The AutoCure™6000 will require some basic maintenance when used on a regular basis. Failure to
do so may degrade the performance of the unit.
Disconnect main power at the source before performing any maintenance procedures.
Actuator
1. Periodically check clevis ends for wear, cracks or distortion.
2. Periodically check the shoulder bolt/nut and 3/8” diameter rod for excessive wear.
3. Periodically apply a few drops of oil at these pivot points.
Pivot Points
1. Single head units have three (3) castle nut/spring combinations and two (2) shoulder bolts with
Nylock nuts. If pivot points become loose, heater positioning will not be maintained. Check
these points monthly.
2. Dual head units have seven (7) castle nut/spring combinations and two (2) shoulder bolts with
Nylock nuts. If pivot points become loose, heater positioning will not be maintained. Check
these points monthly.
3. To adjust spring tension; remove cotter pin, tighten castle nut (usually one or two notches) and
replace cotter pin through bolt.
