Maintenance Procedures
WARNINGS
Electrical
Before starting any maintenance, ensure that the forms cutter has been disconnected from the main
electrical supply.
Clothing & Jewellery
Never operate the forms cutter when wearing items of loose clothing or other decorative jewellery,
such as necklaces or bracelets as they could become entrapped in the machinery and cause injury.
Cutting blades
The putting into operation of the machine, especially the actuation of the cross-cut forms cutter
blade pre-supposes that the forms cutter has been correctly installed by a Spedo trained technician.
The first time that the cross-cutting blade is to be actuated, it must only be carried out manually by
a Spedo trained technician.
The angular blades on the edge trimmers, the centre cutter and the cross-cutter are extremely sharp
and care should be taken to protect fingers when the protective cover has been opened.
The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused by non-observance of the procedures given in this
manual. Never touch the working area of the longitudinal cross-cutting blade. This is applicable
especially when standing at the stacker end, when the motor is running. If any malfunction occurs,
contact the Customer Services Department of Spedo or their agent for assistance. DO NOT
ATTEMPT to correct any mechanical malfunction that occurs unless qualified to do so.

2. With a soft hair bush, remove any compressed paper dust build-up on the drive wheel.
(Fig. 2) If the build-up of dust is so compressed that a soft hair brush alone will not
remove it, you can use a soft grade brass wire brush. NOTE: Do not use a steel wire
bush or any form of abrasive to clean the drive wheel surface.
3. Remove, and lubricate the edge trimmer oil wicks (one per edge trimmer) with light
machine oil. Refit the oil wicks once oil has soaked in. (Fig. 3) NOTE: Do not over oil
the wicks as this may cause marks on the edges of the forms.
4. Lubricate the drive wheel drive shaft bush. We recommend using light machine oil, in an
aerosol form to ease application. (Fig. 4)
5. Remove the blade guard. (Fig. 5) WARNING Exposed blades proceed with caution.
6. Loosen the two grub screws which retain the pressure head mount plate, (Fig. 6) and lift
the assembly clear of the machine.
