Maintenance
This section contains the recommended scheduled, routine, and preventive maintenance procedures for your
Axiom X-1000 Series Dispensing System. Performing the recommended maintenance procedures at the
intervals suggested in this section will increase system life and ensure high quality dispensing performance
for every production run.
Machine Status
Unless otherwise specified, the dispensing system may be left powered ON while performing the following
maintenance procedures. Lifting the Hatch to access the dispensing area will automatically activate the
Safety Interlock putting the system in a low-power state.
CAUTION!
Avoid opening the Hatch while a dispensing program is running or the workpiece
may be not be completely dispensed.
Hazardous Materials
Some maintenance procedures involve the use of hazardous materials. Always follow all applicable national
and local statutes and regulations, facility safety practice, and the material manufacturer's Material Safety
Data Sheet (MSDS) recommendations including:
Personal protective equipment (such as rubber gloves, safety glasses, thermal gloves)
Disposal of contaminated items (such as purge boots, fluid syringes, cleaning cloths)
Material flammability
WARNING!
CAUTION!
A trained service technician must perform any maintenance or servicing not included
in this section.
Maintenance

Scheduled Maintenance
Following a routine maintenance schedule can prevent part degradation and ensure high quality
performance for every production run. There are several simple procedures you can perform on a regular
basis to ensure quality dispensing and optimize system performance.
The maintenance schedule for the X-1000 Series Dispensing System is predicated on normal operation. The
maintenance task, interval, and instructions are summarized in Table 5-1.
"
NOTES The recommendations are for systems operating in a 24-hour, 7-days a week production
environment. Except for the daily and weekly requirements, maintenance for single-shift
operations may be performed at less frequent intervals.
Performing a visual inspection in conjunction with a scheduled maintenance shutdown may
optimize your preventive maintenance effort.
Record Keeping
Record keeping is essential to efficient maintenance. The type of maintenance performed (such as
preventive and parts replacement) should be recorded in maintenance records for each model and serial
number. Dates, part numbers of replaced parts, and other pertinent data should accompany the maintenance
record.
"
NOTE
Keep records of dispensing system wear characteristics unique to your production methods.
These records can then be used for planning purposes.
