2.3. Prevent Damage From Chemical Supplies and Chemical
Systems
This document uses Simplified Technical English.
Learn more at http://www.asd-ste100.org.
All Milnor® washer-extractors and CBW® tunnel washers use stainless steel with the AISI 304 specification. This material gives good performance when chemical supplies are correctly applied.
If chemical supplies are incorrectly applied, this material can be damaged. The damage can be very bad and it can occur quickly.
Chemical supply companies usually:
• supply chemical pump systems that put the supplies in the machine,
• connect the chemical pump system to the machine,
• write wash formulas that control the chemical concentrations.
The company that does these procedures must make sure that these procedures do not cause damage. Pellerin Milnor Corporation accepts no responsibility for chemical damage to the machines it makes or to the goods in a machine.
2.3.1. How Chemical Supplies Can Cause Damage
2.3.1.1. Dangerous Chemical Supplies and Wash Formulas—Some examples that can cause damage are:
• a very high concentration of chlorine bleach,
• a mixture of acid sour and hypo chlorite,
• chemical supplies (examples: chlorine bleach, hydrofluosilicic acid) that stay on the stainless steel because they are not quickly flushed with water.
The book “Textile Laundering Technology” by Charles L. Riggs gives data about correct chemical supplies and formulas.
2.3.1.2. Incorrect Configuration or Connection of Equipment—Many chemical systems:
• do not prevent a vacuum in the chemical tube (for example, with a vacuum breaker) when the pump is off,
• do not prevent flow (for example, with a valve) where the chemical tube goes in the machine.
Damage will occur if a chemical supply can go in the machine when the chemical system is off.
Some configurations of components can let the chemical supplies go in the machine by a siphon (Figure 3). Some can let chemical supplies go in the machine by gravity (Figure 4).

Figure 4: Incorrect Configurations That Let the Chemical Supply Go In the Machine by Gravity
Schematic Views
T. Chemical tank D. Chemical tube. Liquid in the gray areas can go in the machine.
2.3.2. Equipment and Procedures That Can Prevent Damage
2.3.2.1. Use the Chemical Manifold Supplied.—There is a manifold on the machine to attach chemical tubes from a chemical pump system. Figure 3 shows examples. The manifold has a source of water to flush the chemical supplies with water.
Figure 5: Examples of Manifolds for Chemical Tubes. Your equipment can look different.
2.3.2.2. Close the line.—If the pump does not always close the line when it is off, use a shutoff valve to do this.
2.3.2.3. Do not let a vacuum occur.—Supply a vacuum breaker in the chemical line that is higher than the full level of the tank.
2.3.2.4. Flush the chemical tube with water.—If the liquid that stays in the tube between the pump and the machine can flow in the machine, flush the tube with water after the pump stops.
2.3.2.5. Put the chemical tube fully below the machine inlet.—It is also necessary that there is no pressure in the chemical tube or tank when the system is off. Figure 6 shows this configuration.
Figure 6: A Configuration that Prevents Flow in the Machine When the Pump is Off (if the chemical tube and tank have no pressure)
Schematic View Legend
I. Chemical inlet on the machine
L. Chemical tube
T. Chemical tank
2.3.2.6. Prevent leaks.—When you do maintenance on the chemical pump system:
• Use the correct components.
• Make sure that all connections are the correct fit.
• Make sure that all connections are tight.

3.1. Routine Maintenance—Rubber Spring-resting, Tilt
Washer-extractor
This document uses Simplified Technical English.
Learn more at http://www.asd-ste100.org.
Do the maintenance in Section 3.1.2 “Maintenance Summary” to make sure that the machine is safe, keeps the warranty, and operates correctly. This will also decrease repair work and unwanted shutdowns. Speak to your dealer or Milnor if repairs are necessary.
WARNING 19 : Risk of severe injury—Mechanisms can pull in and mutilate your body.
• You must be approved by your employer for this work.
• Use extreme care when you must examine components in operation. Remove power from the machine for all other work. Obey safety codes. In the USA, this is the OSHA lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedure. More local requirements can also apply.
• Replace guards and covers that you remove for maintenance.
3.1.1. How To Show the Maintenance On a Calendar
If you use software to keep the maintenance schedule for your plant, add the items in Section
3.1.2 to that schedule. If not, you can put marks on a calendar that work with the tables in Section
3.1.2. The marks are the numbers 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. It is not necessary to show the number 1 (items you do each day) on the calendar. The number 2 = items you do each 40 to 60 hours, 3 = each 200 hours, 4 = each 600 hours, 5 = each 1200 hours, and 6 = each 2400 hours. These are the "Mark" numbers at the top of the narrow columns on the left of each table in Section 3.1.2.
Table 1 shows where to put the marks on a calendar. For example, if your machine operates between 41 and 60 hours each week, the first three marks are 2, 2, and 3. Put these marks on the first, second, and third weeks after the machine starts operation. If you do routine maintenance on a given day of the week, put the mark on that day of each week. Continue to put marks on the subsequent weeks. It can be necessary to do the 40 to 60 hour (2) maintenance more than one time each week. If the machine operates between 61 and 100 hours, put a 2 on two days of the week. If the machine operates 101 or more hours, put a 2 on three days of the week.
On each date with a 3, do the items with an x in the 3 or the 2 column of each table in Section
3.1.2. On each date with a 4, do the items with an x in the 4, 3, or 2 column. Continue this pattern.

