CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

The DB T Model 3’s are precision machines. It is essential that they be operated and maintained with this in mind. It’s important to inspect the machine at initial start-up and after each use to ensure that no damage or plant material build-up has occurred and that the tumbler spins freely.
In addition, it is highly recommended to clean the machine after every day of use. This ensures that the Blade Sheet and Tumbler are kept lubricated and that resin does not build-up and affect performance. This is especially important if the machine has been stored for an extended period of time.

CLEANING
Remove Tumbler and Blade sheet and cover with a thick coat of cooking oil (olive, vegetable, etc.). Let sit for 3-12 hours. Using warm/hot water, concentrated dish soap and a non-metallic dish scrubber, clean the Tumbler and other machine components by hand. Alternatively you can pressure wash with hot water, at up to 1500 psi on fan spray  setting. After pressure washing, run machine for 15 minute to allow components to dry.
Read full CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE instructions before cleaning.

When to Clean:
Depending on the material being processed and the frequency of use, the slots of the Tumbler may need to be cleaned after each use or periodically.
Indications that machine requires cleaning

• Reduced trim quality
• Visible build-up of material in the Tumbler slots which obscure the sharp edge of the slots
• Visible evidence of material on Blade Sheet
• Excessive noise (machine should run quietly so that you may converse normally when it is running)

REMOVING OBSTRUCTIONS
If the rotating Tumbler becomes restricted or clogged:
Stop the motor and Make sure that all rotating parts have come to a complete stop. Disconnect the trimmer’s power cord. Use a wooden stick to clear the obstruction.

and is tightened appropriately Check that machine is free of excessive debris.
Ensure that machine is clean and the Tumbler can be rotated without power under manual force.
During use| Although not required, application of a food grade lubricant to Tumbler and Blade Sheet can help reduce resin build up.
After each use| For best performance and longevity, clean trimmer after every use or if plant material is visibly affecting the trim quality or speed of the trimmer.
Every 10 hours  of operation| To maximize Blade Sheet life, rotate orientation of blade sheet every 10 hours or when visible signs of wear are identified. Although not required, this will extend the life of the Blade Sheet.

PRESSURE WASHING THE DBT MODEL 3

NOTICE: Motor & Speed Control Box are NOT waterproof. DO NOT GET WET.Remove when necessary. Avoid spraying the bearings (located at theends of the brush). These components are not intended to be waterproof and water damage is excluded from warranty coverage.

SAFETY

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Some of the most important safety precautions follow. However, we cannot warn you of every conceivable hazard that can arise in performing maintenance. Only you can decide whether or not you should perform a given task. Failure to properly follow maintenance instructions and precautions can cause you to be seriously hurt or killed.  Always follow the procedures and precautions in this owner’s manual. Centurion Pro trimmers are designed to trim excess plant material from a variety of herbal material.  Other uses could result in injury to the operator or damage to the trimmer and other property. Injuries and property damage from trimmers can be prevented by following all  instructions in this manual and on the trimmer.
The most common hazards are discussed below, along with the best way to protect yourself and others.

Safety Precautions
Make sure all motors are off and power cords are unplugged before you begin any maintenance or repairs.
Read the instructions before you begin, and make sure you have the tools and skills required.

AVOID ROTATING TUMBLER
The DBT Model 3 Tumbler can cause serious injury, cuts and even amputate fingers or hands. Keep hands, arms, and body away from the Tumbler whenever the Tumbler is in motion. Keep hair, clothing, and jewelry away from the Tumbler. If you need to work around the trimmer to clear or clean plant material for any reason, always shut off the  electric motor and disconnect the trimmer’s power cord from the AC outlet. Use a wooden stick to remove any obstruction or debris. Never put your hand into the  Tumbler while the machine is running; serious personal injury could result.

AVOID BLADE SHEET
The DBT Model 3’s Blade Sheet can cause serious cuts and even amputate fingers and hands. Keep Trim Trays and Tumbler Lids in place at all times while machine is operating. If you need to work around the trimmer to clear or clean plant material for any reason, always shut off the electric motors and disconnect the trimmer’s power cord from the AC outlet.

CLEAR OPERATION AREA
Before operating the trimmer, carefully inspect the surrounding area and remove all hazards that could cause you to trip, slip, or fall into the trimmer. Anything which can be grabbed by the rotating Tumbler is a potential hazard to you and others. Look for hazards and remove them from the work area. Tie back loose clothing and long, loose hair. Remove any and all jewelry.

KEEP GUARDS AND SHIELDS IN PLACE
Guards, Shields, Trim Trays and Tumbler Lids are designed to protect you from touching moving components. For your safety and the safety of others, keep all shields in place when the trimmer is running.

TURN MOTOR OFF WHEN NOT OPERATING THE TRIMMER
If you need to leave or step away from the trimmer for any reason, always make sure to turn the motor off.

OPERATE ON FLAT SURFACE
Do not operate on slopes. To avoid overturning, only operate the trimmer on flat surfaces. Control the trimmer carefully when transporting it across uneven ground or slopes. Do not push the trimmer down or across steep slopes: the trimmer could overturn, causing damage to the machine or injury to the operator and/or bystanders.

OPERATOR RESPONSIBILITY
Know how to stop the trimmer quickly in case of emergency. Understand the use of all trimmer controls. Never permit anyone to operate the trimmer without proper instruction. Do not let children operate the trimmer.

