Maintenance; Maintenance And Adjustment - Omcan 13160 Instructions

Warning: never use non-food grade, abrasive or corrosive chemicals to clean. Also never use coarse
or abrasive objects such as steel wool, abrasive sponges and so on.
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, first dismantle the rear panel; remove any grease and powder from the
food products processed; then reassemble the panels.

MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT

Warning: Remember that all maintenance operations are hazardous if you do not first disconnect the
plug from power mains.
To maintain machine safety, serviceability and stated performance, service the following parts:
• Belt tension: once yearly, or in case of irregular machine operation (r.p.m. loss), check belt drive tension. To
do this, disassemble machine rear panel; be sure that the belt is tight enough and, if necessary, turn screw
marked by the appropriate symbol, without exaggerating when tightening the belt. Reassemble the rear
panel.
Never use the machine with any missing, disassembled or open guards and shields.
If servicing operations require repairs to electrical system and/or replacement of bearings or
mechanical components, call Omcan.
Models MX-IT-0010 - MX-IT-0060
Chain maintenance: chains do not need tensioning; they do, however, need greasing once a year. To do this
disassemble the rear panel and top cover.
Models MX-IT-0030 - MX-IT-0060
Together with the top control panel, remove all the fixing screws of the panel except one, which should be
loosened to allow the panel to rotate while still remaining attached to the machine (this allows you not to
detach the electrical cable from the panel). Use MR3 type grease in sufficient quantities that allow lubrication
of all chain links. Do not apply too much grease because during chain motion it will tend to spatter against the
machine walls and gum up with dust and food products (e.g. flour) making it harder for you to clean. Finally,
reassemble all panelling taking care not to damage the control electrical cable in machines with the top control
panel.
