Cleaning, Maintenance and Support

How should I clean and maintain a cold press oil machine?

Direct Answer

Follow the model's operating and cleaning manual, isolate the power before maintenance and use only the approved disassembly and cleaning procedure. Keep food-contact parts clean and dry as specified.

Detailed Engineering Analysis

Ask MMEC for a written schedule covering daily cleanout, inspection, lubrication points and replacement checks. Cleaning methods differ between designs, so do not copy another machine's washing or heating procedure. Keep water away from electrical equipment and use approved cleaning materials. Record wear, leaks, unusual noise and servicing. A short maintenance log helps identify recurring problems and gives the support team useful information when a repair is required.
