3. The mechanical roll release shaft located at the exit side of the feed.
Three screws have to be removed and then the keeper plate can be
removed. The inner shaft should be thoroughly greased to prevent sticking.
Do not apply excessive grease as it may fall onto the drive rollers and cause
misfeeding due to material slippage. All bearings are sealed and need no
additional lubrication.
LUBRICATION
The gear box oil must be kept up to sight gauge level and changed after every
2000 hours of use. Recommended oil is Mobil #SHC630 or equivalent. The
oil reservoir capacity is 3.5 oz. The oil can be drained by removal of the drain
plug located near the base of the gear housing cover, just below the sight
gauge. The oil reservoir is filled through the pipe thread port occupied by the
air breather plug near the upper edge of the gear housing cover.
NOTE: THE ORIGINAL BREAK-IN OIL IN THE GEAR BOX SHOULD BE
CHANGED AFTER 100 HOURS OF CYCLE TIME AND EXAMINED FOR
CHIPS OR FOREIGN MATTER. REPLACE THE BEAR BOX OIL PER
INSTRUCTIONS.
The anti-backup rollers have been lubricated at the factory and should need
no further attention. If they are found to slip in the reverse direction, consult
the factory for further assistance.
