completely. Grain swells when it is moistened and its removal may become
more difficult. Open chute slide, inspection covers and conveyor cover.
•
To clean machine only use clean running water or water with a cleaning
detergent additive with neutral pH.
•
Using pressure washer increases washing effectiveness, but particular care
must be taken during work. During washing washer nozzle may not be closer
than 50 cm from the surface being cleaned.
•

i.e. control valve, braking force regulator, brake cylinders, hydraulic cylinders,
pneumatic, electric and hydraulic plugs, lights, electrical connections,
information and warning decals, identification plates, flexible hoses of the
systems, hydraulic clutch, chain transmissions etc. Great water jet pressure
may damage these elements.

Do not direct water jet at individual trailer lubrication points
