7.1 PRELIMINARY NOTE ON MAINTENANCE
INFORMATION:
before carrying out any maintenance, start all safety devices provided and check
if it is necessary to inform the staff operating around and people close to the
area. In particular, it is recommended to adequately signal the adjacent areas
and to prevent anyone from approaching all the devices that, if started, could
cause unexpected damage and harm to people.
DANGER - WARNING:
carry out the cleaning and maintenance operations when the bar feeder is off.
Regular cleaning and maintenance are essential to ensure a correct operation and a long bar
feeder service life.
A regular and effective cleaning of the bar feeder, its accessories and working area, is
recommended as it increases the operator safety as well.
Do not use petrol or solvents which may damage transparent parts, cable sheaths, etc.
The outer surface of the bar feeder IEMCA is protected with epoxy resin and polyester paint
which ensure product lastingness and resistance to weather conditions that may occur in
mechanic workshop.
Anyway, in order to preserve the features of the paint, it is necessary to follow some important
advice:
· avoid direct exposure to UV radiation (the paint will rapidly lose its brightness, the colour
will fade and it will no longer protect from oxidation);
· in case of dirty (though not greasy) parts it is recommended to clean using a damp cloth;
· in case of stubborn dirt, clean the surfaces using a soft cloth, without exerting strong
pressure, and avoid using products containing:
- pure alcohol
- paint thinners (synthetic, nitro, acrylic, epoxy, polyurethane thinners, etc.)
- acetone
- solvents
- soda
INFORMATION:
oxidation can damage metal parts and electric equipment.
