Cleaning / Washing The Machine

Anytime a machine or component is washed down with a hose or high pressure wash system,
there is the possibility that water or other contaminants can be forced into bearings, seals, or
other components.
Ensure that after cleaning the machine is completely lubricated immediately, especially in the
areas that water or contaminants may have entered. These areas include the vertical and
horizontal swivel pins and bushings and cylinder pins if the fittings are not plugged with a pipe
plug. Plugs indicate a maintenance free bearing. Refer to Section 8 for complete lubrication
specifications.
The complete machine must be given a weekly cleaning. Daily cleaning will be required if
material is adhering to the drum.
Protect all electrical components and control panels against entry of
water or steam when using high pressure cleaning methods.
Do not use harsh cleansers which may damage painted surfaces.
After washing, run the engine until it is warm. This will help to dry out
engine components and electrical connections.
Lubricate all grease fittings immediately following the cleaning of the
machine.
