B. Electric and Plug in Instructions
1. General Instructions
a. Always operate your machines with ground faults wired at the electrical source.
b. Low voltage is a common occurrence on many terrazzo jobs, and hence it is necessary
that the terrazzo contractor know his incoming voltage and amperage at the machine.
We also recommend a good, reasonably priced voltammeter instrument for each con
tractor and that he as well as his foreman know how to operate same.
c. As a result of the low voltage and the use of a 230 Volt motor, Terrco
booster box with pre-wired plugs already connected to your machine.
d. If the machine is to operate on an area more then 100 feet from the electrical source it
will be necessary to use the next lower number (larger) size cable from the source to the
100 foot wire cable that was furnished with the machine.
e. If additional cable is necessary, be sure all connections are of the proper size and that
they are tight
f. As a final step before starting the machine, we strongly recommend that a voltage
reading is taken; this requires a very few minutes time and could save a great deal of
trouble.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOUR TERRCO
A. The Lubrication of the Machine
1. The lubrication of the gear case.
a. The main gear case contains 15 lbs. of Mobilith AW-1 grease.
b. Gear case grease level must be checked once a week. The level of grease in the gear
case should be up to half the thickness of the helical gears (Ref. No. 32 on the parts
diagram).
2. The lubrication of the wheel bearings.
a. Use grease gun and grease once a month, (fitting Ref. No. 11 on the parts diagram) on
each wheel with Mobilith AW-1 or equivalent.
b. Be sure to pump enough grease into the wheel bearing. Keep pumping until grease
starts coming through
3. Location of other grease fittings.
a. Four fittings on bearing caps on top of gear case (Ref. No. 11). Lubricate these fittings
with Mobilith AW-1 or equivalent monthly.
