Maintenance 7
Applying the anti-corrosion protection
Bear in mind the following instructions as you apply the anti-corrosion
protection:
• Carefully cover all fastening surfaces and components to which the
anti-corrosion protection may not be applied
– see "Components coated with anti-corrosive wax" on page 7-85.
• Apply Elaskon products with a brush or commercially available spray
equipment.
• The protective ELASKON coating can be removed with
an ELASKON cleanser as required.
• Spots are difficult to remove from clothing.
• Affix a “Wet paint!” or a similar sign to newly coated machines.
Treatment of oxidized surfaces
If in spite of all precautionary measures some components should be
affected by corrosion (oxidized), treat the oxidized area follows:
Electric connections
• Remove the remaining protective wax at the oxidized area with an
Elaskon cleanser.
• Treat the affected areas with an oxide cleanser, for example with
Elaskon Multi 80.
• Disconnect plug-and-socket connection A.
• Apply Elaskon Multi 80 to the contact surfaces of the plug-and-socket
connection.
• Establish the connection.
• Apply/spray the anti-corrosion protection onto the electric connection
from all sides.
For sheet metal parts
• Remove the remaining protective wax at the oxidized area with an
Elaskon cleanser.
• Make all affected areas "blank", i.e. remove all remaining corrosion
and paint coating from the affected area down to the bare material.
otherwise the protective coating will not adhere properly.
• Clean the affected area with a cleaning solvent, and
then apply a 2-component prime coating.
• Paint affected areas with a 2-component paint coating.
• Then preserve the area with the anti-corrosion protection.
