Oiling & Lubrication

Prawnto Oil Is Your Friend! Proper oiling helps prevent friction, chattering, and heat damage to moving parts, keeping your Prawnto operating smoothly.

Warning — Action Required Before Use! Apply Prawnto Oil to the Feeder Disc and Roller Disc contact points before operating your machine for the first time and before each shift.

1. When To Apply Prawnto Oil

• Before first use: Oil the disc contact points before operating your new machine.
• Before each shift: Apply oil before beginning production.
• During the first week: Apply oil several times throughout the day as the discs break in.
• After cleaning: Apply a light coating of oil to the disc contact points.
• Whenever you hear chattering or squealing: Stop the machine and check the disc contact points for proper lubrication before continuing operation.
  

2. Where And How To Apply Oil

Apply Prawnto Oil to the contact points between Feeder Discs #313 and Roller Disc Assembly #314.

Cut the smallest possible opening in the oil bottle tip so oil can be dispensed in droplets.



Additional Oiling — High-Pitched Squeal: If you hear a high-pitched squeal caused by contact between Seal Washer #427 and MLG Stainless Steel Plate #506, turn OFF and unplug your Prawnto before applying oil between these components. If the noise continues, contact Team Prawnto for assistance.
