No. 60027 GEAR REDUCER

LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE

VIEW IS FROM OPPOSITE SIDE OF DRIVEN SHAFT

LUBRICANTS FOR WORM GEAR REDUCERS

The precision-made gears and bearings in Speed Reducers require high-grade lubricants of the proper viscosity to maintain trouble-free performance. For best results, use lubricants on the following chart for worm gear reducers.

MINERAL OILS SYNTHETIC OILS

Ambient Temperature 16 to 50ºF 96 to 131ºF Final State Worm Speed Up to 2000 FPM Up to 450 FPM ISO Viscosity Grade 460 680 AGMA Lubricant No. #7 Compounded 8 S

Mobil 600W Super Cylinder SHC 636 American Lubricants AGMA #7 Gear Oil N/A Castrol Tribol 1105-7C Tribol 800/680 Chevron Cylinder Oil W460 Tregra 680 Conoco Inca Oil 460 N/A Exxon (Esso) Spartan EP 460 Teresstic SHP 680 Fiske Brothers SPO-277 N/A Shell Valvata J 460 Omala RL 680 Texaco Vanguard 460 Pinnacle 680

Standard factory-installed lubricant is Mobile Oil Corp. 600 W Super Cylinder Oil (AGMA7).

Some gear lubricants contain E.P. additives that can be corrosive to gear bronze material. Avoid lubricants that are compounded with sulfur and/or chlorine.

Lubricant selections are provided by the lubricant manufacturer based on AGMA recommended viscosity grades. Vis

cosity grades are based on Lubrication Standard ANSI/AGMA 9005-D94.

Page 13

LUBRICATION (Cont.)

1. Factory Filling

The speed reducers are oil filled at the factory with Mobil 600W Super Cylinder Oil to the proper level for the standard mounting position. The oil level should be checked and adjusted (if necessary) prior to

operation, using the oil level plug provided and while the unit is oriented in its operating position.

2. Oil Changing

When changing oil for any reason, it should be remembered that oils of various types may not be compatible. Therefore, when changing to a different oil, it is recommended that the housing be completely drained and

thoroughly flushed with a light flushing oil prior to refilling with the appropriate lubricant. The oil level should be rechecked after a short period of operation and adjusted, if necessary.

A. Initial Oil Change

Oil in the mixer transmission should be changed after the first four (4) weeks of operation. This is to remove the initial oil and also any small metal shavings that may have been generated during the mating of the gears

B. Subsequent Oil Changes

After the initial oil change, subsequent changes should be performed every six (6) months. After draining the oil, refill the unit to the "level" plug on the side of the transmission with Mobil 600W Super Cylinder oil or equivalent.

C. Synthetic Oils

Synthetic lubricants can be advantageous over mineral oils in that they generally are more stable, have a longer life, and operate over a wider temperature range. These oils are appropriate for any application but are especially useful when units are subjected to low start-up temperatures or high operating temperatures. However, continuous operation above 225°F may cause damage to seals or other components. It is recommended that the initial oil be changed or filtered after the first 1500 hours of operation to remove metal particles that accumulate during break-in. Subsequent oil changes should be made after 5000 hours operation if the units are operating in a clean environment. This can be extended to 10,000 hours if using new reformulated Mobil SHC 636 lubricants

(orange in color) and the lubricant

remains free of contamination over this period.

3. PROCEDURE FOR REPLACING OIL IN MIXER TRANSMISSION a. Unplug mixer grinder from power source and perform lockout/tagout procedures.

b. Remove rear drive or access cover.

c. Remove vent plug on the top side of the gearbox and the oil level plug from the side of the gearbox.

d. With a container in place to catch old oil, remove the lower drain plug on the side of the gearbox.

e. When all oil has drained, clean the drain plug and re-install in the gearbox.

f. Refill the gearbox with Mobil 600W Super Cylinder oil or equivalent until oil appears at the bottom of the

oil level hole. Approximately 3.1 pints

of oil. g. Replace oil level and vent plugs. h. Reinstall rear drive cover or access cover.

4. Overfilling or Underfilling

If a speed reducer is overfilled with oil, the energy used in churning the excessive oil can result in overheating. If this occurs, shut down the drive, remove the oil level plug and allow oil to drain until oil ceases to drain from the level hole, reinstall the oil level plug and restart the drive. if the speed reducer is underfilled, the resultant friction can cause overheating and possible damage. If this occurs, fill the speed reducer to the oil level plug hole and check the gearing for excessive wear.

5. Oil Seals

Although the speed reducer uses high quality oil seals and precision ground shafts to provide a superior seal contact surface, it is possible that circumstances beyond the speed reducer's control can cause oil seal leakage (damage during shipment or installation, etc.). When replacing a shaft oil seal, using the following suggestions will help to insure leak-free operation and long seal life.

A. When installing a new seal, cover the keyway and any other surface discontinuity with smooth tape to

protect the seal lip from being damaged.

B. A sealant should be used between the O.D. of the seal and the I.D. of the bore into which the seal is

installed. The seal bore should also be free of any burrs, nicks, or scratches.

C. Be sure that the seal is not cocked in the seal bore. The outer face of the seal should be flush with the

surface into which it is mounted.

Page 14

D. SPUR GEARS LUBRICATION

Gears should be checked after the first two weeks of operation. Then every 6 weeks, depending on hour's used or severe duty every 2 weeks. Recommended types of spur gear lubricant are those with Lithium soap base. Also bonded lubricants such as Shell Cassida EPS Grease 2 or equivalent for Spur Gears. The lubricant should be of a viscosity whereby it will stick and bond to the working surfaces to reduce heat and wear to the Spur Gear Teeth.

a. Unplug mixer grinder from power source and perform lockout/tagout procedures. b. Remove rear drive cover or access cover. c. Spray or brush lubricant on teeth of the Spur Gears complete. d. Reinstall rear drive cover.

E. MIXER DRIVE GEAR ADJUSTMENT

Unplug mixer/grinder from power source and perform lockout/tagout procedures.

Remove rear drive cover.

Loosen the four bolts and adjustment bolt holding the 5 hp motor and transmission to its mounting plate.

Slide Mixer Transmission to the right.

When the Spur Gears are interlocked leave a little clearance, about

"–

Do Not Bottom Out the Gear Teeth into the Other Driven Gear.

This will put excessive and damaging pressure on the transmission bearings and mixer drive shaft bearings. Check with a straight edge from the large spur gear across the face to the face of drive spur gear in two different locations. The spur gears must be aligned. Tighten the adjustment bolt up to the transmission and tighten jam nut. Tighten the four bolts to the transmission and mounting plate. Check the spur gear alignment again. See Lubrication.

Reinstall rear drive cover.

— NOTES —

Page 15

F. AUGER DRIVE BELT TENSION

1. Unplug mixer/grinder from power source and perform lockout/tagout procedures.

2. Remove rear drive cover and motor cover for adjusting belt tension.

3. The Eagle Pd belt should be checked after the first 16 hours of use. Recheck the belt tension and the sprocket alignment. Check again every 6 weeks.

4. The Eagle Pd belt total deflection is

". The sprocket must be aligned. Check with a straight edge across

the face of the sprockets.
