EDDYTHERM 4x swivel crossbar
The swivel crossbar greatly reduces the effort required to mount large, heavy bearings. The swivel crossbar is first
raised using the foot pedal and then turned easily to one side.
In this way, heavy bearings can be mounted on the swivel crossbar using suitable lifting gear.
When it is swiveled back, the crossbar locks back into place. Do not lower the bearing until the swivel crossbar is
closed (danger of tipping).
Never start the heating process while the swivel crossbar is open (danger of injury).
Mounting the bearings
Small to medium-size workpieces can be heated either when hanging from or resting on the EDDYTHERM. When
heating large bearings, it is recommended that the bearing be mounted in a horizontal position, for reasons of
better efficiency.
Bearing size
The powerful EDDYTHERM 4x can heat workpieces or roller bearings weighing in excess of 200 kg in a short period
of time (example: bearing 23088, 180 kg/396 lb, heated from 20°C/68°F to 100°C/212°C in approx. 8 minutes).
The standard swivel crossbar accepts workpieces with inside diameters from 108 mm on up. Additional swivel and
mounting crossbars are available optionally for smaller workpieces; see page 29.
Never start the heating process while the swivel crossbar is open (danger of injury).
