It may become necessary from time to time to clean the dispenser rollers as they pick
up the ‘tack’ from plastic film. Clean off with kerosene.
At the end of the season the machine should be washed and cleaned.
Carefully clean all machine sections, inside and out. Dirt and foreign objects are likely
to draw moisture and cause rusting of steel components.
McHale
recommend that the
machine be blown down with an air line, as opposed to a pressure washer, due to the
dangers involved with pressure washing and to protect the overall paint work on the
machine. If, despite our advice, a pressure washer is used then take extreme caution
and operate from ground level only. Do not point pressurized water at or near electrical
components, pivots points, valves or bearings.
