Maintenance; Replacing The Belt - Sima HALCÓN 90 Manual De Instrucciones

6. MAINTENANCE

Maintenance operations should be performed by people who know the machine and its functioning.
The most basic are summarized below and some recommendations for implementation:
• Any machine handling should be done with the engine stopped and, if electrically powered
machines, the power cord must be disconnected.
• Always consider the safety recommendations mentioned in this manual as well as appearing on the
engine.
• Grease periodically arms of the blades through the four lubrication points located in the signature
dish A, Fig.13
• Do not use pressurized water to clean circuits and electrical components.
• If the machine is not covered, cover it with waterproof material.
• Check the gearbox oil level through the viewfinder.
• ATTENTION: the partial or total lack of oil in the gearboxes causes premature wear of its
component parts. The oil to use in the gearbox must meet the following characteristics:
Designation ISO VG 320 and CLP-320 according to DIN 51502. If necessary replace oil,
remove the filler cap located on the left side of the gearbox and fill to complete the recommended
oil level with good quality and specific for treat bronze elements, for example, those listed below:
FABRICANTE
FUCHS RENOLIN -------------------------------------------MP 320
CASTROL----------------------------------------------------ALFHA SP 320
BP-----------------------------------------------------------GRXP 320
MOBIL-------------------------------------------------------MOBILGEAR 632
SHELL--------------------------------------------------------OMALA-320
REPSOL------------------------------------------------------SUPERTAURO 320
• For gasoline engines, control the level of engine oil by placing the machine in a horizontal surface.
Engines mounted on the HALCON Power Trowel, are alarmed by low oil level, so that when the level
falls below the minimum the engine will stop and does not start until you have added enough oil.
Use oil SAE 15W-40
Necessary maintenance operations on the engine are described in its own book of instructions, and
the frequency with which to perform them. It is necessary to comply with all maintenance
operations specified in the instruction books of the engine.
• Clean the machine as often as necessary, as the normal working process leads to an accumulation
of dust and concrete. If water pressure is used careful not to direct it to the engine.
• Be sure to remove the machine tools and devices used in each maintenance operation.
• Replace as soon as any electrical wire breaks or it shows any kind of cuts.
• If anomaly is found, checking the malfunctioning machine must be done by a qualified technician as
soon as possible.
It is prohibited to independently make any change in some parts, components or characteristics of
the machine. SIMA, S. A. shall in no case be responsible for the consequences that may derive from a
breach of these recommendations.

6.1 REPLACING THE BELT

The transmission belt T, Fig.9 and Fig.14 is an item that wears out and deteriorates with the normal use of
the machine and it must be replaced periodically. So we will withdraw the guard of the pulleys P, Fig.9 and Fig.14
loosening its screws and make those changes. This operation is not difficult because the engine is stopped and the belt
tension is loosening.
