Note: The torque should drop to a low level, the same pressure as when the press has been
cleaned. If it is significantly above this torque, it indicates some pulp is left in the vat and
is functioning as a brake shoe against the press rolls. The pulp has to be removed before
starting up the system.

- Stop the dilution pump and wash water pump.
- Stop the shredder conveyor.
Press rolls should stop automatically.
- Dilution conveyor is stopped. Due to interlocking the dilution controller will
switch on manual and close.
