GENERAL MAINTENANCE

CLEANING
It is essential to keep the equipment clean to ensure a
proper use and durability of the set. A thorough clean
must be done periodically, especially in areas exposed
to dirt that may be damaged such as gears, connectors,
switches, etc.
Do not use high-pressure cleaning systems, they can
damage the product.
CONTROLS AND SELECTORS
Due to the intense and continuous use of mobile ele-
ments such as commands and switches, periodically
examine its proper operating.
There may be failures in micro-switches and wiring, ins-
pect the attachments and the electrical or mechanical
connections that may exist.
GREASE
Generally, every moving part should be greased. Our
products leave the factory completely greased and lu-
bricated. However, it is possible that the elements are
degreased over time and the use of the product, either
by lubrication loss or dirt. Clean and grease periodica-
lly the affected areas according to the manufacturer's
specifications.
Check for loose, missing or worn parts. Perio-dically
examine every moving element to make sure that com-
ponents are tighten.
MAKE SURE TO KEEP THESE AREAS FREE OF WATER AND HUMIDITY.
TAKE SPECIAL CARE NOT TO WET THEM WHILE WASHING THE SET.

WEAR AREAS
Inspecting regularly on the system compo-nents for
signs of wear is a preventive measure that can reduce
breakdowns. Check possible lubricant leakages, groo-
ves or bearing in poor condition.
MECHANICAL FIXING
We generally call mechanical fixing elements to the
components used to fix the product as a whole, mainly
screws and derivatives.
To some terms of use, due to vibrations or impacts cer-
tain elements may lose their tightening torque or fixing
properties.
Periodically review that there are no loose elements,
especially on moving parts of the set. Please note and
always respect the recommended tightening torques.

This manual does not include procedures for all parts.
Qualified service personnel should replace cables, swit-
ches and certain mecha-nical parts without step-by-
step procedures.

commercial department for information about orde-
