F - MAINTENANCE

1 - Care

For a long and trouble-free life, the machine requires a minimum level of care and maintenance.
The frequency of such maintenance is indicated for production in one work shift per day. For higher
production rates, increase the maintenance frequencies accordingly.
Your maintenance department could photocopy these pages to track maintenance frequencies and times
and the operations completed (tick the appropriate box).
All maintenance must be carried out by specialised personnel who have read and
understood this manual.
Electricity technician
Qualified operator with the ability to work in normal conditions on electrical parts for
regulation, maintenance and repair.
Mechanical technician
Specialised technician authorised to carry out complex and exceptional mechanical
operations.
CAUTION: While handling sheets, take the necessary precautions to avoid impacts on the
machine and the rolling tracks.
Impacts on any of the elements can lead to squareness faults or the malfunctioning of the
electrical shaft and therefore incorrect cutting of the workpieces.
BEFORE ANY MAINTENANCE OPERATION, REMEMBER TO:
• Switch off and lock out the electricity supply.
• Switch off, flush and lock out the gas and compressed air supplies.
CAUTION: All work at heights (maintenance, troubleshooting etc.) on the machine must be
carried out with appropriate personnel lifting equipment.
IMPORTANT: "Do not remove the Nylstop nuts from the fastening screws of the guards:
they keep them captive"
