Regrinding The Shearing Blades; Cleaning The Air Filter (Figure 12); Changing The Shearing Head (Figure 13, Option); Storing The Shearing Machine (Figure 14) - Heiniger XTRA Originalbetriebsanleitung

Check that the shearing blades are correctly mounted and that the driv-
X
ing cones of the chicken feet (Fig. 3, item 2) are in the holes provided for
them on the upper blade. Now tighten the shearing pressure adjustment
knob until the upper blade is pressed onto the comb plate and you feel
a slight resistance.

Regrinding the shearing blades

Only work with sharp shearing blades. Replace blunt or defective blades
without teeth. The correct resharpening of shearing blades is only to be
done by special machines or by a specialist. In that case, contact your ser-
vice centre.

Cleaning the air filter (Figure 12)

The air filter element is located on the underside of the motor part of the
machine. The air filter can be removed from the machine for cleaning. Reg-
ular cleaning of the element with a dry brush is essential. Make sure that no
foreign objects get into the machine while cleaning the air filter.
WARNING!
The machine must never be operated without an air filter!

Changing the shearing head (Figure 13, option)

To change the shearing head from "sheep" to "livestock" or vice versa, loos-
en the two screws on the shearing head. Remove one shearing head and
mount the other one (grease the gear Fig. 1a, item 8 if necessary). Retight-
en the two screws.

Storing the shearing machine (Figure 14)

CAUTION!
Only store the shearing machine in dry rooms and in the case
supplied. If liquid is suspected to have entered the machine, do
not switch it on again. There is a danger of electric shock or short
circuit. Hand over the shearing machine to a service centre.
Get into the habit of always giving the shearing machine a good clean after
use, oiled and with the shearing system relaxed in the equipment case,
store the device in a dry and clean location out of the reach of children.
