IKA A 10 basic 0004020700 [21/100] Maintenance and cleaning

Maintenance

If grinding tools wear out over the course of time, espe-

cially as a result of constant grinding of very hard materi-

als, so that rapid grinding with the appropriate quality is

no longer possible. The worn out parts must be replaced.

For replacing grinding tools, see section “Exchanging

and replacing the grinding tools“.

Cleaning

Disconnect the mains plug prior to

cleaning!

Dirty parts in the pulverization area can be cleaned with a

cleaning brush or dry cloth.

If there is heavy accumulation of dirt, the grinding tool and

grinding pot can be disassembled and cleaned in a dish-

washer.

Maintenance and cleaning

Note:

The chamber cap cannot be cleaned in a dishwasher.

After cleaning, all parts can be assembled in reverse se-

quence.

Note: Please pay attention to O-rings during all process.

When O-rings wears out, replace them timely.

For dust-free and avoid cross contamination, we recom-

mend to replace the felt ring in the bushing nut after every

grinding with help of a small screw driver.

Then, grinding pot and grinding tool can be disassembled

and cleaned with a dishwasher or by hand.
