GENERAL
This machine requires regular, periodic
cleaning to ensure reliable service. Shift and
daily cleaning can be performed by the
operator with a minimum of training.
Regular cleaning is important for the proper
operation and performance of the machine.
During operation there will be a normal buildup
of dirt, dust, and lubricants on various parts of
the machine. If using the Sharp SX™ with
Printer, ink rubbed off of printed film can also
build up.
The machine and areas directly adjacent to it
should be kept clean of debris as these can
create safety hazards for the operator and the
machine.
No cleaning should be performed unless these
safety precautions are thoroughly understood and
are adhered to without exception.
Clean machine surfaces during each pause in
production – NEVER while the machine is running.
Remove contaminants and debris, and use a clean,
soft lint-free cloth to wipe down the machine.
•
Inspect the machine to determine if there has
been an accumulation of dust or other
contamination. Clean if necessary.
•
ALWAYS SHUT OFF AND UNPLUG machine
power cord before cleaning or removing any
guards.
•
NEVER defeat any safety device or interlock on
the machine.
•
DO NOT use steel wool on machine surfaces.
Particles of steel wool may break off and cause
rusting or contaminate lubricated surfaces.
•
DO NOT allow wrenches, fittings or other
metallic objects to lie on machine surfaces
during production.
•
DO NOT use chlorine, ammonia, alkalis, acids,
or cleaning solutions that will damage metallic
machine surfaces, cause corrosion or
contaminate containers.
Do not spray the electrical components
of the machine with any liquid while
power is applied. Liquids on electrical
components can cause shorts,
damaging the components and causing
personal injury or death.
WARNING
Avoid hot surfaces. Do not service the
machine until the heated surfaces have
cooled after disconnecting power.
WARNING
Disconnect electrical power cords from
the machine prior to performing any
maintenance on machine.
WARNING
Do not attempt to clean the machine
while it is running. Cleaning the
machine while it is running can damage
the machine and cause severe personal
injury or death.
