3 GENERAL MACHINE SERVICE
Like any other piece of equipment, your canning machine needs to be cleaned,
lubricated and serviced periodically. Screws loosen, Filters plug up with
contaminates and sensors vibrate out of adjustment. It is important to assign a
technician to learn the system and take good care of it.
•Prior to each use, all screws and sensors should be checked for tightness.
•Following each use, the entire machine should be hosed off (not pressure
washed). A bucket of warm water and dawn soap should be prepared, and the
machine be scrubbed with a soft plastic bristled bush. All water spots should be
polished off using vinegar and rags.
•After cleaning a food grade zero weight grease

finger to the H slide rods and push cylinder rod (push cylinder rod only for MC-
1000 and MC-202 users)
