Checking/Cleaning
Coolant System
Coolant is a potent and extremely poisonous solution to humans and animals. Use personal protective equipment when handling coolant to prevent infections or poisoning.
A screen in the splash pan keeps large swarf under the bedway where it can be removed dur- ing daily cleaning. However, smaller swarf washes down into the coolant tank where it is separated from the pump by a wall inside the tank. If this swarf builds up higher than the wall, then it over- flows into the pump chamber and clogs the pump. Regular cleaning of the reservoir will ensure the swarf never flows over the separating wall.
A small amount of coolant is lost during normal operation. Check the coolant tank daily and fill it if necessary. In addition, coolant eventually becomes rancid or contaminated with dangerous microbes, which makes it unsuitable for further use. When this happens, drain, clean, and refill the tank.
Checking Coolant Tank
When checking the coolant tank, the goal is to make sure there is enough coolant, the swarf level in the first chamber of the tank is not too high, and the coolant has not become contaminated.
