Maintenance

Maintenance

Flush the Air Motor

To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury, including cuts, amputation of fingers, and splashing in the eyes

or on the skin, always follow the Pressure Relief

Procedure, shut off the agitator, and disconnect the

air line before checking or repairing the agitator.

Lubricate the Heavy-Duty

Agitator

NOTICE

To prevent air motor failure or gear reducer failure and possible damage to the agitator assembly, always keep the air motor and gear reducer properly lubricated.

Lubricate the Air Motor

Install an air line lubricator for automatic air motor lubrication. Set the lubricator feed rate at 1 drop of oil per minute for high speed or continuous duty usage. Do not overfeed oil or exhaust air may become contaminated. To order a 3/8 in. npt air line lubricator, order part number 214847.

If an air line lubricator is not installed, the air motor must be manually lubricated every 8 hours. Lubricate the agitator air motor by placing 10–20 drops of SAE #10 light oil in the motor’s air inlet. Oil must have an auto-ignition rating of 275°F (135°C) or greater. Run the agitator for about 30 seconds.

Lubricate the Gear Reducer

Refer to F IG . 5, page 13. Remove the oil plug (T) and the

oil level plug (L), drain the oil, and thoroughly flush the housing with light flushing oil. Refill with Graco oil (part number 217374) to the proper level.

Afterward, change the oil every six months or 2500 hours of operation (whichever occurs first) under normal operating conditions. More frequent oil changes are needed under severe operating conditions or in atmospheres containing excessive moisture or abrasives. Contact your Graco distributor.

Do not use kerosene or other flammable solvents to flush the air motor. Flushing with flammable solvents could cause fire or explosion and result in serious injury or property damage.

Hazardous fluids or toxic fumes can cause serious injury or death if splashed in the eyes or on the skin, swallowed, or inhaled. When flushing the air motor:

• Flush the air motor in a ventilated area.

• Keep your face away from the exhaust port.

• Wear the appropriate protective clothing, gloves, eyewear, and respirator.

If the air motor is sluggish or inefficient, perform the following procedures.

The recommended solvent for air motors and lubricated pumps is Gast

®

Flushing Solvent (Gast part number

AH255 or AH255A) or Inhibisol

®

Safety Solvent.

1.

Disconnect the air line and muffler (22). See Parts on page 16.

2.

Add several teaspoons of solvent or spray the solvent directly into the motor.

3.

Rotate the shaft by hand in both directions for a few minutes.

4.

Reconnect the air line, and slowly increase the air pressure until there is no trace of solvent in the exhaust air.

5.

Re-lubricate the motor with a squirt of light-weight oil in the chamber.

308371S 11

Maintenance

Air Motor Repair

If the vanes need replacing, or if foreign material is present in the motor chamber, an experienced mechanic may remove the end plate opposite the drive shaft end.

Do not pry with a screwdriver. It will dent the surface of the plate and body, causing leaks. Use a puller tool, which will remove the end plate while maintaining the position of the shaft.

New vanes should have the edges with cut corners (or the notched edges, if the vanes are reversible) pointing toward the bottom of the vane slot.

Clean the Shaft

Every week, clean any dried fluid from around the bearing (38) area of the shaft (14).

Agitator Blades

Materials can become electrostatically charged when stirred or blended. To prevent fire and explosion, ground equipment and do not allow material to build up on agitator. Dried material could allow static build up and interfere with grounding.

Regularly check the agitator for dried material buildup.

Clean using a rag soaked in solvent that is compatible with the spray material and the surfaces being cleaned.

Additionally, extra precautions need to be taken if using lower conductive materials (<1000 pS/m) such as:

• Avoid stirring/mixing at high speeds.

• Avoid insoluble mixtures.

• When possible, increase the material conductivity with additives.

• Use liquids with a high conductivity (>1000 pS/m).
