Maintenance

• A dirty rail may interfere with the screw transport speed. Clean the rail with a

soft, clean cloth dipped in alcohol. If cleaning is difficult, remove the rail from the
machine and clean the rail. Replace the rail if needed.

• Before removing the rail from the machine, be sure to turn off the power supply

and take the screws out of the hopper.

Part Adjustments and Replacement

• The brush and main motor are wearable parts.
• When using a different diameter of screw, the following items must be replaced:

rail, escape, and passing plate. These parts may be ordered separately. The
replacement and adjustment procedures are described on the next page.

• When replacing any parts, a fine adjustment is required. Make these fine

adjustments by following the instructions in this manual. Before replacing any
parts, be sure to remove all the screws from the hopper.
