Pre-operation check list
1. Be certain operators have read and understand the
operators manual. DO NOT skip the safety instruc-
tions at the beginning of this manual.
2.
Top off the gearbox oil if needed. Oil capacities and
sight gauges are illustrated below for the fan gearbox
and centrifugal pump gearbox. Use an
AGMA No.2EP
rated gear lubricant, such as
Mobilgear 626
.
3.
Properly lubricate all grease points as instructed in the
lubrication schedule.
Agitator bearings require only light greasing and
minimal attention. Apply grease only until you feel
resistance. Do not over grease: excess will enter tank.
4.
For oil lubricated pumps (piston actuated diaphragm
pumps) check pump oil level. The level should be above
the half-mark on the transparent fill tube. Top off with
a quality grade 30wt non-detergent motor oil.
5.
Clean suction and discharge strainers.
6.
Check fan blades: blades should be free of nicks and
cracks. The fan guard should be in good repair.
7.
When connecting PTO drivelines: make sure spline locks
snap into the shaft groove; make sure all roll pins are
properly installed.
8.
Check all plumbing lines and connections.
Fill tank with water above the level of the pump.
With suction valve OPEN, run pump to clear air from
the system: fully open relief valve and open discharge
to tank to recirculate.
9.
If pump is vibrating excessively, adjust air-dome pres-
sure
see the pump section of this manual
.
10.
Check tire pressure.
11.
After 1 hour of initial operation, check all fasteners
for tightness. Check belts for alignment and wear.
