
When the operation of the pressing mechanism has been stabilized, it is possible to
replace the nozzle with the 10 mm diameter for 8 mm and later for 6 mm. The best
yield is achieved with the 6 mm nozzle. Proceed according to
Chapter 7.1.

The 4 mm nozzle may be used for oilseeds with the minimum fat content of 20 %, see
Chapter 7.1.

Attention!!! Turn off the heating; the heating sleeve is not designed for continuous
operation.
The entire process has to be carefully monitored during the first few hours of operation of
the new press.
5.5.2 Activating the press after a standstill under 5 minutes

Unscrew the nozzle and switch the press on.

When hard material has been pressed out, let the press run out (close the material
feed and wait until cakes stop falling out of the press), switch the press off and install
the nozzle.

Switch the press on without heating according to Chapter 5.5.

Check the operation, cakes output and oil flow until the press has been stabilized.
5.6 SHUT-DOWN OF THE PRESS
5.6.1 Shut-down of the press for a short period of time (under 5 minutes)
The press must be emptied before the screw press is switched off. The cakes harden
immediately after the press has been switched off, thus preventing a trouble-free start-up.
Proceed according to Chapter 5.6.2 , the nozzle and the die openings do not have to be
cleaned.
5.6.2 Shut-down of the press for a longer period of time (more than 5
minutes)
When the press is shut down for a longer period of time, it is necessary that the press is
completely emptied. Any residues of the pressed material will harden in the press, causing
overload of the press drive when activated again.

Switch off the press and remove the end nozzle.

Close the material feed in the press.

Switch the press on and let the material come out of the press.

Check that the cakes output has not completely stopped. Then switch the press off.

Clean the nozzle and the die openings.

Install the nozzle.
