15 - MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
In case of irregularities or malfunctioning, please contact the service technician for the relevant checks.
Periodically, it is necessary to carry out the following operations:
(*): Discharge the boiler once it has reached 1 bar of pressure, in order to remove any limescale or dirt deposits.
When the machine is switched off, open slowly the gate valve of the boiler exhaust. We recommend to carry out
this operation before you start working and not in the evening at the end of work, as the fresh water streaming into
the boiler is rich in oxygen, increasing during the night the corrosion process inside the drum.
This machine does not require special equipment for check and/or maintenance operations. It is however advisable
to use suitable tools and personal protections in compliance with the Italian law by decree 626/94, which have to be
in good conditions (Presidential Decree 547/55), in order to avoid any damages to persons or machine
components.
Make sure that the power and hidraulic supply are disconnected prior to any maintenance service
and that the whole equipment is cooled down.
