CUTTING SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The
h
Cutter Grinder
Model CG02
has been designed from the ground up to
have a long service life with minimum maintenance, however as with all me-
chanical systems, there are some routine operations that will help you keep your
Cutter Grinder in top condition.
WARNING: NEVER OPEN THE HEAD OR TOUCH, ADJUST OR REPLACE THE
BLADES WITHOUT USING THE KEYLOCKED MAINTENANCE SWITCH ON THE
CONTROL BOX.
NEVER disable or obstruct the safety systems on the machine.
NEVER use non-standard parts or accessories.
ALWAYS WEAR SUITABLE HEARING AND EYE PROTECTION.
Maintenance
BEFORE
beginning any maintenance on the Cutter Grinder always carry out the
following. Make sure that the Cutter Grinder is switched off at the Control
Panel. Use the
MAINTENANCE
position of the keyswitch on the Control Panel if
you need to move the drive spindle. Check that all rotation has ceased by insert-
ing a long thin wooden stick into the inlet funnel or chute until it reaches to the
screen plate in the cutting head. If all rotation has stopped, lower the safety
handle and undo the knurled head locking nuts. Swing the head right back and
place a wooden wedge (100mm long and 50mm square at the thick end) in the
gap between the head and the midbody so that the head cannot close acciden-
tally. Put the locking bar in place to lock the spindle.