3.1.4. Lubricant Identification and Procedures
Table 10 identifies the lubricant for each lubricant code given in the maintenance summary. Get these or equivalent lubricants from from your local lubricant supplier.
When you add grease, always use the procedures given in Section 3.1.4.1. When you add grease to motors, also use the procedures given in Section 3.1.4.3.
CAUTION 20 : Risk of damage—Bad lubricant will decrease the life of components.
• Make sure that all equipment and fittings used to apply lubricants are clean.
• Use only the given lubricants or equivalent lubricants that have the same specifications.

DOT3 oil NAPA SuperHeavy Duty Brake Fluid DOT 3 disk brakes
68 oil Shell Tellus 68 hydraulic system DE3 stick AGS Door-Ease DE-3 door latch plunger
3.1.4.1. Grease Gun Procedures
CAUTION 21 : Risk of damage—Hydraulic pressure can push out seals and push grease into unwanted areas (example: motor windings).
• Use a hand grease gun. A power grease gun gives too much pressure.
• Know the quantity of grease your grease gun gives each cycle (each stroke).
• Operate the grease gun slowly (10 to 12 seconds for one cycle).
• Add only the specified quantity. Stop if new grease come out of a drain port or other opening.
• Remove spilled grease from belts and pulleys.
The tables give grease quantities in fluid ounces (fl oz) and milliliters (mL). You can also use grease gun cycles (strokes). A cycle is each time that you pull the trigger. One cycle is usually approximately 0.06 fl oz (1.8 mL). Your grease gun can give more or less than this. Measure the output of your grease gun as follows:
1. Make sure that the grease gun operates correctly.
2. Operate the grease gun to put grease into a small container with fluid ounce or milliliter increments. Pull the trigger fully and slowly.
3. Add a sufficient quantity of grease to measure accurately. Count the number of cycles of the grease gun (the number of times that you pull the trigger).
4. Calculate the quantity for each cycle of the grease gun.
Example: 2 fl oz / 64 cycles = 0.031 fl oz for each cycle
Example: 59 mL / 64 cycles = 0.92 mL for each cycle
3.1.4.2. Procedures for Bearing Components Connected to a Grease Plate—Your machine has a grease plate on the machine housing or the shell. You add grease to components of the bearing housing at this location. The correct procedure is to add grease when the cylinder turns at wash speed, but obey these precautions:
• For all other grease maintenance, add grease with power removed from the machine.
• If the grease plate on your machine is not serviceable (if you must add grease at a different location), add grease with power removed from the machine.
• If you must remove a guard to get access to the grease plate, prevent access to the machine by other personnel.
If you obey these precautions, use the Manual mode to operate the machine at wash speed. Then add grease at the grease plate.
3.1.4.3. Procedures for Motors—If a motor on your machine does not have grease fittings, no grease maintenance is necessary. If a motor on your machine has grease fittings, it is necessary to add grease. But the interval is usually longer than for other maintenance. Table 11 gives motor grease intervals and quantities for motors with specified frame sizes and speeds. You get this data from the motor nameplate. Use Table 7 in Section 3.1.2 to record the data for the motors on your machine.

CAUTION 22 : Risk of damage—You can push grease into the windings and burn out the motor if you fail to remove the grease drain plugs.
• If the motor has grease drain plugs, remove them before you add grease. If the motor has grease relief fittings, it is not necessary to remove them.
Apply grease as follows:
1. Operate the machine or use manual functions to operate the motor until it is warm.
2. Remove power from the machine.
3. If the motor has grease drain plugs, remove them. See caution statement 22 .
4. Add grease EM (Table 10) with the motor stopped. If the motor with the nameplate in Figure 7 operates at 60 Hz, the specified grease quantity for each grease fitting is 0.65 fl oz (18.4 mL).
5. If the motor has a grease drain plugs, operate the machine or use manual functions to operate the motor for two hours. Replace the drain plug.

Figure 8: Belt and Pulley Conditions To Look For. See Supplement 1.
Types of Belt Damage How to Find a Worn Pulley
1. Broken cord—damage from a sharp object.
2. Cracks—belt is too large for the pulley.
3. Shiny side walls—oil or grease on belt.
4. The belt layers disconnect—Oil or grease.
5. Bands on side walls—dirt, particles.
6. Incorrect: The pulley is too worn.
7. Correct: The belt only touches the side walls. You can put a thin strip of paper into the space between the belt and the pulley.

Supplement 1 How to Examine Belts and Pulleys
With power removed:
• Look for dirt, dust, oil, and grease. Remove contamination.
• Look for belt damage as shown in Figure 8.
• Look for worn pulleys as shown in Figure 8.
With the machine in operation—Do not touch the machine. Look and listen:
• A belt can have some vibration and not cause damage. It is necessary to correct this condition only if the vibration is large.
• A belt must have sufficient tension that there is no slippage on the pulley during operation.
If slippage occurs, you can usually tell from the noise.
About Component Replacement and Tension Adjustment—Correct adjustment is very important to the service life of components and operation of the machine. Your Milnor dealer can do this work. If you know how to do this work (for example, correctly align belts and pulleys), and you want to do it, speak to your dealer or Milnor for part numbers. Replace worn components before you make tension adjustments.
• Machines that use rods with full threads and nuts to hold the position of the motor base—Turn the nuts on the rods as necesary to adjust tension. Tighten the nuts.
• Machines that use a spring to hold tension on the motor base—Use the belt tension sleeve supplied with the machine. Put the sleeve on the rod that the spring is attached to or remove the sleeve to increase or decrease tension. Replace the spring if necessary.
