3. MAINTENANCE
3.1 GENERAL
The meter-register is fully lubricated and properly adjusted at manufacture. However, periodic
cleaning and lubrication are required. Judgement of the intervals at which the meterregister requires
such service must necessarily be left to the individual user, due to varying conditions of service.
Under normal conditions this will be at least once a year, or after each 2.5 million units of measure
delivered, which ever comes first.
3.2 METER REGISTER REMOVAL
Remove the meter-register from the meter by removing the bolts holding the two together. Bolts are
located at the bottom of the Meterregister.
3.3 DISASSEMBLY PRIOR TO CLEANING
Remove the meter-register from its housing as follows:
1. Remove the bolts securing the cover (if present) to the top of the housing. These bolts are hex
head and are located at the four corners of the bottom of the housing. Remove the cover and
lever.
2. Remove the three button-head bolts securing the meterregister to the housing. Remove the meter-
register.
3. Remove the screws securing the gear plate to the bottom of the housing. Remove the gear plate.
3.4 CLEANING
CAUTION: DO NOT USE A WIRE BRUSH
1. Wipe bezel crystal with a clean lint-free rag.
2. Flush wheels with clean Savasol or equivalent solvent. Blow out surplus solvent with compressed
air.
3. If the wheel faces are dirty, gently clean with a clean lintfree rag, dipped in solvent.
4. Clean the gears on the gear plate by flushing or with a brush dipped in solvent. Blow dry with
compressed air.
5. Clean housing by dipping, flushing or brushing with solvent. Blow dry with compressed air.
