10 MAINTENANCE
GENERAL ADVICE
Before carrying out any type of operations, read carefully the instructions given in this manual.
WARNING
These operations must only be carried out by skilled and competent personnel.
- All maintenance operations must be carried out with the machine disconnected from the electrical power
and compressed air supplies, using padlocks to block the relative switches.
-When the electrical equipment is supplied with power, certain parts of the machine can be dangerous.
- Non compliance with the safety rules set out here can therefore lead to damage being caused to persons
or things.
- All the instructions given in chapter 10.1 of this manual must therefore be followed, as well as the warning
notices affixed to the machine itself.
- Once maintenance operations are complete, before putting the machine back into service, make sure that:
1 - any parts replaced and/or tools used for the maintenance operations have been removed from the
machine.
2 - all safety devices are in proper working order.
10.1 DAILY MAINTENANCE
The maintenance operations for the BLITZ are very simple and are listed in the following order:
- Check the cutting lubrication oil level “A” - Fig.10-01 (a lack of oil is in any case signalled by the equipment).
CAUTION - IMPORTANT
Top up using only “Oil for cutting aluminium” with a viscosity no greater than 40 cSt.
- Check on gauge “B” - Fig. 10-02 the incoming air pressure level.
- Check through the slits “C” - Fig. 10-02 for any condensation in the cup. If there is condensation in the
vessel, press knob “D” - Fig. 10-02 upwards until it is drained (this operation must be carried out without
disconnecting BLITZ from the air supply). The condensation is in any case drained automatically (with
the ring open) each time the air supply hose is disconnected.
- Using the compressed air gun supplied if necessary, clean all traces of dust or chips from the work contact
surfaces.
WARNING
Protective eye goggles and a face mask must be worn whenever the compressed air gun is used; make sure
also that there is no one in the area where cleaning is taking place.
- Keep the area around the machine clear of offcuts, chips and all other machining residue.
