General recommendations
Take note of all the work health and safety regulatory provisions that apply and any local workplace safety instructions including
conditions relating to the work environment, clothing and the operator’s individual protective equipment as required by all the
applicable regulations.
It is advisable to keep a maintenance log for all maintenance tasks carried out on the actuator.
Prevent foreign bodies from entering the system by using a clean work surface in order to protect the delicate moving parts from
being contaminated by dirt or foreign materials when assembling and dissembling, as this could cause a deterioration of the
mechanical parts.
Maintenance of the Portable Valve Actuators should be carried out by people who have been trained by
modec
.
Our “After Sales Service” department are ready to help in this respect.
Systematically take out the spark plug before carrying out any procedure that involves replacing, adjusting, servicing or
dissembling the actuator or any of its parts.
Every time maintenance is carried out, test the actuator afterwards to check it is working correctly.
Only use approved replacement parts and follow the manufacturer’s advice with regard to lubrication and waterproofing.
