Instruction Manual
5. Maintenance
Clean the cutting chamber, especially the cutting table with
the T-slots.
Do not clean the lamp glass with alcohol. Use a damp cloth.
Empty and clean the sieve in the Recirculation Cooling Unit.
Refill the Recirculation Cooling Unit.
Always use the correct concentration of Struers Additive in the cooling
water (percentage stated on the container of the Additive). Remember to
top up with Struers Additive each time you refill with water.
Remove clamping device
Clean the cutting chamber thoroughly.
The cooling unit should be checked for cooling water after 8 hours
use or at least every week. The unit must be refilled if the
flushing pump cannot reach the cooling water. Remember to add
Struers Additive for Cooling Fluid: One part of Additive for 33
parts of water.
To check the concentration of additive, use a refractometer.
Concentration = Brix value. The concentration of additive should
always lie between 2.7 and 3.3 %. Add Struers Additive for
Cooling Fluid if the concentration is too low.
Replace the cooling water in the Recirculation Cooling Unit
(optional TRECA) at least once a month.
Place a disposable plastic insert (EXOSP) in the tank and fold
it over the rim.
Please Note: Too high a level of coolant in the tank might
damage the pump. To avoid this, place the disposable insert so
that the pre-punched hole is in front of the overflow aperture in
the tank.
Fill the tank with 63 l of water and 2 l Struers Additive. The
water level should be 8-10 cm below the upper rim of the tank.
