MAINTENANCE
MECHANICAL PART OF THE MACHINE:
For an optimal operation of the machine, it is recommended that you keep some parts clean and
always lubricated. The cleaning should ALWAYS be done with the machine disconnected from the
electrical power source and the compressor.
The pedal we press to operate the machine should always be clean and clear of any debris that could
prevent its normal operation.
The exterior of the machine should be cleaned with a rag that will not leave threads, so that the
threads can not be stuck to the machine.
The head of the machine has exterior grease cups. You must use a manual pressure oil can to inject
oil (the oil type to be used should be “SAE 40”) into the grease cups two or three times a week. We
recommend to do this at the end of the journey, and clean up the possible excess oil the next day.
During the first month of operation it must be done twice per week. After the first month it only
needs to be done once a week.
If the machine is going to go for a long period of time without use, it will be necessary to do a
general cleaning, and greasing in the indicated spots, disconnecting it from the compressor or from
the power source (if it has any electrical devices), and then cover it so that it is protected from the
dust and/or humidity.
ELECTRICAL PART OF THE MACHINE:
The electrical part of the machine the IMO V3 is clearly marked with a yellow triangle and does not
need any type of maintenance. Do not open unless directed to do so by Sinclair.
The electrical parts of the machine: motors, cables, etc, come completely sealed and secured through
nuts. The electrical parts need no maintenance, do not open or manipulate them.
Parts nº 149 flywheel optical detector and nº 338 optical washer detector, should be kept clean, and
to achieve this, they should be wiped with a dry cloth.
If an optional laser light nº 155 has been installed, it needs no cleaning or maintenance, and
remember that you must never shine it directly in anybody’s eyes, since it could be harmful.
Both the main motor and the two hopper box motors are totally sealed and do not require any
maintenance.
