The equipment shall be totally cleaned and sanitized:
– Before to be used first time;
– After every day’s operation;
– When it has not been used during a long time;
– Before to operate it after a long period unused.
Some parts of the equipment may be removed for cleaning, such as:
– The Protection Lid # 01 (Pic 01);
– The Combs # 02 (Pic 01);
– The Comb Support # 03 (Pic 01);
– The Rolls # 03 (Pic 02);
Read the instructions item 3.3 to place or to remove the Rolls.
Clean all the parts that might get in to contact with the meat with water and neutral soap, wash and dry before to assemble them.
The other parts may be cleaned with a damp cloth.
Never use hard objects as knives, forks or other to clean meat pieces from the Rolls knives. Use a nylon brush.
IMPORTANT Never spray water directly to the equipment.
3.5 Cautions with Stainless Steel
The Stainless Steel may present rust signs, which ARE ALWAYS CAUSED BY EXTERNAL AGENTS, especially when the cleaning or sanitization is not constant and appropriate.
The Stainless Steel resistance towards corrosion is mainly due to the presence of chrome, which in contact with oxygen allows the formation of a very thin protective coat. This protective coat is formed through the whole surface of the steel, blocking the action of external corrosive agents.
When the protective coat is broken, the corrosion process begins, being possible to avoid it by means of constant and adequate cleaning.
Cleaning must always be done immediately after using the equipment. For such end, use water, neutral soap or detergent, and clean the equipment with a soft cloth or a nylon sponge. Then rinse it with plain running water, and dry immediately with a soft cloth, this way avoiding humidity on surfaces and especially on gaps.
The rinsing and drying processes are extremely important to prevent stains and corrosion from arising.
IMPORTANT Acid solutions, salty solutions, disinfectants and some sterilizing solutions (hypochlorites, tetravalent ammonia salts, iodine compounds, nitric acid and others), must be AVOIDED, once it cannot remain for long in contact with the stainless steel.
These substances attack the stainless steel due to the CHLORINE on its composition, causing corrosion spots (pitting).
Even detergents used in domestic cleaning must not remain in contact with the stainless steel longer than the necessary, being mandatory to remove it with plain water and then dry the surface completely.
Use of abrasives: Sponges or steel wool and carbon steel brushes, besides scratching the surface and compromising the stainless steel protection, leave particles that rust and react contaminating the stainless steel. That is why such products must not be used for cleaning and sanitization. Scrapings made with sharp instruments or similar must also be avoided.
Main substances that cause stainless steel corrosion: Dust, grease, acid solutions such as vinegar, fruit juices, etc., saltern solutions (brine), blood, detergents (except for the neutral ones), common steel particles, residue of sponges or common steel wool, and also other abrasives.

General Safety Practices

IMPORTANT If any recommendation is not applicable to your equipment, please ignore it.
The following safety instructions are addressed to both the operator of the machine as well as the person in charge of maintenance.
