Rpm Adjustment - Sponge-Jet 70P Recycler User Manual

5.3 RPM ADJUSTMENT:

Another dimension of adjustment incorporated in this unit is variable speed
RPM adjustment. This unit can be adjusted from 950 RPM to 1450 RPM. This
unit is set at 1250 RPM from the factory.
The lower RPM range produces greater amplitude or stroke length but lower
frequency and a moderate rate of material flow. Higher RPM reduces am-
plitude but increases frequency and the material's rate of travel across the
screen.
ADJUSTMENT STEPS:
1. Before starting any RPM Adjustment steps Lockout/Tagout the machine.
2. Loosen RPM control lock (Motor Lock) at top of motor mount next to vari-
able speed pulley (figure 12).
3. To adjust the RPM the unit must be running - so use extreme caution.
4. With the crank supplied with the unit, attach it to the adjustment screw.
(figure 12).
5. To increase RPM, rotate crank counterclockwise (inward). To decrease RPM,
rotate crank clockwise (outward). One turn of crank is approximately equal to
a change of 35 RPM.
Note: RPM stops on motor mount that are factory preset. These motor stops
must not be changed.
6. When desired RPM is reached, Lockout/Tagout the unit.
7. Tighten RPM control lock (Motor Lock).
CAUTION: RPM control lock must be tight at all times when motor is running
during full production. If unit is operating with a loose RPM control lock this
may affect warranty.
