position, and screw on the cover until it reaches its final position. It is recommended to lubricate the join with silicone and
remove any dirt from the mouth of the separator.
- Once the cover is in its final position, check that the safety bolt projects out from the stop so that the cover does not becom
accidentally loose.
6.- MAINTENANCE
Do not use solvents nor powder detergents to clean the separator, as they could damage or scratch the surfaces. It is
recommended to use a damp cloth with water.
Replace all worn parts and joints as necessary.
Lubricate joints with silicone so that they operate correctly and do not deteriorate.

7.- WINTER STORAGE

At the end of the season, it is advisable to empty the separator so that its components do not deteriorate. To do this, follow
these steps:
- Isolate the separator from the rest of the installation by closing the corresponding valves.
- Open the air purge to eliminate inside pressure.
- Open the water purge to empty the separator.
- Once the separator is empty, remove the upper cover. Unscrew the nut of the cover. To do this operation, lift the safety
lever which is under the nut.
- Undo the fastening cord of the bag in the holder.
- Remove the bag with the D.E.
- Dispose of the D.E.
- Clean inside the separator removing all dirt.
- Clean the bag with a water hose, if necessary.
