CLEANING AND INSPECTION
Frequency of tank cleaning is determined by
operating conditions, which may require draining
and cleaning once each week. Clean all foreign
matter from strainer, tank, perforated collection
baskets and control electrodes. Each time tank is
drained and cleaned, check the following:
1. Drive chain and sprockets for wear, alignment,
and proper chain tension.
2. Rubber seal on entering side of drum for tight­
ness. Make certain rubber is not damaged.
