Servicing and maintenance
Note: replacing parts, electrical, mechanical or hydraulic, can only be done by
qualified personnel. Your supplier can not be held responsible for damages or
injuries as result of inappropriate servicing.
Daily
Remove dust and dirt
from the table and
around the press.
Check the press for
visible damages.
Weekly
Check oil level of the
hydraulic unit.
Check electrical
connections.
Half-yearly
Inspect all hydraulic
fittings and hoses and
tighten any loose
connections.
Inspect and tighten all
loose fixing bolts.
In case of leakages, damaged parts or bare electric cables; do not use the machine before it is
repaired.
Always use original spare parts.
Note: when starting with maintenance, always unplug the electrical connection
and make sure there is no hydraulic pressure on the system. Both can result in
injuries to the maintenance operator.
6.1 Oil tank draining
Replace the hydraulic oil at least once a year. A drain plug is located at the bottom of the oil tank. If
the inside of the tank is not clean, remove the top cover of the tank and clean the tank from the inside.
Check if the drained oil has a gray color or if there are metal particles visible in the oil. This can
indicate worn out parts in the cylinder or the hydraulic unit.
You have to prevent spilling dirt and water inside the oil tank.
6.2 Contact your supplier
If there are any questions, please contact your supplier.
Always mention the serial number on the machine label. This label is located at the frame of the press
(front right side). When you have questions about the hydraulic unit, also mention its serial number.
The label is located on the back of the hydraulic tank.
Yearly
Replace the hydraulic
oil of the unit. See
instruction below.
