Gast Manufacturing Air Motor 1UP-NRV-10

Operate the motor for approximately 2 hours at the maximum desired load

Measure the surface temperature of the motor on the casting opposite the pipe ports

Is the surface temperature within the normal range (not exceeding 275 degrees F/135 degrees C)?

Do not continue to operate the motor if the measured surface temperature exceeds the temperature listed on the motor

Consult with your Gast Distributor/Representative if the measured temperature exceeds the listed value

Select the oil type used for lubricating

SPUR AND WORM REDUCERS - Lubrication

Check the oil level in spur gear reducers stored or not operated for a period of time

Ensure gear motors have proper lubrication

Verify oil level is sufficient to prevent performance loss, damage, or failure

Use a 300 ssu at 100°F/38°C turbine quality lubricant

For horizontal operation, remove both plugs and add oil to top hole until other hole overflows

For vertical operation, fill to overflow point of upper most hole

MAINTENANCE - Cleaning the sound absorber

Ensure safety precautions are followed

For lubricated operation, did you add 3-4 drops of oil?

Listen for changes in the sound of the motor. Does the motor sound smooth?

If the motor does not sound smooth, is installing a service kit required?

MAINTENANCE - Automatic Lubrication

Check intake and exhaust filters after first 500 hours of operation

Determine how frequently filters should be checked during future operation
