You will need a waste bin, collecting container and vacuum cleaner for the daily cleaning work.


Carry out the cleaning work in the order shown in the diagram to keep periods of stoppage to a
minimum. 

: Press the Stop button on the first station when the gantry is over the placement position.
This will stop it outside your working area.

: Open the protective hood.

(PSW\WKHUHMHFWELQ 

a Remove the reject bin and empty it into the collecting container.


We recommend that you empty the reject bin every day. In this way, you will be able to see whether
any components are being rejected frequently. Ascertain the cause of the fault using the track
error menu or MaDaMaS (pick-up reliability). 

s Vacuum all around the reject bin location and then replace it in the machine.


Do not leave any loose components inside the placement machine since they could drop between
moving parts and cause malfunctions.
