Cleaning the automatic feeder
You must clean all parts of the automatic feeder that come into contact with liquid or powder
animal feed.
The type of feed you are using also plays a role here. For example, raw milk contains more
germs than pasteurized milk. Therefore, if you are feeding raw milk, you must clean the feeder
more often than if you are using pasteurized milk.
Note:
If you have installed additional devices such as an additive dispenser, you must also
follow the cleaning instructions in the operating manual for these devices.
Cleaning methods
You can use a range of cleaning methods, which you can also combine:
•
You can clean some parts, such as the mixer, using programs that run automatically.
•
You can clean some parts, such as the heat exchanger, using programs that are started
manually.
•
You can clean parts such as the powder container manually.
Remember:
•
You must observe all safety warnings in the safety data sheet for the cleaning agent you are
using.
•
You must always wear the protective gear, such as protective goggles and gloves, specified
in the safety data sheet for the cleaning agent you are using.
•
Undiluted cleaning agent may not be drained into the ground water or sewage system. Ob-
serve the recommendations in the safety data sheet for your cleaning agent and contact
