Preface
General notes
The maintenance activities described in this document essentially pertain only to the
machine. Maintenance activities of auxiliary units (e.g., bar loading magazines,
extraction systems) are described in the documentation of the specific manufacturer.
The maintenance and servicing activities must absolutely be observed. Failure to
conduct maintenance and servicing in accordance with these instructions
(especially not at the respective intervals) rules out any claims for damages. This
does not apply if it is proved that the non-compliance with the maintenance and
servicing activities is unrelated to the defect. Normal wear and tear, especially of
components such as bearings and seals, is not a defect. These components are
therefore excluded from the warranty. It is recommended to keep a written log of all
maintenance activities carried out.
Maintenance intervals
The maintenance intervals are given based on the operating hours
counter / “Hydraulic system On” operating condition.
Maintenance intervals displayed on the controller (iXpanel)
Depending on the respective machine type and the different
controller types, a corresponding message is issued on the controller
when a maintenance interval is reached. The maintenance
instructions stored on the respective controller provide information
(maintenance log) explaining the service and maintenance activities
to be performed.
Cleaning of the machine
Do not clean the machine with compressed air
- Raised dirt particles may cause breathing difficulty or injury
(especially of the sensory organs). Furthermore, raised dirt
particles or chips may reach spots where they cause technical
problems.
Do not use cotton waste for cleaning
- When cleaning with cotton waste, fibers or thread can get loose
causing safety problems.
Solvents
- Do not use highly volatile solvents such as petroleum spirit,
trichloroethylene or similar cleaning agents. These cleaners may
damage the seals, which can lead to safety problems.
Pressure washers
- Do not clean the machine with a pressure washer. Cleaning with
a pressure washer results in strong corrosion. Furthermore,
bearings may be degreased and seals may become leaking,
which can lead to safety problems.
