The following schedule should be followed to insure a long life of trouble free operation for your
DynaWash
®
washer-extractor. A sound and consistent maintenance schedule will assure many
years of useful service.
Troubleshooting.
If the machine fails to operate, check the following before trying to locate the cause of trouble:
• Power Source:
Check all switches, circuit breaker and voltage.
• Control Circuit:
Check all fuses, and the reset button, PLC Run/Stop Switch.
• Air Supply:
Check the air pressure. It should be at 80 PSI.
If after checking the above, the machine still fails to operate, refer to the Troubleshooting Guide,
found later in this section, for causes and corrective measures to resume operation.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Initial Post-Installation Maintenance Requirements:
For the first week or two following the initial installation, your DynaWash
®
washer/extractor
requires attention and frequent check-ups. A number of adjustments should be made and the
bolts and nuts tightened if found loose. This is due to the setting of the machine in place as well
as expansion from heat and motion. Keep checking the following:
• The floor bolts must be kept tight and checked periodically.
• The nuts on the front plate may come loose from the softening of the gasket and
should be gone over at least once even though no leaks develop.
• Check the taperlock bushing screws on all pulleys, especially the main drive. If any
looseness is observed, re-check once more - - if found tight, no need to inspect again.
See that pulleys have not moved from the original position.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
• Check both the front and rear main bearings for alignment and fit.
• Check the tension of the belts on main pulleys. These steel cable belts have very
little stretch and usually one adjustment is all that will be necessary.
Recommended belt deflection is ¼”.
NOTE
Start with the screw nearest the driver pulley, when
desired tension is obtained, lock in place. With the remain-
ing screws, adjust until contact with block. This will keep
the motor plate level and prevent any distortion.
• After two weeks or 100 operating hours, grease bearings, and put a few drops of oil
on the door hinges, door lock and index mechanism rods.
