PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE  - Assumes you have preformed this maintenance before and are familiar with this machine.

Before beginning any repair or preventive maintenance procedure, note the following information: 

 
                                                      

ELECTRICAL HAZARD: Disconnect the unit from its power source before beginning any maintenance or repair procedure.  If a panel is opened, exposure to live electrical circuits is possible.Failure to follow all electrical safety procedures could result in SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH BY ELECTROCUTION

                                                       WARNING:  High pressure air is dangerous.  Disconnect the supply and bleed the air in the system before beginning service procedures.  Failure to do this may cause SERIOUS INJURY to operators and bystanders.  It may also damage the equipment.
                                                      

WARNING 1:  CLEANING CHEMICALS - Certain chemicals and cleaning agents may be hazardous to the equipment.  MEK, Acetone, cleaners containing abrasives, and other substances could cause degradation or failure of various components or plating.Harsh chemicals should not be used on this equipment.

                                                      

WARNING 2:  CLEANING CHEMICALS - Certain chemicals and cleaning agents may be hazardous to maintenance personnel.  MEK, Acetone, cleaners containing ammonia or bleach, and other substances could cause allergic reactions or other physical and health-related problems. Refer to safety information about the chemicals used.  

                                                        

NOTE: Certain components of this equipment may have a proprietary non-stick plating applied.  This plating leaves the surface with a mottled or irregular appearance.  Do not attempt to polish this mottled finish.  Removing this plating will result in process failure due to sticking material. See the Cleaning Chemicals warnings before beginning maintenance procedures.

 
                                           

A preventive maintenance schedule for the Matrix 6200 Reel-to-Reel Dispensing Platform is shown in the following tables.  The scheduling is only a guideline.  Actual required maintenance frequencies depend on product parameters, volume, and use of the machine.
