10. MAINTENANCE
Maintenance must be carried out by expert operators and in accordance with current regulations
concerning safety in the workplace and matters relating to environmental risks. Do not discard polluting
liquids like lubricants, replaced parts and maintenance residues into the environment.
Never improvise repairs!
Before working on the unit disconnect its power supply, being careful to be protected against inadvertent
reactivation, and in any case against the mobility of the components of the unit itself. Wait until the unit
reaches the ambient temperature.
Inform staff working in the area or nearby, by duly signalling the areas nearby and preventing access.
Put in place all necessary measures for environmental safety (dust, gas…).
The precise machining of the unit's internal components ensures correct operation with minimum maintenance. In general
the following rules are valid: periodic check of the unit external cleanliness, especially in the areas more involved in the
cooling process; periodic check for any leaks of lubricant, especially in the areas of the sealing rings; check and cleaning of
the vent cap hole. Check periodically by means of the specific level indicators the correct quantity of lubricant. If topping
up is necessary, use the same brand and type of lubricant as the one already used, or in any case compatible with it. Use
oils and greases recommended by Motovario. During an oil change follow the above mentioned recommendations.
Do not hesitate to replace unreliable components. Replace worn parts only with original spare parts. Using non-original
spare parts can compromise the operation of the unit, and also voids the warranty. For the request of the components,
follow the instructions given in the spare parts section of the specific unit.
1. Keep the unit in good running order with periodic checks of vibration and noise, absorption and voltage, wear of
friction surfaces, lubricant leaks, gaskets, bolted gaskets for wear, deformation and corrosion and restore replace as
necessary;
2. Keep the unit clean of dust and process residues (do not use solvents or other products incompatible with the
materials of construction, and do not aim high pressure jets of water directly at the unit).
For the units used in AGGRESSIVE ENVIRONMENTS AND FOOD INDUSTRIES:
In the event of accidental damage to the paint, restore it as soon as possible by using the repair kit available on request.
Following the above mentioned rules ensures the operation of the unit and the required safety level.
