Regular care
Regular care of the machine must be carried out at least once per
week. This prevents malfunctions and signs of wear.
Any abnormalities detected during regular care must be reported to
the supervisor! The supervisor must immediately initiate rectification
or maintenance, or notify Rühle Service!
Care schedule:
a)
Disassemble the machine according to the cleaning instruc-
tions. Check for any parts moving with difficulty, material
abrasion or other signs of wear and tear.
b)
Sharpen the cut-off knives with the knife sharpener and
check for any chipped blades and other damage.
c)
Sharpen the grid knives in the knife levels with the knife
sharpener on both sides and check them for any chipped
blades and other damage.
Grid knives must be resharpened at least every 50 work-
ing hours on a slip-resistant underlay using only little
pressure and a Rühle knife sharpener!
d)
Check the slider (chamber closure) and its guide rollers for
damages and abrasion; remove sharp edges!
e)
Check the guide rails of the slider (chamber closure) in the
machine and the grid frame; remove sharp edges!
f)
Check the rollers of the eccentric shafts (drive shaft for the
knife level) and of all grid frames:

For easy running and axial play!
