Maintenance
CAUTION! Perform maintenance operations when the machine is turned off.
CAUTION!
Maintenance operations must be carried out by qualified and authorised personnel.
Machine maintenance includes the operations (inspections, checks, adjustments and replacements) that become necessary
following normal use.
For good maintenance:
•
only use original spare parts and tools that are suitable for the purpose and in good condition.
•
follow the intervention frequencies indicated in the manual for scheduled maintenance (preventive and periodic). The
distance (indicated in time or in work cycles) between one intervention and another is intended as the maximum
acceptable; therefore, it must not be exceeded, but it can be shortened.
•
good preventive maintenance requires constant attention and continuous monitoring of the machine. Immediately check
the cause of any anomalies, such as excessive noise, overheating, fluid leaks, etc., and fix it.
•
timely removal of any causes of anomaly or malfunction prevents further damage to the equipment and ensures operator
safety.
Machine maintenance staff must be well trained and have thorough knowledge of the accident prevention regulations;
unauthorised staff must stay outside the work area during the operations.
Machine/system cleaning and adjustments must also be carried out only during maintenance and with the machine/system
stopped and disconnected from the electrical panel, as shown in the use and maintenance manual.
IMPORTANT!
In case of doubt, it is forbidden to operate. Contact the Manufacturer for any explanations.
CAUTION!
Any repairs or maintenance work not indicated herein can only be carried out following authorisation from ARS S.r.l.
ARS S.r.l. shall not be held liable for any damage to people or property for operations other than those described or carried
out in ways different than indicated.
Machine maintenance jobs, in terms of operation, are divided into two main categories:
Routine maintenance
All those operations that the operator must perform preventively to ensure smooth
operation of the machine over time; routine maintenance includes inspections, checks,
adjustments, cleaning and lubrication.
Unscheduled maintenance
All those operations that the operator must perform when required by the machine.
Unscheduled maintenance includes inspections, repairs, restoration of nominal
operating conditions or replacement of a broken, faulty or worn unit.
