Clutch Unit Service Adjust/Repair
CAUTION:
Disconnect power cord from
power source during all maintenance.
Operational Check 1
1.
Remove the rear cover of the TM-42 unit. Verify
that the clutch control collar is in the locked
position (See Figure 4-2). Insert the 10mm hex wrench into the socket head cap screw. This screw is located in the
center of the flywheel (See Figure 4-1). This screw is spring loaded to prevent being left in the unit.
2.
Attempt to rotate the hex wrench clockwise. If the unit will not turn, it is functioning properly.
3.
Next rotate the input hub/flywheel clockwise by hand.
The input hub/flywheel should be free to rotate. During
this portion of the operational check, the black spring
housing should not rotate. See Figure 4-1.
4.
If the unit fails operational check 1, the clutch unit has
failed internally or the actuator is not functioning properly
and the clutch unit must be replaced.
CAUTION:
By disengaging the actuator (See Figure 4-
2) the ram will be free to move. The weight of the ram
can result in downward motion. Use caution to ensure
that the area under the ram is clear of fingers and hand
tools. The machine guard should be in place.
Operational Check 2
1.
Verify that the clutch control collar is unlocked. See Figure 4-2. The crankshaft, input hub/flywheel, and black
spring housing should rotate freely with the 10mm wrench moving the ram down and up.
2.
After 360 degrees of clockwise rotation, the actuator will engage the clutch control collar and rotation will stop.
This is normal operation.
