insufficient grease.

Nozzles and Strainer
Flush out strainer periodically and inspect spray nozzles for proper water
delivery and pattern. Since water quality varies, a monthly inspection, for the first
year of operation is recommended, in order to determine a maintenance schedule.
On a Food Quality RotoClone W, special attention should be paid to the spray
nozzles and areas where there are quick opening access doors. These areas often
require more frequent cleaning. It is recommended that a preventative
maintenance schedule be developed specific to each W RotoClone.

RotoClone Inlet (Arr. A)
Open inspection door at RotoClone inlet connection and remove any
accumulation in the inlet at the border line of the wet and dry section. The
frequency of cleaning varies for each installation and must be determined by
frequent inspection when RotoClone is first placed in service. Clean out before
accumulation obstructs one-tenth of cross section area or inlet connection. Clean
sludge from RotoClone inlet door before closing.
