10 Dismantling the device / switching off after use
10.1 Cutter
After end of working, the blades should be closed till a few mm of tip distance. This
releases the entire device in terms of the hydraulics and mechanically.
10.2 Hydraulic aggregate
After end of working, the engine must be shut down.
10.3 Hose lines
First disconnect the high pressure hose (red), then the return hose (blue) as described
under 7.2. Attach the dust caps to the plug connections.
10.4 Electric cables
The electric cables should be disconnected in case of longer periods between uses.
11 Maintenance
After each operartion and after the end of the shift respectively, a sight check must be
carried out, at least once a year. A function test must be accomplished every 500
operating hours or if there are doubts about the safety or reliability (clean first if dirty).
Sight check
Blades
• Cutting edges free from nicks and deformation,
• Distance of blades from each other in transverse direction < 4 mm for LSI 501 and
LSI 530, and < 3 mm for LSI 511 and LSI 55 (otherwise danger of breakage)
• Cutting edges cross contactless,
• Blades free of cracks
• Dirt in the protective hose (this dirt must immediately be removed)
Cutter
• General impermeability (leakages)),
• Mobility of the star grip,
• Handle in existent and fixed,
• Check torque of the central bolt (see picture in chapter 12.3.1)
M
A
= torque, see „Technical data“.
Hoses
• Check according to safety instructions for hose lines (see chapter 5),
• Check oil loss.
Function test
• Opens and closes properly using the star grip, electric controls or external controls
(depending on the type of controls).
• Check device for maximum nominal load using a manometer (available as a LUKAS
accessory).
The inspection value specifications are included under chapter „Technical data“.
