of grinding tools and in the device) should be checked for
wear regularly and replaced if necessary.
