Observe the following points for smooth cleaning operation:
Press the hand pump every 2 to 3 seconds to deliver cleaning electrolyte.
▶
More cleaning electrolyte is required with a higher cleaning power, because the
cleaning electrode and workpiece become hotter and the cleaning electrolyte evaporates more quickly.
When cleaning with the cleaning felt, apply slight pressure to the weld.
▶
If the operating noise ("crackling") is increased, insufficient cleaning electrolyte is be-
▶
ing used; it is better to clean in a puddle than too dry.
Always hold the cleaning brush perpendicular to the weld, and always moistened
▶
with cleaning electrolyte.
Apply light pressure to the area to be cleaned.
When cleaning with the cleaning brush, sparking, foaming, and increased operating
▶
noise may occur - this is normal.

EN-US
At every start-up-Check mains cable, grounding cable, and torch cable for damage
-Check cleaning electrodes and cleaning felt, cleaning brushes as well as Print electrodes and Print felt for wear and burns and replace if necessary;
only use original spare parts and accessories from the manufacturer.
NOTE!
The air inlet and outlet openings on the device must not be blocked or even partially covered.
At the end of
each shift
DisposalUsed cleaning felts are considered hazardous waste.
-In case of residues of cleaning agent or Print electrolyte, clean the device with neutralizer and clean cloths
-Remove cleaning felt, cleaning brushes or Print felt and rinse with clean water;
replace worn or burnt cleaning felt / cleaning brushes / Print felt
-After cooling down, rinse the cleaning and Print electrodes with clear water
-Unscrew the cleaning electrolyte from the cleaning torch and close it
-Pump the cleaning torch empty
During cleaning and polishing, heavy metals are deposited in the cleaning electrolyte
used. Used cleaning electrolytes are therefore considered hazardous waste.
Materials should be disposed of according to valid local and national regulations.
Waste electrical and electronic equipment must be collected separately and recycled in
an environmentally sound manner in accordance with the European Directive and national law. Used equipment must be returned to the distributor or through a local authorized
49
collection and disposal system. Proper disposal of the used device promotes sustainable
recycling of material resources. A failure to observe this may lead to potential health/
environmental impacts
