LIST.

The normal operation of the Bon Floor Stripper
produces extreme dirt and dust, along with levels of
random vibration. Before operating the BON FLOOR
STRIPPER, 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):

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 Bon Floor Stripper 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.

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.

b) To lubricate the exciter bearing housing casting.
The exciter unit utilizes a sealed type ball bearing.
