8.1 Grinding chamber
NOTICE!
Hold the crushing jaw firmly! The part weighs approx.
6.5 kg.
To access the crushing chamber, it is first necessary to completely disas-
semble the fixed crushing jaw.
To do so, open the front cover. Position the guide pin horizontally to
unlatch it.
Pull out the guide pin and remove the crushing jaw. (See
‘Assembling the crushing plates’ on page 29).
Clean the crushing chamber with a vacuum cleaner and brush or blow it
out with compressed air, if necessary. (Attention: projected grinding
stock)
Harder residues of sample material on the crushing plates can be
removed with a wire brush. Afterwards, wipe out the crushing chamber
with alcohol (corrosion protection).
