2. Ramps, turntable, and frame: check welds and fasteners. Examine each structure for damage
such as bends, warps and cracks.
3. Power unit, transmission, and control equipment (particularly the foot pedal): inspect the power unit
including the power cord. Examine the foot pedal and its guard and cord for damage. Cycle the
turntable (turn it on, let it run for about a minute, and then turn it off). Observe the machine as it
operates. Listen for unusual noise. Watch for abnormal movement (e.g. binding and jerking).
Confirm normal condition and operation.
4. Labels: all labels should be readable and located as shown in the
Replace any label that is damaged, missing, or not easily readable.
NOTE:
Label appearance and content is subject to change. Consequently, replacement
labels might differ from labels shown in the manual supplied with the unit.
B. At least 1 time per month, inspect the following:
1. Electrical wiring: closely inspect wiring for regions of significant wear, cuts, frays, and other
damage.
2. Fasteners (hardware): check fasteners for looseness and damage. Tighten all loose fasteners;
replace any that are damaged: Bolts, nuts, washers;
3. Turntable drive chain: inspect the chain for significant wear and looseness. Operate the turntable
and compare the current maximum rotation speed with the speed recorded when the machine was
first installed. If the top rotation speed is slower than the recorded figure, adjust the tightness of the
belt. If the turntable lurches or skips during operation or if you hear the chains knocking against the
frame, then chain tension needs to be increased. See
4. Motor speed controller: replace the controller if pushbuttons are not operational, if the speed
control dial does not function properly, or if the housing is damaged.
5. Turntable: examine the turntable for significant wear and impact damage. Sharp projections might
develop along the edge of the turntable. Sand or grind off all projections, burrs, etc.
6. Thrust/Load bearings: operate the turntable and listen for scraping sounds. If the turntable is much
nosier while it rotates than it was when it was first put into service, then the load bearings should
be replaced.
7. Turntable main bearing: the top of the turntable should be parallel to the supporting frame; it
should not wobble.
8. Anchoring points: check each of the anchor bolts and the concrete around them. The machine
should be solidly fixed to the floor. Tighten bolts, if necessary. Concrete around each bolt should
not be cracked, chipped, etc.
9. Labels: confirm that all labels are present, undamaged and readable. See
, p. 12.
10. Overall condition of machine: the structure should be clean, square and rigid, and free of rust
and corrosion. Remove dirt and debris. Do not use the machine if the base is excessively rusted
or corroded.
Troubleshooting:
Contact the
for assistance with issues identified below or any others.
Issue
Possible Cause
Corrective Action
1) Turntable does not rotate a) No power supply voltage
b) Speed control on lowest setting
c) No signal from pedal control
d) Motor controller fault or defective
motor controller
e) Chain is broken or slipping
a) Check outlet for 115V power.
b) Increase turntable speed using the speed dial on
the Delta motor speed controller. See
c) Make sure pedal cable securely connected to
power unit.
d) Check the display screen on the Delta motor
speed controller for a fault code. If a fault code is
e) If fan of drive motor spins but table does not
rotate, disconnect power and inspect drive
chains.
2) Turntable cannot rotate
without assistance, rotates
more slowly while loaded, or
does not achieve set speed
a) Chain worn or slipping
a) If motor fan spins but turntable does not rotate,
adjust chain tension. If problem persists after
adjusting tension, inspect chains.
