•
Fill sealing cap on the input shaft through the ventilation of the sealing cap (1) The ventilation (1) is to
be closed, only once the oil filling of the gear unit is completed, unless oil is escaping from this opening
before then.
•
For filling, remove the sealing cap that seals the oil drain cock of the gear unit (7). The gear unit must
be filled with oil through the bottom oil drain cock of the gear unit (7).
Note
The gear unit will be filled completely only when the oil level indicator on the tilting pad thrust bearing
chamber (12) is filled completely with oil.
•
The lower oil drain cock on the gear unit (7) must be provided and sealed with a screw plug.
•
If not already done beforehand, close ventilation of the sealing cap (1).
Note
Before the start-up of the gear unit, the measures according to section 7.1 and 7.2 have to be carried
out.
4.4.3.3 Renewal of the interior preservation of the gear unit using the oil- supply system
The prerequisite for this is that the gear unit is still below the mill and connected to the oil-supply system.
"Castrol Alpha SP 220 S" or "Tribol 1390" can be used as preservative agent. The oil level must never be
below the MIN mark on the oil level indicator of the main gear unit, the tilting pad thrust bearing chamber
and/or on the oil-supply system (if the model has a tank, also see the operating manual of the oil-supply
system). For this purpose, the oil-supply system has to be switched on and the gear unit must be turned
without load (at least 1 rotation on the output shaft). The oil must be drained, the gear unit and oil-supply
system be closed, masked and sealed airtight. Air filters have to be replaced for sealing caps and be
sealed. The gear unit has to be sealed airtight with a round cord hollow profile between the gear unit
housing and the output flange. The labyrinth seals on the input shaft and on the output flange must be
masked airtight within 1 hour.
Note
Clean the air filters thoroughly (see item 10.3) and keep it in a safe place (these will be required when
starting up again).
