How to avoid downtime.
All plant will only give its best if common sense maintenance is carried out. Presona suggest:
* A clean power pack cools down quicker: a dirty one keeps the heat in like a Thermos
* An oil leak lets in air which is bad for your hydraulics change your air filters at the service intervals. This allows your system to breathe: if the filter is blocked air will get in somewhere else—you’ll find out later when your seals leak or break
* Change the oil filter, for dirty oil means sticking or broken valves and pump units
Clean air and oil filters mean correct operating temperature.
* Too high a temperature shortens the life of seals, valves and pumps
* To start and run a baler on too cold an oil is giving money to the pump manufacturer
* If your baler seems to be really busy and doesn’t wait for the incoming paper, check the photocell eyes—they may be blocked
* Skipping the service intervals is short sighted. Seals and filters are cheap compared to breakdowns and downtime.
Presona balers are designed to work round the clock-unattended if necessary. But only if regular maintenance is carried out.
