Preventive Maintenance
5.1 General Description
To minimize downtime, preventive maintenance should be made a priority. Proper preventive
maintenance practices will also extend the life of the equipment. Developing a preventive maintenance
schedule will ensure that critical maintenance procedures are not missed.
5.2 Daily Maintenance Procedures
At the start of each working day, the following maintenance tasks should be performed before starting
the machine:
1. Thoroughly clean the machine.
2. Check the calibration, using a known weight.
5.2.1 Cleaning
Keeping the TE100 clean is an important part of the daily maintenance tasks. Remove any dust and/or
dirt that has accumulated on a daily basis. Keeping the unit clean will keep debris from entering the
control mechanisms, which could cause the performance of the TE100 to suffer. Also, by taking the
time to clean the TE100 on a daily basis, the operator will be able to give the TE100 a thorough
inspection. Take the time to inspect all components for possible damage.
5.2.2 Check Calibration
On a daily basis, check the calibration of the machine using a known weight. If calibration is required,
refer to 3.6 Calibration.
5.3 Monthly Maintenance
On a monthly basis (every 700 operating hours), the operator should do the following items:
1. Inspect and service the filter and lubricator in the FRL.
2. Inspect all hoses, air cylinders, linkages, and bearings. Replace any worn or damaged parts.
3. Inspect the rubber shutoff gate seal. Replace the seal if it is worn or leaking.
4. Clean any dust or product that may have accumulated around the load cell.
5. Inspect the rubber bag clamp pads. Replace them if they are worn.
6. Check the calibration. Refer to 3.6 Calibration.
7. Check the retainer flange bolts. Tighten them if they are loose.
