Idler Gear Shaft Assembly: Place the 3 gearsets on the idler shaft (17)
in the proper order according to the type of gear ratio . Refer to photos
# 5, 6, and 7 . Be certain that the (23) gearset with the undercut for the
thrust washer (24) is on the bottom end of the shaft, facing the gearbox
cover (2) .
Lubricate the (51) o-ring with gearbox oil . Place the final drive gear shaft
subassembly (18) into the gearbox and seat the shaft by pressing down
on the gearsets . Hold the idler gear shaft subassembly (17) in your right
hand and place into the gearbox next to the idler shaft upper bearing
(27) . With your left hand holding the idler shaft, move the subassembly
over until the idler shaft (17) drops into the idler shaft upper bearing
(27) . Rotate the gearsets with the right hand to assist in meshing with
the gearsets on the final shaft (18) . Press down on the idler shaft to be
certain that it is seated (see Photo # 8) . Place the 2 thrust washers (24)
with the lapped side facing up (towards the gearbox cover bearings) .
NOTE: the thrust washers (24) are lapped on one side only.
Place the rotor shaft spacer (42) on the rotor shaft (21) . Place tool #
T-8 seal protector on the rotor shaft end . This tool protects the rotor
shaft seals from damage during installation of rotor shaft . Push rotor
shaft thru lower rotor shaft bearing until pinion gear engages with (21)
gearset . Remove the T-8 seal protector from the rotor shaft . Rotate the
rotor shaft to be certain that all of the gears are properly engaged, and
the rotor shaft bearings are aligned .
NOTE: Flow-thru machines do not have rotor shaft seals and therefore
you do not need to use tool # T-8 seal protector when installing the rotor
shaft assembly.
Gearbox Lubrication: Fill the gearbox with oil . The oil level should
just cover the (21) gearset on the final shaft (18) as shown in photo # 8 .
All Lubricated machines are supplied with the following type of oil:
OIL TYPE: Food Grade U.S.D.A Acceptable H-1
QTY: 14 oz. (414 ml.) S.A.E.-90
Note: Flow-thru machines do not have oil in the gearbox, they are
lubricated by the cleaning solution.
Oil Alternatives: For non-food industry applications, H-2 lubricants
can be used such as Keystone Keygear 90, KLC-20/50 or KSL-365 .
Lightweight gear oils SAE 50-90 are also suitable . It should be noted
that heavy weight (140) gear oils or greases will alter the performance
of the machine regarding cycle times .
GEARBOX COVER ASSEMBLY
Use tool # T-6 to press the rotor shaft thrust bearing (21)
into the center bore of the gearbox cover (2) . Use tool
# T-5 to press the idler shaft lower bearing (28) and the final shaft lower
bearing (30) into their respective bores (refer to exploded view) . Install a
new o-ring (54) with lubricant .
Lubricate the bore of the gearbox and the gearbox cover o-ring with
gearbox oil . Align the gearbox cover with the shafts (# 17, 18, 21) and
the dowel pin hole in the gearbox . Press down until o-ring is seated .
Install split washers (57) and gearbox cover screws (56) . Torque
screws to 100 in/lbs for Stainless Steel and 80 in/lbs for Bronze .
Do not overtighten .
ROTOR INSTALLATION
Turn machine right side up . Place rotor (9) on rotor shaft (21) . Install
lockwasher (57) and rotor nut (59) . Tighten the nut while holding pressure
against the rotor with a medium sized screwdriver wedged between the
inlet stem and the rotor or use needle nose pliers to hold a fin on the
rotor . Torque the rotor nut to 100 in/lbs for Stainless Steel and 80 in/lbs
for Bronze . Be certain the rotor nut is tight, and that the rotor shaft is not
rotating while tightening the nut . Rotate the rotor (9) with your finger or
a small screwdriver . The rotor should rotate freely and the tee housing
should begin to move slowly .
NOZZLE HOUSING ASSEMBLY
Bearing Cup Installation:
Lubricate cup O .D . with a small amount of
food grade gearbox oil . Using tool # T-3 and an arbor press, press cup
down into nozzle housing until the flange is seated flat on the nozzle
housing . Repeat procedure for other cup .
Bevel Gear Installation: Clutch Drive: Wipe a small amount of
gearbox oil into the groove of the nozzle housing (5) . Install a new o-ring
(49) . Place the nozzle housing bevel (11) on the nozzle housing . Install
the bevel gear retaining ring (19) with a small screwdriver, be sure the
retaining ring is completely seated in the groove of the nozzle housing .
Pin Drive:
Place the bevel gear dowel pin (44) into the hole in the
nozzle housing . Install a new o-ring (49) . Line up the slot on the bevel
gear with the pin, then install the bevel gear retaining (19) with a small
screwdriver, be sure the retaining ring is completely seated in the groove
of the nozzle housing .
Nozzles and Stream Straighteners: Tap stream straightener into
nozzle with plastic faced hammer . Place a small amount of anti-seize
compound or Teflon tape on the threads and the radius on the end of the
nozzle . Insert the nozzle (7) into nozzle housing (5) and tighten with open
end wrench or adjustable wrench .
NOZZLE HOUSING TO TEE HOUSING ASSEMBLY
1 . Place one of the nozzle housing bearings (33) over the nose of
the tee housing (4), align the locator marks on the tee housing
casting and the back of the bearing (refer to photo #’s 9 & 10) .
This will allow the bearing to fit flush against the tee housing .
Rotate the bearing slightly and it will lock into place against the
ridge cast into the tee housing .
2 . Install one of the nozzle housing seals (50), the spring side facing
outward towards the ports in the tee housing .
3 . Wipe a small amount of gearbox oil on the I .D . of the bearing
cups (34) in the nozzle housing (5) . This reduces the initial friction
between the seals and cups .
4 . Place the nozzle housing assembly (5) over the seal and bearing
on the tee housing .
Nameplate, Bearing & Seal Installation:
1 . Install the outer seal (36), with the spring facing inward toward
the ports in the tee housing .
2 . Align the locator mark on the nozzle housing bearing (33) with
the dot on the nameplate (6) . See Photo #10 . Push the bearing
into the nameplate so that the flange of the bearing is seated
against the nameplate . Install the nameplate and bearing onto
the tee housing nose, check that the name is right side up .
3 . Install the nameplate screws (58) and the lockwashers (57) .
Torque screws to 100 in/lbs for Stainless Steel and 80 in/lbs for
Bronze . Do not overtighten .
