Cleaning The System - Opex Falcon+ Betriebsanleitung

5.4. Cleaning the system

When properly maintained, the Falcon+ will continue to operate efficiently and
smoothly. However, over time, dust and dirt buildup can degrade the perfor-
mance, resulting in problems such as skewing, double feeds, item hesitation
and damage. The conveyor, stacker assembly, feed assembly (feed belts, idler
pulleys, pre-feed tire, retard pad) and the CIS (contact image sensor) require
regular cleaning.
Regular and scheduled maintenance will ensure that the Falcon+ continues to
function properly, with minimum downtime and maximum efficiency. This
maintenance procedure consists of debris/dust removal and general cleaning.
Be careful when working with cleaners. A cleaner-soaked cloth or similar
material should never be used to clean moving objects. For example, do not
clean belts or rollers when the motors are running. The use of a cloth or a
similar material on moving mechanisms can result in severe personal injury.
If a belt, roller, pulley, or a similar part needs to be cleaned, hand-crank it
during cleaning or clean it while stationary.
Conveyor and Transport Assemblies
1. Stop all jobs and ensure that all motors are stopped.
2. Check the transport area once a shift. Open the clamshell (Figure 5-18)
and clear the area of paper debris, dust, envelope flaps, etc.
