5. GENERAL MAINTENANCE

The ordinary maintenance criteria we suggest, are based on the company experience and on the advices
and suggestions from our customers.
Such criteria are not exhaustive can be further integrated also with the collaboration of the customers that
we thanks in advance. A good ordinary maintenance maintains the operating costs of the machine low and
provide an integral exploitation of its potentialities.
In damage case, the operator must stop the machine immediately, assess the entity of the problem and
proceed with eventual actions on the machine.
If pressure water or compressed air is used for the cleaning of the machine, it is necessary to protect
oneself with proper glasses or protection masks and to remove eventual persons or animals near the
machine. Do not use inflammable fluids.
Every 8 hours of effective job, control the tightness of all nuts and bolts.
In case of anomalous vibrations, verify the status of wear of the vanes of the spreading disc, the corrected
tightness of all the nuts and bolts and the lubrication of the gear box. The excessive vibration of the
machine, besides the specific annoyance, is dangerous and damaging for the entire structure subjecting
the mechanical parts to more and more stress cycles compared to the advice pictures.
As regards particular actions that the user does not know or regarding broken parts replacing which are
not shown in this manual, it is necessary to consult specialised personnel, making use of the Assistance
service by the manufacturer or its distributors.
