18 - ROUTINE MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS
18 -1 MACHINE MAINTENANCE:
Your press requires a minimum amount of maintenance; maintenance is chiefly limited to draining
the hydraulic system.
A) HYDRAULIC SYSTEM - DRAINAGE
The hydraulic system in your press has distributor valves.
- The reliability of these valves depends above all on how clean the oil is.
We would like to remind you of a few basic rules:
- All hydraulic systems are contaminated, even before the system is assembled.
- When operating the system, wear by abrasion generates further contamination.
- The same applies when the system is topped up with new hydraulic fluid assumed to be clean.
For this reason, it is advisable not to stop up at short intervals, and not to drain the system too
often.
- Well-filtered oil deteriorates quite slowly_
- Non-filtered oil increases the amount of pollution and clogs the filters more quickly.
TAKE EXTRA CARE WHEN FILLING. ONLY USE OIL THAT HAS BEEN FILTERED.
THIS IS WHAT DETERMINES THE LIFE OF YOUR PRESS BRAKE
DRAINAGE
First drainage:
: after 500 hours
Next drainages: : every 1,500 hours
- Make sure that the lower beam is in the bottom position.
- Remove the high-pressure filter element.
- Remove the filling filter element.
- Remove the drain plug and insert a hose in its place.
- Drain tank completely.
FILLING
- Reassemble high-pressure filter (if necessary, change the element).
- Insert drain plug.
- Fill tank with Mobil DTE 25 oil (or any other oil with the exact same characteristics). Refer to the
table of machine characteristics to find out how much oil is needed.
- When filling, filter the oil through a filter element of 5 absolute microns.
- Check level, which should be between the minimum and maximum marks on the dipstick.
- Insert filler plug
WARNING
THE PUMP MUST NEVER BE RUN WITHOUT ANY OIL IN IT.
