THE TOP MOTOR ON THE SHAKER BASKET IS THE FIXED WEIGHT MOTOR; THE
BOTTOM MOTOR IS THE SWING WEIGHT MOTOR.
DURING THE BUMP START PROCEDURE IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT OPERATORS
KEEP ALL LIMBS AWAY FROM THE MOTORS. MOTOR WEIGHTS WILL BE ROTATING
AT HIGH SPEED AND CAN CAUSE SEVERE INJURIES.
ALL COMPONENTS INSIDE THE CONTROL BOX ARE LIVE AND PRESENT A SHOCK
HAZARD. USE OF PPE IS MANDATORY AT THIS TIME TO PREVENT INJURY.
a. To bump start motors, push the START button on the control panel; push the STOP button immediately
after.
5. Check direction of top counter-weights to confirm their rotation matches the motor rotation diagram (Refer to
Figure 22).
6. If the rotation matches Figure 22, reinstall all motor covers.
7. Start unit following procedures from paragraph 12 and run for approximately one hour. This will allow enough
time for motor bearings to reach normal operating temperature.
8. Using an amp meter, verify the current drawn by the vibrators from the control panel matches the specifications
on the vibrator nameplate (a clamp-on current meter is recommended).
9. Clamp around each motor cable lead to get current readings (Refer to Figure 23).
10. Reinstall control panel bolts to close and secure the control panel cover.
