Ransburg Overhead Electric Reciprocator ER-8100 - Manual (Page 12)

INSTALLATION
READ BEFORE
INSTALLING
RECIPROCATOR
Prior to the reciprocator being lifted into the
vertical position, or operated, the following
precautions must be taken or severe damage
could occur:
• The drive chain is tie-wrapped to the drive
sprocket for shipping. The 6-inch telescoping tube
is cabled at the bottom of the machine to the guide
rollers. The cable and tie-wraps must ONLY be
removed AFTER the machine is completely
installed in the vertical position and prior to
any attempt to run the machine. *Cable and
tie-wraps must be cut and removed. DO NOT
attempt to break the cable and tie-wraps by
jogging the machine.
• Be sure the chain is centered on the sprocket
and the tie-wraps are in place before the machine
is lifted out of its horizontal or shipping position.
• The reciprocator drive must be inspected after
the machine is installed, and before attempting
to jog or run. Visually inspect to assure that:
the chain is centered on the sprocket and properly
engaged and free from the limit switch arms, the
encoder is connected, and all drive components
are secured... at this point the cable and tie-
wraps must be removed and discarded. Only
after this inspection should the reciprocator
by cycled.
• It is advised to jog the machine through the full
stroke prior to running a cycle. It is suggested
that one person is at the control panel and one is
at the motor house... each with communication
capability with each other.
