Control Buttons
There are two push buttons on the control unit (refer to figure 8), which can be used for a
menu-guided change of the settings.
When operating the C-Power, it is important to note that the lubricator differentiates between long and
quick pushes of the button. For the control system to recognize that a button has been pushed for a long
period of time, it must be held down for at least four seconds. If the button is held down for less than
four seconds, it is recognized as a quick push of the button.
■
With the MODE/SAVE button (refer to figure 11), you can reach the configuration menu, change the
mode and save the modified settings.

■
With the ON/OFF/SELECT button (refer to figure 12), you can switch the lubricator on and off and
gradually increase the discharge period. Every time that you push the button, the discharge period
is increased by a day, a week or a month.

OPERATION AND CONTROL
6.1 Preparations
■
Prior to installation of the lubricator, the lubrication point and the complete connection tube must be
sufficiently pre-lubricated with the same lubricant that the C-Power LV-unit contains. For this, Timken
offers a 400 g lubrication cartridge for grease presses with the corresponding lubricant.
■
The supplied Timken mounting device should be used when installing the Timken C-Power.
■
The lubricant tube must be installed and mounted correctly. The length of the lubricant tube should
not exceed five meters. The tube must be a Timken product.
■
Please verify that the connection threads of the Timken C-Power (G 3/8 or G 1/8) correspond to the
connection thread of the lubrication point. If they do not match, a corresponding reducer or other parts
can be ordered from the Timken accessory range.
For the initial setting into operation of a Timken C-Power, the pump system in the drive unit is
pre-filled with SF 04 from Timken’s standard range of lubricants. An exception is made with regard
to lubricants for the food industry. A complete discharge of this pump filling is guaranteed after
approximately 10 discharges (carry out additional discharges, if necessary).

Questions to ask Prior to Operation
■
Have all parts of the C-Power been checked for obvious damage?
■
Is the new C-Power LV-unit filled with the required lubricant?
■
Has a new battery set been inserted?
■
Was the drive unit set to the correct size of the C-Power LV-unit by inserting the jumper into the
corresponding slot?
■
Has the cover disc with plug been removed from the drive unit? (See chapter 1.2).
■
Was the drive unit set to the discharge period requested by the operator while taking into account
the required discharge volume?
■
Have all of the parts been assembled and mounted correctly and tightly?
