Device concept The clamping device on the front of the Robacta Reamer V Twin holds the gas nozzle in place during cleaning. A cleaning cutter is used to clean the nozzle. After the cleaning pro- cess, a parting agent is applied to the inside and front of the gas nozzle through the spray nozzle that is fixed in the middle of the cleaning motor.
Warning notices The Robacta Reamer V Twin is fitted with warning notices and a rating plate. The warning on the device notices and rating plate must not be removed or painted over.
