CARE, MAINTENANCE, and CLEANING
INSTRUCTIONS for PLUNGERS and HOPPERS
The plungers and hoppers of your Type K are precision instruments built
from alloy steels and aluminum. They should be handled with care to
insure continued satisfactory performance.
When cleaning aluminum, selection of the right type cleaner is your most
important consideration. Any household dish washing detergent which
is safe for aluminum does a good job of cleaning and does not attack
aluminum. Strong Alkali cleaners, such as lye, soda ash, and tri-sodium
phosphate, will discolor or even corrode aluminum even in weak solu-
tions.
DO NOT HANDLE ROUGHLY or drop on hard surfaces.
DO NOT MIX with other utensils in the sink when washing.
DO NOT ALLOW TO RUST. Always wash parts thoroughly.
DRY COMPLETELY AND THEN LUBRICATE with mineral oil or liquid
shortening before storing or reinstalling in unit.
DO NOT FORCE the machine if it becomes jammed. Disassemble and
remove any obstruction to prevent damage to the plunger.
