MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

Cleaning

IMPORTANT!

Turn off the motor. Disconnect the power cable and place it so that it cannot be connected by mistake.

The area around the machine must be free of dirt in order to minimize the risk of slipping.

Use suitable personal protective equipment.

•When cleaning the machine there is a risk of getting dirt and harmful substances in the eyes, for example.

•Dirt and harmful substances can be released from the machine when using high pressure equipment.

•High-pressure jetting using water or air can permeate into the skin and cause serious injury. Never aim a high-pressure jet towards the skin.

Cleaning method

The cleaning method varies depending on type of contaminants and how dirty the machine is. A mild degreasing agent can be used. Avoid skin contact.

NB! High-pressure washing and compressed air should be used with extreme caution, incorrect use can damage the machine.

Bear the following in mind when using high- pressure washing:

•High-pressure washing with the wrong nozzle or high pressure can damage electrical components, electric cables and hydraulic hoses.

•The high pressure jet can damage seals and lead to water and dirt permeating into the machine, result- ing in serious damage.

•Stickers can be washed away.

•The surface Þnish can be damaged.

Cleaning of components

There are a number of components that require spe- cial consideration when cleaning.

Hydraulic tank

Place a plastic bag over the tank’s air Þlter and seal it with a rubber band to avoid water getting into the tank.

Cooler

Allow the cooler to cool down before cleaning. Use compressed air to clean the air Þns. If necessary, use high-pressure washing and degreasing agent. Incor- rect use of high-pressure washing or compressed air can distort the cooler’s Þns and thereby impair the cooling capacity.

•Max. pressure 100 Bar.

•Spray directly towards the cooler, in parallel with the Þns.

•Keep a distance of about 40 cm between the cooler and the nozzle.

Electrical components

Clean electric motor, electric cabinet, terminals and other electrical components with a cloth or with compressed air. Do not spray water at electrical com- ponents. Dry the remote control with a damp cloth. Never use high-pressure washing. Blow clean inter- nally using compressed air.

After washing

•Lubricate all the machine’s lubrication points.

•Blow electrical terminals dry using compressed air.

•Exercise caution when the machine is started after washing. If any components have been damaged due to moisture, the machine’s movements can be defective.
