4.1 Introduction
Maintenance is one of the most important operations among those carried out on machines.
It is necessary to do a methodical, systematic, and conscientious maintenance programme that will make your machine work
properly and in safe conditions.
Good maintenance lengthens the life of the machine and delays its substitution.
4.2 Safety Norms
WARNING!
To carry out certain maintenance operations, it is necessary to access the inside of the
tipper body; make sure that it is empty and clean to avoid slips and falls. Wear personal
protective equipment (PPE).
ALL MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS MUST BE CARRIED OUT WITH THE MACHINE
IDLE AND PLANT DEACTIVATED.
Put out the “Machine under maintenance” sign.
The manufacturer denies any responsibility.
Do not carry out “DIY” type interventions; the machines are dangerous and must be treated by competent and trained
personnel.
Any replacement of components must be carried out using exclusively original spare parts so as not to compromise the
machine optimal functioning and safety.
4.3 Instructions on washing the machine
Washing must be carried out in a proper structure complying with laws in force on safety and environmental respect. Before
proceeding with washing, position the machine in a stable manner and carefully inspect the working area (if there are
people, objects or animals). Wear personal protective equipment.
WARNING!
Do not point the high-pressure jet too long on areas containing electric components.
WARNING!
Do not use detergents that are detrimental to health and to machine components.
