Gear reducer

Uncouple the gear reducer from the weighfeeder drive shaft and the motor and grease all shaft

surfaces liberally with an appropriate lubricant to help with reassembly.

In addition, fill the gear reducer with an appropriate gear oil to prevent oxidation. When the

equipment is re-installed, completely drain this gear oil and then refill the reducer to the

appropriate level.

8.4.3

To prevent oxidation, place a desiccant or moisture removal material in all electrical junction

boxes and component cabinets. This includes the load cell junction box, the integrator cabinet,

and the motor speed controller enclosure (if present).

8.4.4

Grease all greasable points.

8.4.5

Reduce belt tension to a minimum to prevent belt damage and re-adjust belt tension at re-

installation.

Note

Do NOT store the weighfeeder in direct sunlight, as this will cause premature breakdown of the

belt.
