Maintenance
For economical and efficient operation of the VersaLoop™, proper maintenance with lubrication has to be
done periodically. Poor maintenance leads to reduced efficiency, excessive wear and increase in
downtime.
Important
• Keep all safety covers and devices in place during maintenance.
• Replace any parts that are damaged or missing.
• Shut off the power and lockout the drive for adjustments, servicing or cleaning.
• Never clean, adjust or lubricate a machine that is in operation.
Covers
• Check the covers to see if they are properly adjusted and fastened securely.
• Covers should be clear of the chains and paddles or sprockets.
• If any covers are damaged or worn out, replace them immediately.
Bearings
• The bearings should be lubricated at regular intervals, approximately once annually.
• Check bearings for wear and that the locking collars are secure.
Sprockets
• Inspect the condition of VersaLoop™ chain sprockets for teeth wear.
• Make sure the sprockets are aligned at the shaft center.
• Replace worn or damaged sprockets.
• It is recommended to replace the chain when replacing the damaged sprockets.
