5. Rotate the drivebase shaft.
Apply power
to the motor/brake with the correct
voltage and correct brake wiring configuration with the vent plug installed
in the reducer. This will rotate the drive shaft and cycle the brake once.
Manually cycle the brake
several times using the lever on the side of the
motor. After rotating with temporary power, remove the vent plug and install
the original plug to prevent contamination of the reducer oil. Before initial
use, drain and replace the reducer oil.
6. Apply lithium-type grease to the
pillow block and bearings
. Wrap or trap the
pillow blocks to avoid exposure to contaminants if needed.
7. Plug the
electrical component
inlets to
prevent moisture and other contaminants
from entering them. Store in a dry,
temperature controlled location to prevent
corrosion. Place silica gel desiccant inside
the control enclosure. Inspect the inside of
the control enclosure for any moisture build
up. See Figure 18-4.
8. Make sure the
parts crate
remains sealed and
dry.
For units stored longer than six months, it
is recommended that you contact the PFlow
Industries, Inc. Product Support Department
for additional information that may be available
prior to starting up your unit.
The VRC installation manual, electrical, and owner’s manuals are located in the
parts container (crate). Do not open the parts container (crate). If the manuals
are required, contact the PFlow Industries, Inc. Product Support Department
for an electronic copy (.pdf).

NOTICE
High Voltage! Employees servicing or maintaining VRCs may be exposed
to death or serious personal injury if hazardous energy is not properly
controlled. Follow your facilities procedures or OSHA lockout/tagout
(LOTO) procedures anytime maintenance or service is being performed
on any electrical box or component. Only qualified and trained service
technicians are to apply power to the motor.
The incoming voltage source must match the voltage identified on the rating tag.
The rating tag provides essential technical information required for any installation,
maintenance, or repairs. Do not remove, damage, or modify the rating tag.
