1. Check and maintain oil
level, and add oil as
necessary.
2. Check for unusual
noise or vibration (
See
Troubleshooting on
page 37
).
1. Clean all air filters. A clogged
air filter can seriously affect the
efficiency of the blower and cause
overheating and oil usage.
2. Check the relief valve to make sure
it is operating properly.
1. Inspect the entire system for leaks.
2. Inspect the condition of the oil and
change if necessary.
3. Check drive belt tension and
tighten if necessary.
Oil levels should be checked every 24 hours of
operation.
Proper oil drain schedules require oil be changed
before the contaminant load becomes so great
that the lubricating function of the oil is impaired
or heavy disposition of suspended contaminants
occurs. To check the condition of the oil, drain a
sample into a clean container and check for the
presence of water or solids. Slight discoloration of
the oil should not necessitate an oil change.
SPARE PARTS
Should adjustments or replacement be needed,
repairs can often be performed locally as described
in this manual after obtaining the required parts.
Personnel should have a good background of
mechanical experience and be thoroughly familiar
with the procedures outlined in this manual.
For major repairs not covered in this manual,
contact the nearest Tuthill Springfield service
representative.
When ordering parts, supply the blower nameplate
information, as well as the item number and parts
description as per the parts lists and assembly
drawings. Repair kits are available for all models.
These kits contain all the seals, bearings, O-rings,
locks, and special retaining screws necessary for
an overhaul. For convenience when ordering parts,
complete the
Operating Data Form
included on
the inside back cover of this manual.
In developing a stock of spare parts, consider the
following factors:
• The degree of importance in maintaining the
blower in a “ready” condition
• The time lag in parts procurement
• Cost
• Shelf life (seals and O-rings)
FACTORY SERVICE AND REPAIR
With proper care, Tuthill Springfield blowers
will give years of reliable service. The parts are
machined to close tolerances and require special
tools by mechanics who are skilled at this work.
Should major repairs become necessary, contact
the factory for the location of the nearest service
facility.
Current regulations require Material Safety
Data Sheet to be completed and forwarded to
Tuthill Corporation on any unit being returned
for any reason which has been handling or
involved with hazardous gases or materials.
This is for the protection of the employees of
Tuthill Corporation who are required to perform
service on this equipment. Failure to do so will
result in service delays.
