Care
How to proceed:
1. Switch the machine off and empty all tanks by opening the stop cocks.
2. Remove light protection cover and machine cover and wait until the tanks are
drained completely; then close the stop cocks again. Now fill the fixer-tank
with water. Prepare cleaner solutions for developer and water baths and fill
into respective tanks.
3. Remove suction pipes from the replenishment containers and place them in a
water filled bucket. Attention: Do not add chemical cleaners here!
4. Install the machine cover and switch the machine on.
5. Start film transportation and keep it running for 10 to 20 minutes. After the
heat-up phase, place a film in the feed so that it activates the film switch but
will not be pulled into the processor. During the operation with water, the
installed roller racks will be cleaned.
6. Important: After completion of tank cleaning, the tank should be rinsed thor-
oughly with clean water. To do this, fill the machine with fresh water twice and
each time, let the machine run for a 10 minute period. Empty the tanks and re-
close the stop cocks.
7. Remove the service cover. Take out the roller-racks and rinse them thor-
oughly with running water. Remove remaining dirt from the rollers by using a
sponge and clean thoroughly. Doing this, the rollers can be turned by turning
the drive shaft. Reinstall the roller-racks in the machine.
8. Refill the tanks with respective chemicals. Replace the suction pipes into the
replenishment containers. In certain circumstances the circulation system
must be ventilated: see page 15, item 1c.
9. For quality check, process test films.
Before you go on holiday...
or if your processor will not be in use for longer than two weeks, all the chemicals
have to be drained from the tanks. In case you don't want to do a complete tank
cleaning at once, then fill the tanks after emptying, with water.
Attention: Do not use alcohol containing solvents to clean the
machine!
The colour changes in the baths is normal; it is caused by the
properties of the chemicals!
