Version 4.0 (1.99) Fibrosampler - Page 13-12
Note: Consistent pressure must be maintained against the Fibrocomb
while gauging clearances. This will eliminate variation in comb position
resulting from play between the Fibrocomb and the Fibrocomb holder.
5.5 Maintenance
The Fibrosampler is designed to provide years of trouble-free service.
Periodic checking and, if required, adjustment of combholder to drum
clearance is necessary to ensure consistent sample preparation.
The sample plate clearance should be checked on a monthly basis or
when there are unexplainable changes in the beard size. Refer to the
Installation section above for details.
5.5.1 Cleaning the
Card Cloth
The card cloth will become loaded
with fiber stripped from the beard
with continued use. A brush for
cleaning the card cloth is supplied
with the Fibrosampler 192. It is
recommended that the card cloth
be cleaned after four to six sample
beards have been prepared
and/or each time the sample
material is changed.
