AGFA Printer manual Engine is NOW Ready for a Long Stand Still

8.4. Long Stand Still

This procedure must be carried out:

-If the engine’s “Stand Still Time” is 1 week or longer…

-If the vacuum pressure is going to be closed down…

SHUTDOWN -- preparing the engine:

-Move the carriage to the Purge position.

-Flush cleaning solution through the heads:

-First purge the 4 right heads (Lc, Lm, W1, W2), close them,

and in the second stage, purge the remaining 4 left heads (K, C, M, Y).

-Finally, open the 4 right heads again, and purge all 8 heads together now. By doing so, you’ll have the most optimal cleaning pressure.

-Leave all ink valves in the “S” position, set the Solution valve to “I”.

-On the Engine’s Control Panel, perform a “Head Lift-Up”.

(the carriage will go to the highest position)

-Clean the Head Base Plate with a cloth

-Set the Vacuum Pressure to “0”. (Negative Pressure)

-Mount the “Capping Plate” underneath the Head Base Plate.

-use a plastic foil to wrap around the capping plate (new foil every time)

-place a support between the capping plate and the grid.

-bring down the carriage by turning manually, until it’s fixed.

(use some packing material as support)

-Push the emergency stop, and leave it pushed in! (restart-safety) Shut down the engine’s PC.

-Switch OFF the main power, by using the main-switch in the engine’s fuse box.

-Turn off the compressed air.