SAFE OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
– Before operating the trimmer for the first time, please review both the BEFORE YOU START section and the TRIMMER SAFETY section.
– Even if you have operated other trimmers, to take time to become familiar with how the Centurion Pro works.
– Never operate Centurion Pro machines while under the influence of drugs, alcohol or prescriptions, including over-the-counter cold/flu/allergy medications.
– Protective clothing and eye and/or hearing protection should be worn during operation.
– For your safety, do not operate while wearing loose fitting clothing, jewelry, etc..
– Rotating machinery parts can entangle loose clothing, long hair or dangling jewelry resulting in serious injury or death.
– Long hair should be secured in a manner that keeps it away from mechanical parts.

TUMBLER DOES NOT ROTATE UNDER MANUAL FORCE

1. Tumbler and Blade sheet are excessively dirty. Clean Tumbler and Blade Sheet; excessive plant material builts up on these surfaces and causes excess friction.
2. Tension on Blade Sheet is too tight. Reduce tension on Blade Sheet by releasing the pawl and rotating the tension knob in a counter clockwise direction until the Tumbler can easily be rotated under manual force and the Blade Sheet is in contact with the Tumbler.

ELECTRIC MOTORS WILL NOT START OR HAVE LOW POWER

1. No electric power from the outlet. Plug trimmer into a functional electrical outlet.

2. Outlet is overloaded. Check that breaker is not overloaded and has not tripped. If tripped, switch plug to a different circuit.

3. Extension cord is faulty. Check extension cord is rated appropriately for the distance and current. Do NOT use a longer cord unless the wire size is larger.
   Undersized extension cords may cause an under-voltage, over-current condition which could damage or destroy the drive motor and void the motor warranty.

4. Overcurrent circuit has been exceeded. Determine cause of excessive circuit resistance which may include: overloaded outlet, faulty extension cord, bad outlet, underrated generator, excessively dirty machine, incorrectly tensioned Blade Sheet or obstruction between Tumbler and another part of machine. Once source of  resistance has been identified and resolved, reset circuit by pressing small button on control panel for 3 seconds then operate machine normally.

THE CIRCUIT BREAKER KEEPS TRIPPING.

1. This is caused by a cord that is too long or undersized. Your cord must be no more than 25ft long and the same gauge of thickness as the main cord.
2. Also, ensure the machine is not sharing a circuit with other devices and the correct size breaker is present. Circuit sharing can significantly decrease the power being supplied to the devices therefore causing the breaker to trip.
3. Test your electrical current to make sure it is producing consistent power. We recommend having a certified electrician set up the proper power supply. This will ensure  your power source is supplying the correct electricity. If you have not done this, have a certified electrician come and test your electrical current to ensure it complies with the electrical requirements.

MY TUMBLER IS NOT SPINNING.

1. If its not spinning, check for obstructions between Tumbler and Blade Sheet.
2. Ensure that the Tumbler is fully on the drive shaft with the drive pins engaging on the Tumbler plate.

THE PRODUCT IS NOT COMING OUT TRIMMED.

1. Tumbler and/or Blade Sheet are excessively dirty. Clean Tumbler and Blade Sheet.
2. Make sure that the Blade Sheet is tightened onto the Tumbler.
3. Check plant to make sure that moisture content is between 8-10% and that the leaves are snappy and dry, not bendy and pliable.

MY SIDE DRIVE IS HOT.

1. Your machine may be overworking due to a voltage drop in your power supply. This can happen if you’re using an extension cord that is too long or undersized. You can
   only use an extension cord with a maximum length of 25ft.

2. Use a voltage tester to test your electrical current to ensure you have the correct voltage. We recommend having a certified electrician come in and make sure
   your power supply is consistent.

3. Having a motor on for an extended period can be the reason for overheating. Allow the motor to cool down by turning the machine off for an hour, every 5 hours of use.

MACHINE MAKES A LOUD SCRAPING OR CLICKING SOUND.

1. Tumbler and/or Blade Dheet are excessively dirty. Clean Tumbler and Blade Sheet.
2. Tumbler and/or Blade Sheet are Damaged and need to be replaced.

HOW EASY IS IT TO CLEAN?
Please see the detailed cleaning instructions throughout this manual. Remove Tumbler and Blade Sheet and cover with a thick coat of cooking oil (olive, vegetable, etc.). Let sit for 3-12 hours. Using warm/hot water, concentrated dish soap and a non-metallic dish scrubber, clean the Tumbler and other machine components by hand. Alternatively you can pressure wash with hot water, at up to 1500 psi on fan spray setting. After pressure washing, run machine for 15 minute to allow components to dry. We recommend to clean your after every day of use, but it depends on your strain. We know the importance of down time during a harvest so we wanted to make this processas easy as possible.

ARE YOUR MACHINES BUILT TO AN INDUSTRIAL STANDARD?
We do not compromise quality for cost savings. All CenturionPro Solutions machines are composed of the highest quality materials available in North America and each  machine is put through a comprehensive quality control inspection. We only use brand name components in the build out of our machines which enables us to have the  comfort in giving you a 3 year trimmer warranty. With proper maintenance these machines will last you well over a decade.

HOW MUCH PRODUCT SHOULD BE IN THE TUMBLER AT ONE TIME?
The Tumbler should be 40-60% full when trimming.

WHAT IS THE MAINTENANCE LIKE?
We have several video tutorials on our website with how to fully service your machine. These step by step DIY videos make it very easy to do everything necessary to  maintain your machine. All parts can be ordered through any hydroponic store nationwide.

WHAT IS THE OPTIMAL ROOM TEMPERATURE TO TRIM?
Use your CenturtionPro machine in 50-60 °F (10- 15 °C) room to get the best performance. Cooler temperatures prevent excessive sticking to machine components.

WHY IS MY PRODUCT STICKING TO THE INSIDE OF THE TUMBLER?
If you find that product is sticking to the inside of the Tumbler, first clean the Tumbler. When you reassemble it, make sure the top brush bristles are poking through 1/4″ into the Tumbler.
