•
Prevent premature wear to keep the machine as dust free as possible. Clean the machine regularly with
a dust collector and non-aggressive materials, especially the upper drive. Never use a high pressure
water cleaner to clean the machine.
•
It is advisable to stock all spare parts or wear parts that cannot be supplied quickly. As a rule, production
standstill periods are more expensive than the cost of the related spare part.
•
Do not use any aggressive cleaning materials and use lint-free cleaning cloths.
•
To allow the user to do the maintenance operations, the machine must be disassembled, cleaned and
inspected as far as reasonably possible, without causing hazards for the maintenance staff or other
people.
•
The suitable precautions include decontamination before disassembling the machine, adequate filtered
ventilation of the exhaust air from the room in which it is disassembled, cleaning of the maintenance
area and suitable personal protection equipment.
•
Clean the external parts of the dust collector. Use the vacuum machine if necessary. Make sure that
machine is dust-free before you drive from the hazardous zone. All parts of the dust collector must be
considered as contaminated when they are removed from the hazardous zone and appropriate actions
must be taken to prevent dust from dispersing.
•
When maintenance or repair procedures are done, all the contaminated elements that cannot be
properly cleaned, must be replaced.
•
These contaminated elements must be disposed of in sealed bags according to the applicable regulations
and in accordance with the local laws governing the disposal of such material.
•
This procedure must also be followed when the filters have to be disposed.
•
If dust goes out from the filter, the filter cartridges are damaged or it is not fixed correctly inside the
chamber. Stop the machine immediately and examine the filter units.
•
Replace the filter if you see the leakage. You must also clean the compartment above the filters and
silencer.
•
The compartments that are not dust-tight must be opened with suitable tools and thoroughly cleaned.
•
Do not weld, flame cut or perform grinding works on or near the dust collector. Danger of fire or
explosion exists!
•
Provide adequate ventilation when you work in a confided space.
•
Secure the maintenance area if necessary.
•
Use the maintenance power supply (16 Amp) if power is needed during maintenance operations.
•
Do the maintenance activities only on the ground level.

Safety for dust collector and pre-separator
•
Always use the integrated dust collector when working dry to make sure that there is a dust-free
operation of the machine and clean air at the workspace. Also the airflow helps to cool the machine and
prevents overheating.
•
Use the dust collector only for dry cleaning.
•
Use the dust collector only to remove the non-combustible and non-explosive dust or substances.
•
The machine does not apply for carcinogenic, pathogenic or asbestos substances.
•
Do not use the machine in the dangerous atmospheres for example flammable gasses or dusts.
•
The machine is designed for usage in conditions according to classification M.
•
Never use the machine for suction of the water or liquids.
•
Acids, acetone or solvents can damage the machine.
•
Never use the machine without the filters in place!
•
Never use the machine without Longopack bags attached.
•
Do a regular check of the contents of the pre-separator and dust collector. Always wear a dust mask of
at least class FFP3 when you change the Longopack bags. Comply with the local waste treatment
regulations considering the removed material.
•
The dust hoses must be connected properly with a hose clamp and industrial tape.
•
The dust hoses must be undamaged and free of obstructions.
•
Daily use the air pistol and drain valve to remove water from the air tanks.
•
When you temporarily stop the work (1/2 hour – 1 hour), turn off the fan unit only. Pulse cleaning of
the filter system will continue and will increase the life-time of the filter cartridges.
•
During a longer standstill of the dust collector, first set the fan unit to off. Let the pulse cleaning cycle
run for +/- 5 minutes. Set the compressor and main-switch to off. Remove water from the pressure
tanks.
•
Always close off the butterfly valves of the pre-separator and dust collector when running the pulse
cleaning cycle. Failure to do so can result in blown out dust, which can be hazardous to the health.
•
Do not set to off or remove the exhaust and ventilation devices when the machine is operated.
•
If dust goes out from the filter, the filter cartridges are damaged or not fixed correctly inside the
chamber. Stop the machine immediately and examine the filter units.
•
Replace the filter if you see the leakage. You must also clean the compartment above the filters and
silencer.
