Simple Machinery Maintenance & Tips
Checking of the setting of the Heel Cutter
Before commencing use of the heel cutter en-
sure the heel cutter guide is set to your opera-
tional requirements. The guard should be as
close to the cutter as possible, and lined flush to
the area of the cutter at between “3 and 6
O’clock”. To move the guard loosen the bolt to
the rear, adjust to suit and tighten.
Cleaning the Machine
Household proprietary cleaners are ok to use provided they are not bleach based. Multi-purpose
cleaning products should be acceptable and safe to use.
Bearings running hot?
Hot running of bearings can sometimes be an issue for the first week or two of regular use before
they settle down. If in doubt after this period please contact our Service Desk on 01536 517 070.
Brush Section
A monthly oil or WD40 between the tumble brush boss and the
machine body will aid the continued smooth performance of the
tumble section.
Standard recommend a service visit every 1-2
years to ensure the machine is running as best it
can, and the replacing of the filter bag approxi-
mately 24 months (or less if the machine is in a
particularly busy environment) to give optimum
performance. During the service our engineer will
check the noise and dust emissions. He will en-
sure all motors are running well and that the cut-
ters, bands and brushes are all fine. He will also
check the condition of the filter bag.
