12.3. Cleaning the pressing tool


GB-06912

NOTE!
Machine must be in home position.

Procedure
• Remove the tool from the tool holding fixture.
• On the pressing tool for steel rings, remove the retaining pins.
• Dismantle the tool (if the piston sticks, press it out of the matrix using a plastic
or aluminium piston).
• Clean all parts with a soft cloth. Use neutral, non-aggressive cleaning fluid.

NOTE!
Do not use sandpaper!

NOTE!
Ensure that the sharp edges on the upper face of the piston are not blunted.
Rounded piston edges lead to fouling, and cause the tool to stick.

• Reassemble the tool components.


• On the pressing tool for steel rings, refit the retaining rings.
• Insert the tool into the tool holding fixture.
• Engage the locating fixture to prevent the tool from rotating.

NOTE
After cleaning, press five pellets.
