Maintenance
To ensure that the RTP 118
®
will have a long operational life, maintenance is essential. This section
includes methods for replacing parts, troubleshooting solutions, and how often to grease and
clean your machines to keep its performance optimal.
General Maintenance Prescriptions
• Use the maintenance checklist (found in the Appendix) before, during, and after machine
operation.
• Make sure all grease points are maintained and regularly lubricated.
• Use an appropriate amount of lubricant. Excess grease can drip into the tablets as they are
formed.
• Before reassembling the machine after cleaning, make sure that the parts are dried and oiled.
• Constantly check for any loose nuts and/or screws before, during, and after machine operation.
• After each run, place the Tooling in an air-tight container and cover in lubricant.
Lubrication
Regularly greasing your machine is vital to prolonging its operational life. Parts that are not
greased properly can make the machine seize up and cause major problems later. LFA
recommends maintaining a lubrication schedule for your RTP 118
®
, which can be found in this
section.
