MAINTENANCE

Grease

•  Use dielectric grease on all electrical connections 

at the beginning and end of each season, and as 
required during the season.

•  After every 10 hours of operation, grease the idler 

bearings on the idler shaft, 

fl

 anged bearings on 

the drive shaft, and the spinner shaft bearings.

•  After every 50 hours of operation, grease the input 

shaft bearing on the gear case and verify the oil 
level of the gear case is level with the 

fi

 ll hole.

•  Change gear case oil once a year. Drain oil 

by removing the side cover of the gear case. 
Re

fi

 ll with Mobil SHC 632 or Exxon SHP 320 or 

equivalent synthetic gear oil. Oil level should be 
even with the bottom of the 

fi

 ll hole.

fi

 cation

Use Mobil SHC 632 or Exxon SHP 320 or equivalent.

Drive Chain, Spinner Belt and Conveyor 
Chain Tension

•  At the beginning of each season, and once a month 

during the season, verify the drive sprocket set screws 
and the clutch sprocket mounting bolts are tight.

•  Visually inspect the drive chain for wear. If chain is 

worn, replace the chain.

•  Visually inspect spinner belt for cracks and wear. If 

belt is cracked or worn, replace the belt.

•  Maintain correct belt and chain tension. Correct 

tension allows for 1/4"–5/16" of de

fl

 ection midway 

between the pulleys/sprockets.

To 

increase

 engine chain tension: 

Loosen the four 

bolts that secure the engine mount to the engine 
base and pull the engine away from the clutch. 
After correct tension is achieved, retighten the 
engine mount bolts.

To 

increase

 spinner belt tension:

 Loosen spinner 

bearing bolts, and pull shaft assembly away from 
the clutch. After correct tension is achieved, 
retighten the bearing bolts.

•  Periodically check the conveyor chain tension. To 

check the tension, measure in 20"–24" from the 
rear edge of the sills. Push up on the chain with 
your hand. The conveyor chain should lift up 1"–3" 
off the conveyor chain guide or cross angles.

 CAUTION

Over-greasing may cause seal damage. The 
gear case must be 

fi

 lled to the oil-level plug 

with Mobil SHC 632 or Exxon SHP 320 or 
equivalent synthetic gear-type lubricant. Keep 
the breather plug clean.

 CAUTION

Disconnect electric and/or hydraulic power and 
tag out if required before servicing or performing 
maintenance.

 CAUTION

Over-tightening the roller chains may damage 
the bearings on the gear case and the engine. 
Over-tightening will also shorten the life of the 
roller chain and of the sprockets.
