EC#1 ANNUAL PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE
CHECK DRIVE BELTS FOR SIGNS OF WEAR SUCH AS CUTS, FRAYS, OR MISSING TEETH. REPLACE IF REQUIRED.
CHECK BELT TENSION. BELTS SHOULD BE TIGHT ENOUGH TO ELIMINATE EXCESSIVE PLAY BETWEEN THE PULLEYS. OVERLY TIGHT BELTS WILL WEAR FASTER AND PLACE EXCESSIVE LOADS ON BEARINGS.
CHECK ALL SHAFTS AND PULLEYS. THE PULLEYS SHOULD BE SEATED TIGHTLY ON THE SHAFTS. CHECK PULLEYS SET SCREWS AND TIGHTEN AS NEEDED TO SPECIFIED TORQUE.
MOVE PLOTTER MANUALLY BY PUSHING ON THE Y-CARRIAGE. (X-AXIS DRIVES REQUIRE TWO PEOPLE.) CARRIAGE AND DRIVES SHOULD MOVE WITH CONTINUOUS SMOOTH FORCE. LISTEN AND FEEL FOR "HARD" SPOTS THAT WILL INDICATE A FAILED LINEAR BEARING.
CHECK THE Y-AXIS BACKLASH (GEAR PLAY). THE Y-AXIS GEAR SHOULD BE SNUG AGAINST THE Y-AXIS RACK. TO ADJUSTED BACKLASH, LOOSEN THE (8) RAIL Y-CAR BACKLASH PLATE SCREWS. PUSH THE SMALL Y-CAR GEAR TOWARD THE Y-CAR RACK. BE CAREFUL NOT TO BIND THE Y-CAR GEAR WITH THE Y-CAR RACK. WHEN PROPER ADJUSTMENT IS REACHED TIGHTEN THE BACKLASH PLATE SCREWS. AFTER ADJUSTING THE BACKLASH THE Y-BELT TENSION MAY NEED TO BE ADJUSTED.
CHECK THE X-AXIS BACKLASH (GEAR PLAY). THE X-AXIS DRIVE GEAR SHOULD BE SNUG AGAINST THE X-AXIS RACK. TO ADJUST BACKLASH, LOOSEN THE (8) RAIL X-CAR CONNECTOR SCREWS ENOUGH TO ALLOW X-CARRIAGE TO MOVE. TURN THE (2) BACKLASH ADJUSTER SCREWS UNTIL THERE IS NO BACKLASH (PLAY) BETWEEN CARRIAGE AND TABLE. BE CAREFUL NOT TO BIND THE X-AXIS CARRIAGE WITH THE X-AXIS RAIL. WHEN PROPER ADJUSTMENT IS REACHED, TIGHTEN THE (8) RAIL CAR CONNECTOR SCREWS TO SPECIFIED TORQUE. NOTE THAT IT IS IMPORTANT TO KEEP THE CARRIAGE LE
CHECK ALL ELECTRICAL PLUG CONNECTIONS TO ENSURE THEY ARE SECURELY FASTENED.
CHECK FOR UNUSUAL NOISES COMING FROM BLOWER ASSEMBLY. IF CLICKING OR GRINDING NOISES HEARD THEN CALL EASTMAN SERVICE TECHNICIAN.
INSPECT CUTTING BELT FOR DEEP CUTS OR BAD WEAR AREAS. REPAIR BELT WHERE EVER NECESSARY USING BELT WELD STICK (67-26037) AND CONCENTRATED WELD HEAT GUN (67-26032 ). TO ORDER A COMPLETE BELT REPAIR KIT, ORDER EASTMAN #96-26006.
