LUBRICATION/MAINTENANCE
Pile Feeder
Vacuum Solenoid Valve The vacuum at the suction wheel is controlled by a
solenoid valve (Figure 32). This can be quickly and easily
removed to clean the piston by loosening the clamping
springs. Be careful not to damage the piston and cylinder.
See Figure 17.
Gear Reducer Check fluid level annually. Check for wear. Refer
to parts manual for part number.
O-Rings (on vacuum wheel) See Figure 18.
Vacuum Pump Loss of vacuum and blow can be caused by clogged filters.
Check periodically. Check vanes for wear after 15,000
hours of service. Refer to parts manual for ordering parts.
Register
Flat Belt Drive Shaft (hex shape) Check for wear periodically. Lubricate with Baum
Lubricant "W". Lithium base grease or equivalent
periodically.
Support Bars Lubricate the three support bars on which the register
guide slides periodically using Lithius base grease.
Folder
Handwheel Lubricate bi-annually with commercial grade
lubricating oil.
Fold Rolls WARNING: Never clean fold rolls while the machine is
running.
With the folder turned off, rub down the fold rolls with a
cloth dampened with "Surewash". Never immerse fold
rolls into the washing solvent. After cleaning, they should
be rubbed down with a clean dry cloth.
Gear Drive The helical gear drive is lubricated by an automatic
grease dispenser located inside the LH guard. Use
the label on the LH guard to record lubrication change
date [It should be changed every 9 months]. To activate
the dispenser, screw the eye bolt (Figure 33-1) into the lid
(33-2) of the dispenser until ring (33-3) comes off. Shake
the cannister when installing to insure that it rattles,
signifying that it has been activated. See parts manual for
replacement dispensers.
WARNING: Never open grease dispenser. Even when
empty, container remains under pressure. If damaged,
caustic liquid may leak out. If contact is made with skin,
flush repeatedly with water.
Pullout Tires Check periodically for wear, uneven tires can cause the
sheet to twist.
