Assembling a milk separator generally involves these steps, though specific instructions will vary depending on the model:
-
Prepare the Top Bowl: Begin by placing the rubber washer into the notch of the top bowl's bottom part. This ensures a tight seal and prevents leakage.
-
Insert the Discs: Carefully place the metal discs inside the bowl. The order and type of discs may vary depending on your specific milk separator model. Consult your user manual for the correct arrangement.
-
Install the Partition: Position the plastic partition into the top bowl cover part. This partition often helps direct the flow of milk during separation.
-
Join the Top Bowl Parts: Assemble the two previously prepared parts of the top bowl together. Ensure they fit snugly and securely.
-
Secure the Top Bowl: Screw the top bowl fixing nut to securely attach the top bowl parts. Use the provided key or wrench to tighten the nut firmly, ensuring a tight and leak-proof seal.
Important Considerations:
- Refer to Your Manual: Always consult the user manual specific to your milk separator model. The instructions provided are a general guideline, and variations exist between different models.
- Cleanliness: Ensure all parts are thoroughly cleaned and sanitized before assembly to prevent contamination.
- Correct Disc Order: The order of the discs is crucial for proper separation. Double-check the manual to confirm the correct arrangement.
- Tighten Securely: Properly tightening the fixing nut is essential to prevent leaks and ensure efficient separation. However, avoid over-tightening, which could damage the parts.
- Safety: Handle the metal discs and other components with care, as some edges may be sharp.
Troubleshooting:
If you encounter any issues during assembly, consult your user manual for troubleshooting tips. Common problems include leaks, improper separation, and difficulty assembling the parts.
