6.Operation and daily maintenance

6.1Starting and stopping

The start and stop functions are controlled by a push-button on the electrical cabinet.

NOTE: The granulator should not be stopped until it has finished grinding all the material in the hopper and cutter housing. Any remaining material can slow down the rotor when it is re- started which can overload the motor and trigger the overload protector.

/paus/pulsrelä/: pause/pulse relay

6.2Inspection

There should not be any material in the granulator when the inspection is to be carried out.

6.2.1Daily inspection

Emergency stop. Check the emergency stop function by starting the granulator and then stopping it using the emergency stop button. The emergency stop is reset by turning the emergency stop button in the direction of the arrow. The machine can then be re-started by pressing “START”.

6.2.2Weekly inspection

Cables. Inspect all cabling in the machine to see that there is no wear or other damage. For reasons of personal protection, damaged parts should be replaced immediately.

Safety switches. There are 2 safety switches, 1 for the locking clamp by the screw feed, and 1 for the screenbox:

Screenbox: Check the safety switch by loosening the granule bin as described in chapter 5.2. It should not be possible to start the granulator until the hoisting mechanism's bar has been set in a vertical position after the granule bin has been put into place.

Hopper: Open the hopper as described in chapter 5.2, but close and lock the granule bin. Check the safety switch to the hopper by starting the granulator. It should not be possible to start the granulator until the hopper is closed and the locking clamp is back in position.
