5.
Inspect for loose or broken parts. Inspect each blade for sharpness and
cracking. Inspect all fasteners, individual parts, operator controls and
safety devices for proper function. Tighten fasteners as necessary.
Replace any worn or damaged part or assembly.
6.
Remove all loose material accumulations, dirt and grease on
internal/external surfaces to prevent safety hazards, poor performance
and reduced service life. Use proper dust collection system as necessary
to remove most accumulation then use safety type solvent for final RIP-R-
STRIPPER cleaning. Failure to clean RIP-R-STRIPPER can result in
formation of dried material build-up reducing bearing service life and
increase vibration levels felt by operator during operation.
7.
Inspect interior sections of transmission mount and exciter for material
build-ups. Clean and remove material build-ups as needed.
IMPORTANT:
Electric motor is an enclosed, fan cooled design. Keep power
head housing air vents clear of material accumulations for proper air
flow/cooling.
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT use thinner, benzene, or other volatile solvents that
can attack rubber/plastic components when cleaning RIP-R-STRIPPER.
8.
Inspect RIP-R-STRIPPER operator handle and power head ON/OFF
switches for proper function. If damaged or worn, replace.
9.
Inspect operator handle grip surfaces for moisture, pitch, oil or grease
and are not cracked, damaged or worn. If full of dirt or pitch, clean. If
loose, damaged and/or worn or attachment bolts are missing, replace.
10. Inspect operator handle for structural integrity, cracks or abrasions.
11. Inspect all safety and operation decals for proper condition. If any decal
becomes damaged and/or unreadable, replace.
12 SERVICE/REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
The following information is intended for specific service/repair situations for the
RIP-R-STRIPPER. Information is for reference only and is not intended to be all
inclusive.
1.
Use factory approved replacement parts/accessories only for
servicing/repair purposes.
2.
All service/repairs not described in this manual must be done by a
dedicated service center following a specific service/repair manual. DO
NOT service/repair RIP-R-STRIPPER unless designated service/repair
technician has received adequate, professional instruction regarding
proper procedures.
3.
STOP RIP-R-STRIPPER BEFORE performing service and repair per
STOPPING RIP-R-STRIPPER in OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS section
of Operator’s Manual.
4.
Remove accessory blade per INSTALLING & REMOVING ACCESSORY
BLADE in MACHINE SET-UP section of Operator Manual and inspect for
sharpness and cracking. Sharpen blade per SHARPENING
ACCESSORY BLADE in SERVICE/REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS section of
this manual. Replace blade if severely worn or damaged.
5.
Visually inspect RIP-R-STRIPPER per MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
STEPS 5 through 11 of this manual.
6.
Inspect rubber elastomeric mounts for damage and/or wear. Established
service limits for mounts are 36 months or 150 hours operational hours,
whichever comes first.
7.
Inspect exciter flywheel support bearing, mounted in exciter plate, for
excessive wear and smooth rotation. Clean area to remove material
residue build-ups.
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT use thinner, benzene, or other volatile solvents that
can attack rubber/plastic components when cleaning RIP-R-STRIPPER.
LUBRICATION
Intervals will vary dependent on machine use and operating environments. In
general, lubrication should be performed after every 8 hours of continuous use.
Lubricants Required:
1 each, container dry film lubricant
1 each, grease conforming to NLGI #2 EP GC/LB specifications
1.
Lubricate caster wheel bearing surfaces with dry film lubricant. DO NOT
use other type lubricants that can attract foreign materials reducing
service life.
2.
Exciter flywheel support bearing is sealed and will not normally require
lubrication during normal service life.
WARNING
•
Properly dispose of all accumulated floor covering
materials per OSHA and EPA codes/regulations.
•
Many materials can be classified as hazardous requiring
proper disposal procedures.
•
Contact applicable government agencies for specific
information.
