MAINTENANCE
General Clean Up
Note: Follow proper Lockout / Tagout procedures prior to cleaning or performing
maintenance on any part of the machine.
On a daily basis use an air-hose to blow-off the dust and wood chips that accumulate in,
on and around the machine.
The machine operator or clean-up person is closer to dangerous operating mechanisms
of the machine during clean up than during production – extra care should be taken
during this time.
Do NOT clean with flammable or combustible materials.
Follow applicable codes and standards with regards to:
Ventilation and monitoring of work area for excessive accumulation of hazardous
vapors
Wearing personal protective equipment for handling materials
Using proper procedure for disposing of all waste materials
