To ensure that the PharmaCap
™
Capsule Filler will have a long operational life, maintenance is
essential. This section includes methods for troubleshooting solutions and how often to grease
and clean your machine to keep its performance optimal.
General Maintenance Prescriptions
• Use the maintenance checklist (found in the Appendix) before, during, and after machine
operation.
• Make sure all grease points are maintained and regularly lubricated.
• Use an appropriate amount of lubricant.
• After cleaning the machine, make sure that the parts are dried and oiled.
Lubrication
Regularly greasing your machine is vital to prolonging its operational life. Parts that are not
greased properly can make the capsule filler seize up and cause major problems later. LFA
recommends maintaining a lubrication schedule for your PharmaCap

Capsule Filler, which can be
found in this section.
