WARNING:
The maintenance operations described in this chapter
should be performed only by qualified personnel who understand the
processes and are familiar with the safety measures involved.
6.1. INTRODUCTION:
This chapter contains the procedures involved in the maintenance of
the EC equipment. These maintenance procedures guarantee safe
operation and increase machine life. Before starting a maintenance
operation, read chapter 1.
“Safety” carefully.
General recommendations for proper maintenance:
Keep the tank as full of adhesive as possible. This will reduce the
formation of charred adhesive
on the tank’s inner walls.
Keep the tank cover closed. (Any contamination in the tank will
increase the possibility of low performance. Humidity, dirt and charred
adhesive are the main causes of nozzle obstruction).
Use cheesecloth to remove material leaking from the seals and other
connectors when the machine is hot, but not in operation.
Empty and clean the system completely when there are frequent
obstructions, due to dirt and char.
Make sure that you are properly protected and follow all pertinent
safety measures:
1.
Switch off the air at the mains.
2.
Switch off the main switch.
3.
Lock and tag out the main switch.
4.
Make sure power is off.
5.
Follow all applicable safety standards.
