7.6
CLEANING OPERATIONS
The machine must be cleaned at regular intervals, following the frequency set out in the maintenance plan.
Below is a series of general notes and instructions to be taken into account during cleaning operations.
•
If during cleaning operations caked dirt is found, diffi cult to remove with a dry cloth or brush, use a suitable cleaning liquid that does not have any
harmful effects on seals, rubber parts and paint, is not toxic, not fl ammable and whose use is permitted.
•
Do not spray the cleaning liquid by pressurised cylinders, since its volatility does not allow it to perform its cleaning action properly and may
produce vapours in the workplace. Rather use well moistened soft cloths to achieve a better effect.
•
Avoid prolonged contact with cleaning liquids and inhaling their vapours. Avoid using them near naked fl ames or heat sources, assure adequate
ventilation in the site of utilisation.
•
Besides using the usual caution, during cleaning operations the operator must be provided with appropriate personal protection equipment such
as mask, coveralls, goggles, gloves and shoes depending on the job to be performed.
•
The machine must be cleaned with care, especially on unpainted guides and sliding parts. Upon completing operations on these machined
unpainted parts, a thin layer of oil must be spread to protect from corrosive agents.
•
Cleaning all machine surfaces (including the polyethylene hose) is important since it reduces friction and useless additional weight, with the
advantage of allowing the operator or whoever is performing the operation to immediately check all machine parts, especially oil level sight
gauges.
NOTE
The machine must be cleaned at regular intervals according to the use and operating setting.
DANGER
Prior to starting any cleaning operation on the machine, disconnect and padlock/lock all power sources and secure the movable
units it consists of.
Affi x the sign "machine undergoing maintenance - do not power on".
Cleaning operators are forbidden from removing guards and protection devices fi tted on the machine.
Wait for hot parts to cool down.
CAUTION
The parts the machine consists of must be cleaned with extreme care from dust or other substances. It is recommended to use
cleaning liquids that have good grease solvent properties yet do not have harmful effects on the rubber seals.
During these operations the personnel in charge must be equipped with adequate protection clothing (mask, gloves, shoes,
overalls and goggles) and use lint-free cloths and rags.
CAUTION
To clean delicate mechanisms, alignments and lubricating mechanisms, only dry and soft cloths must be used that do not leave
lint, or soft bristle brushes.
NOTE
With regards to the use of cleaning liquids, the types and limitations for use dictated by the relevant regulations in force in the
country of use of the machine must be complied with.
DANGER
It is forbidden to use cleaning liquids which are not allowed in the country of use of the machine and compressed air with
pressure exceeding 0.2 MPa for cleaning operations.
Avoid prolonged personnel exposure to the vapours of cleaning liquids, assuring proper ventilation of the premises.
Failure to comply with these precautionary measures may cause harm to personnel.
