Cleaning & Maintenance

Keep your Silent Knight clean and contamination-free.

Made entirely of non-rusting materials, the Silent Knight can be wiped down regularly with a damp cloth or a facility-approved disinfectant wipe. For a more thorough clean, follow these steps from the official IFU.

How often should it be cleaned?

Clean the crusher as needed or as required by your facility's cleaning and disinfection protocol. The official IFU leaves the cleaning frequency to each facility, so follow your local policy.

01

Remove the base screws

Turn the crusher over so the blue base faces up. With a Phillips head screwdriver, remove each of the five screws and keep them together — the centre screw above the label is unique to that location.

02

Lift off the top cover

Turn the crusher upright, holding both the blue base and the top cover in place. Lift the blue handle and lift the top cover off over the handle.

03

Wipe clean

Using a damp cloth with normal detergent and water, wipe the crusher clean, then wipe down with a dry cloth. A facility-approved disinfectant wipe may also be used when indicated.

04

Reassemble & tighten

Place the top tray back onto the base by guiding it over the blue handle. Turn the crusher base-up and tighten each screw clockwise until secure.

When possible, have a facility engineer or authorised personnel remove the top for cleaning. Any further disassembly beyond these steps will void the lifetime warranty.
