REVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
As with all machinery, proper attention and maintenance is the key to long component life,
maximum performance, and safe operation. By spending a few minutes reading and following
these preventive measures, you should reduce the downtime and prolong the life of your system.
It is important to understand that these maintenance schedules are minimum recommendations.
Highlight Industries, Inc. cannot possibly know, evaluate or advise the various trades in all
schedules of periodic maintenance. Accordingly, anyone who maintains or services a stretch
wrap machine must first satisfy himself/herself as to the schedules of preventive maintenance
based on cycling operation and environmental locations.
Lock-out/ Tag-out Procedures
Be sure that anyone performing any type of maintenance on this equipment is familiar with and is
adhering to the lock-out/tag-out procedures set forth by the General OSHA or the State OSHA
guidelines.
Visual Checks
Visual checks should be conducted at least once per month:
1. Keep the machine and surrounding area as clean as possible, especially near moving
components.
2. Check for loose hardware, especially set screws located in: sprocket hubs, bearing hubs,
and flanges.
3. Check for oil leaks around the speed reducers.
4. Check for dry seals at the bearings.
5. Check for chain wear and proper tension on the power roller stretch sprockets. The correct
amount of chain tension can be checked by pulling the chain taut and having 3/8” slack.
6. Check for loose electrical connections and for frayed cords and cables. Replace
immediately any damaged cords and cables.
WARNING

down and locked out for personnel safety.
