5.2 SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
A program of scheduled maintenance should be set up and documented according to your application
and the frequency you use this machine.
The following is a list of some important items that should be included in a scheduled maintenance
program.
Since the 610 Shear can be used for a wide variety of applications, every user must design and implement
a scheduled maintenance program that fits their needs.
1. EVERY 500 HOURS OR SIX MONTHS:
B. Check the condition of all cutting blades on the machine.
C. Check the condition of the bushings in the shear beam. This can be done visually by watching the
beam for vertical movement while the machine is in operation. If vertical movement is noted,
block or support the beam with a lifting device and remove the main pin and check the clearance. If
the clearance exceeds twelve thousandths (.012) of an inch (.3mm), replace the bushing.
2. EVERY 1,500 HOURS OR 1 YEAR:
A. Change the hydraulic fluid in the reservoir and replace the filter. For recommended fluids, SEE SEC-
TION 5.1.
