Preventative Maintenance

A good maintenance program is the key to a long successful machine life and trouble- free operation. There are a few very important steps you can perform in order to get the best performance from your American Feeding Systems equipment.

NOTE: The primary cause of decreased system performance is the presence of oil and/ or debris from the parts and product atmospheres.

Clean, dry parts and a clean system are essential for optimum performance. The frequency of the cleaning schedule is entirely dependent upon the operating environment. In conditions that are less than ideal, it may be necessary to perform cleaning procedures once a day, once a shift, or even more frequently. In very clean environments, once a week or less may be adequate. It is the responsibility of the Purchaser to determine and adhere to an appropriate cleaning schedule.

WARNING: Turn off the main power switch and disconnect power sources while performing cleaning procedures.
