damage and/or personal injury.
Service
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE CHECK LIST.
The normal operation of the FLOOR COVERING
SCRAPER produces extreme dirt and dust, along with
levels of random vibration. Before operating the
FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER, the following service
list should be accomplished. This list is for reference
only and is not intended to be all inclusive. Other topic
areas can be added at the discretion of the owner(s)
and/or operator(s):
DANGER
DISCONNECT THE FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER
FROM THE EXTENSION CORD AND/OR POWER
SOURCE RECEPTACLE BEFORE PERFORMING
ANY SERVICE WORK OR REPAIR. TURN THE
ON/OFF SWITCH TO THE OFF POSITION.
FAILURE TO PROPERLY DISCONNECT THE
FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER FROM THE POWER
SOURCE DURING THESE ACTIVITIES CAN
RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR
PERSONAL INJURY.
1) Check all fasteners for proper torque values. If a
fastener requires retorquing, consult a torque chart for
the proper value. Properly discard and replace any
worn fastener with a factory approved, replacement
part.
2) Check the rubber elastomeric mounts for damage
and/or wear. Replace as necessary.
3) Check the external support bearing mounted to the
motor shaft for wear and proper alignment. Many
loose covering materials that accumulate in and
around the support bearing area can be extremely
abrasive. These materials can breach the bearing
seals and significantly reduce load capacity and
service life.
4) Determine the interior sections of the frame are free
of material build-up. Such build-ups can restrict the
operating process and present a potential safety
hazard. Clean and remove any material build-up from
the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER after each use.
5) Keep loose materials from accumulating around the
motor cooling fan. Remove the fan shroud and clean
as necessary.
6) Remove material accumulations from the exterior
surfaces of the electric motor. The electric motor is a
totally enclosed, fan cooled (TEFC) design. Keep the
fan fins clear of material accumulations to enhance air
flow over the motor exterior for cooling purposes.
CAUTION
Observe all applicable safety precautions for the
solvent.
7) Lubricate the caster wheel bearings with a dry film
lubricant. Use of other lubricant types can attract
foreign materials and reduce bearing service life.
8) Zerk® type grease fittings are provided in two
separate locations:
a) To lubricate the Back Saver™ Blade Control
System jackscrew.
