Operators’ system pre startup checklist
Remove hose from air line.
Check and bleed air line.
Check filter condition and color before switching on system.
Change filter if more than 60% discolored.
Ensure that there are no cans between the input and output gates.
Power on system.
Power on conveyor; do not let cans though.
Clear any error messages, e.g., encoder.
Purge air in chamber
Let cans through to commence normal working activity.
