3. Proceed with the replacement of the worn trolley.
4.
Screw the new trolley onto the central tunnel using the same bolts.
5. Once the replacement is done, reinstall the packer inside the body using an appropriate lifting
device (see Reinstalling the Packer on page 55).
6. Run the packer for a few cycles to make sure the new trolley has been properly installed.
Replacing the T-Track
With the packer cycling back and forth more than a thousand times each day, the T-Track may show
some signs of excessive wear. These may include but are not limited to bent, torn or scratched. In
such a situation, the replacement of the T-Track is required for optimum performance of the packer.
It will help the packer to move more smoothly with less sideway and/or up-and-down motions.
To replace the T-Track, do the following:
1.
Remove the packer from the body. See Removing the Packer on page 45.
2. Remove the T-Track. To do so:
2 a.
Using a grinder or cutting tool, cut all the stitch welds that hold the T-Track to its base.
2 b.
Remove the T-Track.
Be careful when handling the T-Track out of the body.
2 c.
Clean the hopper floor and wall surfaces.
3.
Install the new T-Track on the T-Track base.
Warning!
When reinstalling the packer always ensure total clearance to avoid any accidents.
