Maintenance
WARNING: For healthy and hygienic processing of nutritional products, be sure to keep your machine and the
surrounding environment clean.
DANGER: Always cut off power supply before cleaning.
COVER AND POOL CLEANING
Eliminate the dough residue and make sure to thoroughly clean the most remote-access pieces: connections
of the Archimedean screw and mixer movements (Fig. 12), extrusion sleeve, cover and pool internal parts.
Use some warm water in order to eliminate the residual product and then rinse; dry the surfaces with the help
of blotting paper. To clean machine internal and external parts:
•
Remove power supply plug from power mains socket.
•
Clean coated surfaces with soft cloth and disinfect with alcohol.
•
To clean internal parts of machine:
•
Turn the machine and lay it down on a side.
•
Clean the internal parts with the help of a soft cloth and blow with a compressed air jet.
WARNING: Never use non-nutritional, abrasive or corrosive chemicals to clean. Also never use coarse or
abrasive objects such as steel wool, abrasive sponges and so on. DO NOT clean the tank lid with alcohol or
other solvents.
CLEANING OF THE ARCHIMEDEAN SCREW, MIXER, RING NUT AND DRAWPLATE
•
Eliminate the dough residue and wash the pieces with water; you may use a soft brush or a plastic egg-
slice.
•
These elements can be thoroughly washed in a dishwasher. Rinse and dry the mixer, the Archimedean
screw and the ring nut and reassemble them on the machine.
•
The drawplate (Fig. 5A) is to stay in a container with water when it is not in use.
•
For reasons of hygiene, please change the water every day.
MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT
The points of the machine which need a certain maintenance are the following: the transmission gears, the
dragging belt and the mixer external support. Please carry out the first maintenance after the first 100 hours
and thereafter every 500 hours.
•
Mixer support: Use registered fats for foods (USDA-H1) (in case of requirement contact your local dealer).
•
Drive gears and chain: please use mineral grease SAE MR3.
BELT STRETCHING
When performing the above mentioned maintenance or when the machine is not working properly, (loss of
rounds) verify the correct stretching of the transmission belt (Fig. 13A). Put the machine on one side and make
sure that the belt is sufficiently stretched. If necessary, unscrew the blocking motor screws (Fig. 13B) and push
it downwards and stretch the belt without exaggerating; then re-block the screws.
