  • Page 28: Preventive Maintenance

    It is important to understand that these maintenance schedules are minimum recommendations. Highlight Industries cannot possibly know, evaluate or advise the various trades in all schedules of periodic maintenance. Because of this, Highlight Industries has not undertaken such tasks. Accordingly, anyone who maintains or services a case sealer machine must first satisfy himself/herself as to the schedules of preventive maintenance based on cycling operation and environmental locations.
  • Page 29 Cleaning should be done approximately once every month, more often if the environment is dusty. A damp (not wet) cloth may be used to remove build-up that a vacuum will not remove. Lubrication The drive motor(s) and machine bearings are permanently lubricated and do not require additional lubricant.
