13. The cleaning arm drive has been adjusted and
tested at the factory and no additional adjustment
should be required. The manifold drive should rotate
smoothly and the manifold arms should be level with
the tubesheet during rotation, with the bottom of
the nozzles located approximately 1-3 inches above
the tubesheet. However, misalignment can occur
during shipment and installation of the collector.
If this is the case, disconnect power to the drive
assembly as described above, remove the master
chain link on the gear reducer drive chain and rotate
the manifold assembly by hand checking for binding
or misalignment. Using a level, check the air tank
mounting surface in both directions making sure it
is level and parallel to the tube sheet. Correct any
lateral misalignment by loosening the air tank hold
down bolts on top of the H-frame and re-centering
the air tank using the slotted holes. If the air tank is
not parallel to the tube sheet, adjust the 4 leveling
screws under the air tank cross beam supports.
Make sure to tighten the leveling screw lock nuts
when finished. See Cleaning Arm Adjustment for
location of the leveling screws. Retighten and check
the manifold again by rotating it one complete
revolution. The manifold nozzle height can be
adjusted by using the slotted holes on the manifold
arms. Once everything is readjusted, reconnect the
master link on the chain drive.
