FOLLOWER WHEEL REMOVAL:

In most cases, the follower wheel and/or out- put bearing cannot be removed without removing the major portion of any support structure and fixtures. An overhead crane or similar device must be used to lift the follower wheel and output bearing. In some cases, the support structure and fixtures can be lifted two to three feet above the unit and support- ed by appropriate scaffolding. The follower

wheel and output bearing can then be removed with a boom crane or similar device. CAMCO recommends using professional machinery riggers for this purpose. The assistance of a CAMCO trained serviceman is recommended.

1.Use the motor drive package to position the input shaft keyway such that the cam is just entering dwell.

Note: For most Camco E-Series Index Drives this is ten to fifteen (10˚ - 15˚) degrees clock- wise or counter-clockwise from the mid-dwell position.
