Installation and Maintenance

Maintenance (1) Weekly Inspection (a) Check the oil level by means of the dipstick or oil level plug and if necessary, top up with the recommended grade of  bricant. (b) Ensure that breathers are cleaned regularly. Care must be taken not to paint over the breathers, otherwise pressure will build up, resulting in oil leakage. (c) On units having grease lubricated bearings, add two shots of grease from a grease gun, or where screw-in type lubricators are fitted, screw in the lubricator two turns and refill when necessary with the recommended grease. (2) Oil Changes  Regular oil changes are essential to ensure that the unit gives long and trouble-free service. The frequency at which the oil should be changed is determined by the following factors:- (a) Oil temperature----unit operating under load. (b) Type of oil----plain or containing additives. (c) Environment----humidity, dust etc. (d) Operating conditions----shock loading etc. At elevated temperatures the effective life of the oil is very much reduced. This is most pronounced with oil containing fatty and E.P. additives. To prevent unit damage through lubricant breakdown, the oil should be renewed as shown in the following tables:

Using Oil Containing Additives Temp.0C Adaptables Other Units 75 or less 2500 hr. or 6 months 5000 hr. or 12 months 80 1500 hr. or 6 months 3000 hr. or 6 months 85 1000 hr. or 3 months 2000 hr. or 6 months 90 750 hr. or 3 months 750 hr. or 3 months ---whichever is the shorter period

Using Plain Mineral Oil Temp.0C Adaptables Other Units 75 or less 2500 hr. or 6 months 5000 hr. or 12 months 80 2000 hr. or 6 months 3500 hr. or 6 months 85 1500 hr. or 3 months 2500 hr. or 6 months 90 1000 hr. or 3 months 1000 hr. or 3 months ---whichever is the shorter period
