Turbodisk 2 - Maintenance
22
VIBRATION NOISE
If the Turbodisk 2 is vibrating or making an unusual
loud noise, it may mean that there is an unbalanced
situation or a bearing failure. The disk could have
dried paint or could be damaged. This situation
should be corrected immediately. Do not continue
to operate a noisy turbine.

>
If a disk has been mishandled or there appears
to be damage on the face, DO NOT USE. Serious
injury can result from rotating a defective disk. If
there is a concern about the condition of a disk,
please return it to Ransburg for evaluation.

TURBINE REPAIR & REBUILD
-REFER TO FIGURE 27
Turbine field repair or rebuild only after factory
warranty expires. Any attempt to disassemble turbine
during warranty period will void the warranty.
VALVES & REGULATORS
-REFER TO FIGURES 19, 20, 21, & 22
No maintenance is normally required on the valves
or regulator other than flushing with solvent daily.
Visual inspections should be made on the valves
and regulator on a weekly basis. Should the valve
or regulator not function properly, refer to the
individual manuals for troubleshooting and repair
procedures.
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Before any shutdown or maintenance, the fluid system
should be thoroughly flushed. All cleaning should
be done with a minimum of the appropriate clean
solvent and clean, soft, lint free rags or soft brushes
where indicated.
W A R N I N G
> Do not stop disk rotation by using a rag or
gloved hand.
> Make sure high voltage is off before
approaching applicator.
> Follow proper grounding procedures.
!
>
Because of the hazard of bearing penetration,
solvents should be used sparingly. They should
never be hosed directly onto the atomizer, motor
housing or fiber optic juncture.

Daily Maintenance
• Clean the atomizer disk, motor housing, fairing,
and as needed, the peripheral equipment with
nonpolar high flash point solvents.
W A R N I N G

Personnel working on applicators MUST
always be sure that the high voltage is off, the
fluid system is flushed and off, the rotator has
stopped, and that the grounding hook has been
properly secured to the motor housing.
