5. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS
5.1. GENERALITIES AND PRODUCTS FOR CLEANING
Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance operations, ensure that the mains switch is off and the supply plug is
disconnected from the mains.
Clean the equipment and the discs every day for optimal operation and life of the equipment.
The discs, the grid for cutting dices, and the plastic ejector, can be removed and washed under a warm water jet.
Clean the machine and the disc positions with a cloth or a sponge wet with warm water, remove all debris to ensure the
discs seat properly.
Open the cover and loosen the 2 pins as shown in figure 6. Remove the cover and wash under a water jet.
(Figure 6)
Clean the surfaces with soap and water, alcohol, detergents without abrasives or substances based on chlorine or soda
(chlorine water, muriatic acid).
Never use abrasives, steel wool, or similar products as they may damage the finish and compromise product life.
5.2. FAILURE TO START
When the white pilot light on the panel in on, but the machine does not start, check to ensure that the handle and the
cover are closed. In the closed position, both the safety micro-switches are on; these safety micro-switches prevent the
unit from starting in unsafe conditions. In the case of unit failure, the unit should only be serviced by qualified
personnel.
5.3. LONG TERM STORAGE
For long term storage, disconnect the main wall switch and clean the machine and its accessories. Use white vaseline oil
(or similar products) to protect all the machine's elements.
These products, mainly made up of oily and detergent substances, and now available in spray cylinders for easy application,
preserve the glossy finish of the aluminum magnesium alloy, and prevent corrosion.
It is recommended to cover the machine with a nylon (or similar) cloth.
