Preventive maintenance
- Inspect all internal hoses, seals and gaskets for signs of leakage.
Repair as necessary.
- Check that water inlet screens are clean of debris. Dirty screens
result in longer fill times, which reduce productivity.
- Inspect the drive belt. Adjust the tension or replace if necessary (see
section 30. Motor).
- Check that there are no signs of leakage on the floor beneath the
machine. Locate and repair any leak.
- On heated machines, if the heating time is unusually long, check the
heating elements (see section 40. Heating). If the water is very hard,
check whether there are lime deposits on the heating elements.
Decalcify the elements if necessary. Adapt the amount of deliming
agent to the manufacturer’s guidelines.
- Never switch on the heating elements when there is no water in the
machine. This will cause the slow-blow fuse to trigger.
- Inspect the shock absorbers and coil springs. (Only EX- and
H-model).
