Pressure Washers
The entire machine may be washed using water from a hose. The Rollers, Faceplate, Die
Plate, and Frame may be cleaned using a high-pressure washer. Do not direct a high-
pressure stream at any electrical components, Control Buttons, Motor, Cables or the
Bearings.
§
ATTENTION
– Improper use of a pressure washer may cause damage to
your machine. Avoid spraying directly into any electrical components,
Control Buttons, Motor, Cables or the Bearings.
Use of a pressure washer is not recommended for daily cleaning of the machine. An
annual deep clean with a pressure washer will keep the machine running properly, while
not creating additional wear on the components.
§
ATTENTION
- Properly dry and protect and lubricate all components of
the machine after using a pressure washer for cleaning.
Maintenance
General maintenance on the machine is minimal. The machine does have a few wear
parts that the user needs to be aware of and maintain to keep the machine in good
working order.
Lubrication
The Take Up Bearings and Flange Bearings will occasionally require greasing. Grease
zerks are installed on each bearing for use with a grease gun. Due to the machine
running at low speeds and low temperatures the machine does not use grease as quickly
as other equipment.
§
ATTENTION
–
Damage can occur to the bearing seals if they are over-
greased.
Bearing Lubrication Intervals
o
High use situations (daily use, year-round) require application of one grease
pump per bearing every 3-4 months.
o
Low to Moderate use situations (Seasonal use) require application of one grease
pump per bearing 1 time per year.
Pump slowly; one grease pump will add enough grease for this application. One of the
primary causes of bearing damage is over greasing.
§
ATTENTION
–
Damage can occur to the bearing seals if they are over-
greased.
