Over time, sawdust may accumulate inside of the electrical enclosures. Once every
week, use a vacuum to remove sawdust from each electrical enclosure. Removing
sawdust helps prevent problems with electrical components.

Sensors
This section contains a list of sensors and recommended maintenance.
9.10.2.1
Photoeye Sensors
Infeed Sensor
The infeed sensor detects the presence of material on the infeed rail. It should be
positioned to secure sensor visibility.
The Infeed Sensor should be cleaned on a weekly basis or as needed based on visibility.
It is recommended that the window be cleaned using a common glass/plastic cleaner.
The window should be sprayed and wiped down with a soft cloth to prevent damage to
the surface. Do NOT use benzene, acetone, or a thinner as it will damage the surface.
Squeezer Sensor
The Squeezer Sensor verifies presence of material in front of the squeezer before it
engages.
The Squeezer Sensor should be cleaned on a weekly basis or as needed based on
visibility. It is recommended that the window be cleaned using a common glass/plastic
cleaner. The window should be sprayed and wiped down with a soft cloth to prevent
damage to the surface. Do NOT use benzene, acetone, or a thinner as it will damage the
surface.
Auto Loading Live Deck Sensor (if equipped)
The Auto Loading Live Deck Sensor detects the presence of material on the auto loading
live deck.
