B. MAINTENANCE SAFETY
1. Never put your hands in the operating area of the machine unless power and air are
completely removed from the machine. This includes:
Over duct fittings clamps
Under or in front of the press head
In front of the feed plate in the magazine or in front of the magazine
In the crimper slots
2. While placing duct fittings in the machine, keep hands well above the surface of the base
plate.
3. IF a corner piece gets caught under the press head, DO NOT try to remove with it using
your fingers. Use a long probe and keep away from the path of the duct fitting clamp.
4. Do not try to initiate machine operation by depressing the actuating fingers other than with
the duct fittings flange. Failure to comply may damage the press blocks.
5. NEVER have power ON or air pressure applied when the machine is unattended.
6. REMOVE ALL POWER AND AIR FROM THE MACHINE BEFORE WORKING ON A
PROBLEM OR PERFORMING ANY TYPE OF EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE.
C. SERVICING
(1) Lubrication, General Requirements
To ensure that the system is kept in a correct operating condition, it must be inspected
and maintained on a regular basis. Proper cleaning, the periodic lubrication of bearings,
bushings and other moving friction and wear generating points will prevent damage to or
failure of the unit, and provide optimum performance.
The maintenance technician must become familiar with all the lubrication points located
on the machine. Those points where metal-to-metal contact of movable surfaces is
located must be adequately lubricated.
During lubrication procedures, a preventative maintenance inspection should also be
conducted. Check the machine visually for loose nuts, bolts, parts out of adjustment, etc.
Correct all deficiencies while they are small, and before they become operational
problems.
Certain parts of the machine are left unpainted to aid in the movement of slide
assemblies, etc. Keep these areas clean and coated with light grease.
(a) Lubrication Schedule
Do not over-lubricate.
When using a low pressure grease gun, lubricate only to the point of grease
starting to come out of the edges of the seals, etc., of the item being lubricated.
Ensure that proximity sensor heads are kept clean and free of lubricant. Dirty
sensor heads will affect system operation.
D. PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
A periodic inspection schedule should be established and maintained. The periodic inspection
criteria should meet the minimum requirements necessary to ensure safe reliable service
