•
To keep the machine in perfect working condition it is very important that you
clean off any dust on the cork,
•
Use a brush or compressed air to remove any cork residue that may
accumulate in the moving seat of the prisms,
•
Keep the work area clean and free of any material that could obstruct
corking operations,
•
Keep the surrounding area clean; in particular, make sure that the area is
free from oil and grease or other materials that could make the floor slippery,
•
Use lithium grease to lubricate the gear shafts,
•
Use grease or neutral food grade Teflon solids or spray to lubricate internal
head movements (prisms, gibs) coming into contact with corks.
Check that:
