5 Controls and maintenance
5.1 - Controls and maintenance
Access to the internal part of the machine is reserved exclusively to our
specialised technician.
If the machine is accessed voluntarily, the manufacturer declines all civil and penal
liability regarding any accidents or damage caused to persons or objects.
All electric components are protected within the machine body and the relative
guard must be removed in order to gain access. Whenever access must be made,
remove the plug from the electric control board current socket.
5.2- Maintenance
1. Clean the sealing bars and the silicon counter-bar more or less every 15 days
using alcohol.
2. Change the oil every 400 hours of working (data variable depending on the type
of product packed).
After 2000 cycles the machine envisions an automatic oil control, the display
shows the “oil change” message. The user must call the dealer, who will
check the efficiency of the oil and will replace it, if necessary.
3. Replacement of electric resistances, Teflon sealing bar, lid sealing gaskets
about every 200 working hours.
4. Replacement of the silicon counter-bar
5. Check pump vanes, filters, pneumatic solenoid valve seals every 35,000
work cycles.
5.2.1 - Vacuum pump
For the safeguarding and the duration of the vacuum pump, follow the indications
given below scrupulously:
- Do not suck up steam, liquids and flours of any type.
This compromises the viscosity of the pump oil and damages the pump itself.
- Periodically check the pump oil level through the visual inspection window
(ref. 4 fig. 5.2.2)
A level below minimum can damage the pump
A level above maximum can damage the pump filter and the pump itself
- Periodically check the colour of the pump oil. If the oil appears
cloudy, dark or emulsioned, it must be replaced immediately.
- Replace the pump oil every 2 / 4 / 6 or 12 months, depending on use and location
of the equipment, or appearing the notice "change oil" on the display.
The pump oil may have to be replaced every month.
- Replace the pump oil before prolonged machine shutdown.
ATTENTION!!:
Considering that the vacuum packaging machine is nearly always located in the
kitchen, an environment full of steam and humidity, the level and quality of the
pump oil must be checked constantly and replaced frequently and periodically.
