ACKER AINTENANCE
The W packing system has a heavy duty guiding system
ITTKE
using special hardened steel wear plates. Because of the
frequent use of the packer, we recommend to perform daily
inspections (operator) and weekly inspections (maintenance
personnel)
Greasing all moving parts on a daily basis is very important. The
proper adjustment of the proximity switches is also very
important (refer to "Packer Fully Retracted Proximity Switch" on
page 42 and to "Packer Fully Extended Proximity Switch" on
page 43).

ACKER EAR
If the packer has a vertical movement greater than 3/16 inch or
a side movement greater than 1/8 inch, verify wear plates and
body guides.
