Cleaning the machine

.02
The required cleaning cycle for the machine depends on the following factors:
O Single or multi-shift operation
O Dust formation caused by the workpieces
Optimal cleaning instructions can therefore only be determined on a case-by-case basis.
Fig. 10 - 01
These maintenance intervals are based on an average running time of a single
shift operation. Shorter maintenance intervals are recommended for increased
running times.
Disconnect the machine from the electricity mains for all cleaning work by
shutting off the main switch or removing the mains plug! Risk of injury due to
accidental machine start-up!
Maintenance and Care
The following tasks are recommended
during single shift operation to avoid
operational errors:
O Tilt machine backwards.
O Clean the hooks and hook area daily, or
more often during continuous operation.
Return the machine to its
upright position using both
hands!
Danger of injury by crushing
between the edge of the
machine and the table top.
