B. ADJUSTMENTS
7 DAYS AFTER INSTALLATION and EVERY 6 MONTHS THEREAFTER
Inspect bolts, nuts, screws (bearing set screws), nonpermanent gas connections (i.e., unions, shut-off valves,
orifices), and grounding connections. Fan (impellor) V-belts, along with the motor and drive chains should be
examined and replaced if necessary. Tighten loose V-belts when necessary. Complete operational check of
controls and valves. Complete operational check of ALL safety devices (i.e., door switches, lint drawer switch,
sail switch, burner, and hi-limit thermostats).
30 DAYS AFTER INSTALLATION
SHUT OFF ALL POWER TO THE DRYER. Verify that the electrical connections to the motor contactors
and overloads are tight. This is done to accommodate the compression of the wires over time.
C. LUBRICATION
MONTHLY
The two (2) bearings that support the impellor/fan shaft must be lubricated. Use Shell Alvania #2 grease or its
equivalent. Generically, this grease would be described as an NLGI Grade 2 multipurpose industrial grease with
a lithium thickener and mineral base oil.
EVERY 3 MONTHS
The four (4) bearings that support the drive and idler shafts must be lubricated. Use Shell Alvania #2 grease or
its equivalent. Generically, this grease would be described as an NLGI Grade 2 multipurpose industrial grease
with a lithium thickener and mineral base oil.
