IMPORTANT
Always remove the plug from the socket in any emergency situaon.
4.7 Warning
Electrical or mechanical maintenance has to be undertaken by qualified personnel. The
person in charge of maintenance has to be sure that the machine is under TOTAL SAFETY
condions when working.
When checking the tension of belts or chains DO NOT insert your fingers between belts
and pulleys, nor between the chains and gears.
Check protecons and safety devices to make sure they are working properly.

Never clean the machine unless it has come to a complete stop.
Put all the components back to their funconal posions before turning the machine ON
again.
Check the level of oil.
Do NOT insert your fingers in between belts and pulleys nor chains and gears.

3.4 Cauons with Stainless Steel:
The Stainless Steel may present rust signs, which ARE ALWAYS CAUSED BY EXTERNAL
AGENTS, especially when the cleaning or sanizaon is not constant and appropriate.
The Stainless Steel resistance towards corrosion is mainly due to the presence of chrome,
which in contact with oxygen allows the formaon of a very thin protecve coat. This
protecve coat is formed through the whole surface of the steel, blocking the acon of
external corrosive agents.
When the protecve coat is broken, the corrosion process begins, being possible to avoid
it by means of constant and adequate cleaning.
Cleaning must always be done immediately aer using the equipment. For such end, use
water, neutral soap or detergent, and clean the equipment with a so cloth or a nylon
sponge. Then rinse it with plain running water, and dry immediately with a so cloth, this
way avoiding humidity on surfaces and especially on gaps.
The rinsing and drying processes are extremely important to prevent stains and corrosion
from arising.
IMPORTANT
Acid soluons, salty soluons, disinfectants and some sterilizing soluons
(hypochlorites, tetravalent ammonia salts, iodine compounds, nitric acid and
others), must be AVOIDED, once it cannot remain for long in contact with the
stainless steel.
These substances aack the stainless steel due to the CHLORINE on its composion,
causing corrosion spots (ping).
Even detergents used in domesc cleaning must not remain in contact with the stainless
steel longer than the necessary, being mandatory to remove it with plain water and then
dry the surface completely.
Use of abrasives:
Sponges or steel wool and carbon steel brushes, besides scratching the surface
and compromising the stainless steel protecon, leave parcles that rust and react
contaminang the stainless steel. That is why such products must not be used for cleaning
and sanizaon. Scrapings made with sharp instruments or similar must also be avoided.
Main substances that cause stainless steel corrosion:
Dust, grease, acid soluons such as vinegar, fruit juices, etc., saltern soluons (brine),
blood, detergents (except for the neutral ones), common steel parcles, residue of sponges
or common steel wool, and also other abrasives.
