During the course of operation the machine can build-up particles and debris in its various components.
Foreign debris may contaminate the machine and even the product being packaged, it may also impact
the functionality of the machine over time. It is recommended to thoroughly clean and sanitize the
machine after each operation cycle has ended.
LUBRICATION
Use Lithium #2 Grease for lubricating gears & shafts mentioned in the checklist.
STORAGE
When storing the machine for a long periods of time, disconnect the air and power and
clean the machine thoroughly. After using the machine after prolonged periods of
inactivity, it is recommended that the machine be tested and adjusted. All the electrical
components and their connections should be thoroughly checked before powering on.
Do not store the machine in a corrosive environment.
CLEANING
Please keep the following in mind before cleaning the machine…
1. Certain machines will be specified as being able to be washed down with water, unless otherwise
noted the exteriors and interiors of machines are not to be exposed to water.
2. Always use clean materials when wiping machines in order to avoid cross contamination.
3. Remaining residue on the stainless steel from cleaning products can cause corrosion due to any salt
or chlorine content. Please keep the machine’s surfaces as dry and clean as possible between each
use. Unlike other materials, it is not possible to “wear out” stainless steel by excessive cleaning.
4. Be sure to wipe stainless steel in the direction of its grain finish lines for the best cleaning results. The
metal’s grain is readily visible to the naked eye.
5. Do not use scouring pads/mesh cloths or metal tools such as scrapers or steel wool, as this can
damage and contaminate the stainless steel surface of the machine and cause rust.
6. Cleaners with synthetic ingredients, acids, chlorine, bleach and other caustic substances can lead to
surface rust and discoloration, and eventual failure of the stainless steel. Halogen salts such as
fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine and astatine are highly corrosive.
Failure to comply with the above criteria may result in
voiding the machine’s warranty.
