Service/Maintenance
WARNING
The manufacturer or a trained person must carry out an inspection at least once a year. Check, for example, if
the filters are damaged, the dust extractor's air tightness and the operation of the control unit, and inspect the
electrical components, seals and cables for equalization so that they are not damaged.
Potential equalization checks should be carried out regularly when modifications or repairs are made in the
system.

The following safety precautions should generally be followed before starting maintenance:
1.
The machine must be disconnected from the power supply during cleaning and maintenance.
WARNING
Service must never take place inside the zone.
2.
To avoid the spread of dust, the machine must be vacuumed and wiped clean, and the suction opening blocked with the
supplied plug, before the machine is taken from the contaminated area.
3.
All machines must be considered as contaminated if they are removed from the hazardous zone. Appropriate measures must
be taken to prevent the spread of dust.
4.
At maintenance or repair, all contaminated objects that have not been cleaned satisfactorily must be disposed of. Such items
must be disposed of in dust-proof sacks in accordance with the regulations applicable to the disposal of waste.
5.
Clean the machine before disassembling.
6.
A room with filtered, forced ventilation is recommended. A DC Box is a recommended alternative.
7.
Clean the maintenance area in advance.
8.
Use appropriate personal protective equipment.
9.
The cyclone filter cartridges must be replaced when necessary, but at least once a year. Only use original filters, see
Consumables.
10. Motor unit: The filters in the motor housing must be replaced as part of the annual service. These parts must be replaced by
authorized staff trained by Dustcontrol. These filters are part of the explosion protection system. At high dust levels, an
inspection should take place after 4 months to determine if the filters need to be replaced more frequently.
WARNING
Do not reuse the filter after it has been removed from the machine.
