Routine Maintenance
All AEC GP1200 Series machines are equipped with rotor
bearings that are pre-lubricated from the factory.
Mounting of the bearings on the AEC GP1200 Series
machines results in trouble free, low maintenance, and long
lived bearing design.
Prior to startup of this machine, it is recommended that the
drive belt tension be checked for proper "RUN IN"
deflection force as listed in column A of the table on the
next page.
After the equipment has run between 24 and 48 hours, drive
belt tension must be checked for proper "OPERATIONAL"
deflection as listed in column B of the table on the next
page.
A V-belt drive will successfully transmit its rated capacity
if the belts are properly tensioned. The method of
tensioning is explained here in detail for your information.
