Maintenance
Vacuum Pump
Refer to the Vacuum Pump Operation and Service
Manual (P/N 86269820) for specific instructions.
Lubrication:
We recommend that you use AEON PD-
XD synthetic lubricant. AEON PD-XD synthetic
lubricant is formulated especially for positive
displacement blower service to provide maximum
protection for all operation temperatures.
NOTE: AEON PD-XD synthetic lubricant is the oil
which PROCHEM puts in the vacuum pump at the
factory. Topping off or adding petroleum oil to
synthetic oil is NOT recommended.
1.
Check the oil level
daily
to assure the proper level.
PROPER LEVEL
cannot be overemphasized. Too
little oil will ruin bearings and gears. Too much oil
will cause overheating. Use the illustration as a
guide when adding oil.
2.
To prevent rust from building up inside the vacuum
pump (if moisture exists) we have provided a lubri-
cation cup on the front of the unit.
First run the unit at least
1 minute
to remove any
moisture from the vacuum pump. Next, fill the lubrica-
tion cup with water displacing lubricant, for
5 seconds
while the unit is running and the vacuum inlets are
sealed. Do this at the end of
each working day
.
3.
Drain, flush and replace oil every
1000 hours or
yearly, whichever comes first
. Change oil more
frequently if inspection so indicates.
Vacuum pump oil capacities are as follows:
•
Shaft end = 5/8 quart
•
Gear end = 1 quart
4.
Vacuum pump lubrication is vital to performance of
the pump. Failure to follow the maintenance
schedule can lead to permanent damage to your
blower.
