Service

PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE CHECK LIST.

The normal operation of the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER produces extreme dirt and dust, along with levels of random vibration. Before operating the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER, the following service list should be accomplished. This list is for reference only and is not intended to be all inclusive. Other topic areas can be added at the discretion of the owner(s) and/or operator(s):

DANGER

DISCONNECT THE FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER FROM THE EXTENSION CORD AND/OR POWER

SOURCE RECEPTACLE BEFORE PERFORMING ANY SERVICE WORK OR REPAIR. TURN THE ON/OFF SWITCH TO THE OFF POSITION. FAILURE TO PROPERLY DISCONNECT THE FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER FROM THE POWER SOURCE DURING THESE ACTIVITIES CAN RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.

1)Check all fasteners for proper torque values. If a fastener requires retorquing, consult a torque chart for the proper value. Properly discard and replace any worn fastener with a factory approved, replacement part.

2)Check the rubber elastomeric mounts for damage and/or wear. Replace as necessary.

3)Check the external support bearing mounted to the motor shaft for wear and proper alignment. Many loose covering materials that accumulate in and around the support bearing area can be extremely abrasive. These materials can breach the bearing seals and significantly reduce load capacity and service life.

4)Determine the interior sections of the frame are free of material build-up. Such build-ups can restrict the operating process and present a potential safety hazard. Clean and remove any material build-up from the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER after each use.

5)Keep loose materials from accumulating around the motor cooling fan. Remove the fan shroud and clean as necessary.

6)Remove material accumulations from the exterior surfaces of the electric motor. The electric motor is a totally enclosed, fan cooled (TEFC) design. Keep the fan fins clear of material accumulations to enhance air flow over the motor exterior for cooling purposes.

CAUTION

Observe all applicable safety precautions for the solvent.

7)Lubricate the caster wheel bearings with a dry film lubricant. Use of other lubricant types can attract foreign materials and reduce bearing service life.

8)Zerk® type grease fittings are provided in two separate locations:

a) To lubricate the Back Saver™ Blade Control System jackscrew.
