Follow all safety instructions. Failure to follow the instructions may lead to damage on the machine and mild to severe personal injury.  Make sure to disconnect the machine from the air compressor, before any kind of adjustment and maintenance takes place.  The air pressure should never exceed the recommendations from the suppliers of microducts and fiber. The pressure may never exceed 16 bar, which is the maximum pressure for the MicroFlow blowing machine. WARNING: Exceeding max. pressure may lead to machine damage and mild to severe personal injury.  Observe that the machine is placed on a stable foundation. Make sure that the fiber and duct are placed correctly in the machine.  Make sure you do not touch the fiber too close to the machine because you risk getting your fingers injured, and make sure the fiber does not make loops that might be dangerous to persons around the machine.  Never wear loose clothing WARNING: Loose clothing may become entangled in the machine.  Use hearing protection, if the air compressor is placed nearby.  The operator must make sure that no other persons are close to the machine and cable drums in a way that could be dangerous when the machine is started.  It is always a clear advantage to be well prepared so that you can run the blowing without interruptions. Pausing in the middle of blowing creates a risk of being unable to start again.  Make sure the working environment is clean and tidy to avoid injuries due to stumbling over fiber and equipment. Maintenance The MicroFlow does not require much maintenance if the following recommendations are followed: Compressed air must be clean and dry. Use air filter and water separator. Clean the wheels on a regular basis, at least once a day when the machine is in use. Make sure the sensor arms are clean and can move freely. Check gaskets and rubber belts on wheels for wear and tear on a daily basis, and replace if necessary. NB: Humid and polluted air may influence machine life and performance and may result in increased wear. NB: Failure to maintain and clean the machine may affect machine reliability.
