INSTALLATION, OPERATION & MAINTENANCE

 (continued)

Maintenance & Repair

In order to obtain appropriate capture efficiency of the suction hood, clean its surface 
and the inlet wire-mesh net from the deposited dusts and impurities. In case of welding 
dusts, additionally – sprinkle the hood with an anti-spattering liquid to avoid adhesing 
the welding chippings.

In case when the extraction arm is losing its self-supporting properties – undertake the 
adjustment of its frictional brakes (to regain self-locking function of the joints).

Lubricate the swivel every 3 months using solid grease (lubrication nipple is located in 
the swivel flange).

After 1 operational year, submit the device to a technical revision and repair or replace the 
faulty element.

Clean the internal surfaces of the extraction conduits (segment pipes) from the deposited 
impurities. Revision frequency depends on the operational intensity. It is recommended to 
examine the pollution state of the discharge conduits once in three months.

Transportation & Storage

VentBoss extraction arms have to be stored and transported in partly disassembled state and 
in special packages. The devices ought to be stored in dry and well ventilated rooms. During 
the transport / reloading protect the device from scratching, indents and pay attention that 
the markings and labels would not get detached/obliterated.

Warranty

The period of warranty for the purchased device is indicated in the “Card of Warranty”.  The 
warranty does not comprise:

•   defects and damages arising during the incorrect use and in application that is 

inconsistent with the present manual

•   mechanical and electrical damages being caused during improper storage and transport 

or incorrect mainte nance

•   structural modifications, or changes / adaptations introduced by User on one’s own
