Oil inspection and Oil change

 

When the pump is tilted for inspecting or 

changing the oil, pay careful attention to the 

center of gravity and weight of the pump. When 

lowering the pump, fasten the chain or rope to 

the eyebolts providerd for this purpose. Failing 

to lower the pump completely may result in 

damage or injury if the pump is dropped.

WARNING

Refilling bearing grease

Models with output 110kW require that 

bearing grease be refilled periodically. With 

the pump standing upright, supply grease 

at the grease nipple on the bearing housing 

side of lower bearing (M25 screw), and at the 

grease nipple at the upper part of the motor  

for models with an upper bearing (PT1/4). 

The table shows the different bearing types, 

specified amount of grease, initial supply of 

grease, and refill frequency.

 

 Greasing generally is good for around 3,000 hours of use, but this can vary depending on the use conditions.

Note:

Replacing Oil
    Remove the oil plug and drain all the oil, then replace it with the specified amount.

 

 Worn oil and other waste products should be disposed of by a qualif ed agent, in accord with applicable local 

laws. The oil plug packing and O-ring should be replaced each time the oil is inspected or changed.

Note:

Inspecting Oil

  

Remove the oil plug and tilt the pump to drain a small amount of oil. If the oil 

is milky white or has water mixed in with it, the mechanical seal may be faulty. 

In this case the pump will need to be  disassembled and repaired.
