EM-70 PLASTER/MORTAR MIXER — MAINTENANCE (MIXER)

Inspect Tooth Contact between Main Gear and Drive Pinion

1.Coat 3 or 4 teeth at 3 different positions on the main gear with yellow paint.

2.Rotate the drive pulley in both directions.

3.Inspect the tooth pattern.

4.If gear teeth are not contacting properly (Figure 32), adjust pillow block to correct the problem.

Gear Lubrication

The surface of the pinion and main gear (Figure 33) should be very lightly greased.

Figure 33. Pinion and Bull Gear Lubrication

NOTE

Grease main and pinion gears

every 250

hours of

 

 

operation.

IMPORTANT!

 

Avoid over-greasing.

Excess grease will accumulate contaminates and cause premature wear.

Grease Fittings (Zerk) Maintenance (Electric Motor)

1.There are two grease (Figure 34) fittings at each end of the electric motor that will require lubrication. Lubricate these fittings about every 16 months.

2.Use Poleyrex EM (Exxon Mobil) or equalivant lubricant. Clean grease fitting, apply grease gun to fitting (1/2 shot). Remember too much

grease or injecting grease too quickly can cause premature bearing failure. Slowly apply the recommended amount of grease, taking a miniute or so to apply.

Tires/Wheels/Lug Nuts

Tires and wheels are a very important and critical compo- nents of the trailer. When specifying or replacing the trailer wheels it is important the wheels, tires, and axle are prop- erly matched.

WARNING DamagedWheels

DO NOT attempt to repair or modify a wheel. DO NOT install an inter-tube to correct a leak through the rim. If the rim is cracked, the air pressure in the

inter-tube may cause pieces of the rim to explode (break- off) with great force and can cause serious eye or bodily injury.

TiresWear/Inflation

Tire inflation pressure is the most important factor in tire life. Pressure should be checked cold before operation. DO NOT bleed air from tires when they are hot. Check inflation pres- sure weekly during use to insure the maximum tire life and tread wear.

 

WARNING

Eyesight Hazard

 

 

 

ALWAYS wear safety glasses when removing or installing force fitted parts. Failure to comply may result in serious injury.
