-
FILTER/REGULATOR/LUBRICATOR (FRL)
-
Check the oil level and refill as necessary
-
Adjust lubricator- one drop of oil every 15 cycles of the machine
-
Air pressure - 90 PSI (6 BARS)
-
OIL COOLER
-
Remove dirt and dust from heat transfer surface by brushing the fins and tubes and blowing loose dirt off with air hose. If the surface is greasy, the motor should be removed and the fins and tubes brushed or sprayed with a mild alkaline solution or a non flammable degreasing fluid. Follow with a hot water rinse, and dry thoroughly.
-

-
Inspect unit for loose bolts and connections, rust, corrosion, and dirty or clogged heat transfer surface (cooling cool)
-
Lubricate the moving mechanical parts with a light machine oil
-
Grease all bearings and rollers every 900 hours using Shell Alvania #2 Grease
-
Inspect the belt for wear and proper tension
-
Clean all surfaces
-
Inspect filter regulator lubricator for proper pressure and oil level. If low, add Tellus Oil 22 or a 22 grade pneumatic oil
