Horizontal Adjustment (cont.) 

 
 

Once  all measurements confirm that the machine is level then the 
adjustable feet should be locked in their positions. 

 

 

3.3 

Heating System 

 

 

The oil drum was filled with heat tranfer oil

 (mineral based, suggested 

brand name: Total™) with specifications: 
 

 

Density: 0.83-0.87 g/cm³ at 20°C 

 

Viscosity: 21-31 mm²/s at 50°C 

 

Flash point (open to air): 173°C 

 

Distillation range (2% v/v): 340°C 

 

Maximum temperture during use: 320°C 
 

Under normal usage the heating oil can be used for up to 3 years before 
replacement, although it may be necessary to ‘top-up’ the drum via the 
oil tank from time to time. 
 

N.B. 
Replacement of parts/heating oil should not be undertaken by the 
end user without firstly consulting an Adkins engineer. All parts 
should be supplied and or approved by A Adkins and Sons Limited. 
 

 

3.4 

Noise

 

 

 

The rollers and bearings may expand and become noisey in operation

 

when they are heated to certain temperatures. This is a normal 
phenomenon and does not impare operation.

 

 
 

3.5

 

Cleaning 

 
 

Keep clean and tidy so that there is no dirt falling into the electric 
circuit box and transducer.

  Always keep the electrical coverings in 

place to avoid electrical shok and/or death. 
 

There is a Teflon™ coating on the oil drum roller

 that should not be 

scratched or cleaned with  acidic chemicals, this is important as the oil 
drum is a non-warranty part. 

 
 
3.6

 

Lubricating 

 
 

All bearings should be lubricated with lithium based grease with a 
temperature flash point of not less than 240°C 

(464°F).
