  • Follow manufacturer guidelines for replacement.
  • Dispose of old filters according to regulations.
  • Look for cracks, frays, or bulges in hoses.
  • Check connectors for tightness and integrity.
  • Replace any damaged hoses or connections.
  • Use a clean cloth to wipe grease fittings.
  • Remove dirt and debris around fittings carefully.
  • Ensure fittings are accessible for future maintenance.
  • Monitor the oil pressure gauge during operation.
  • Look for fluctuations that indicate issues.
  • Investigate any irregularities immediately.
  • Use a maintenance log for tracking.
  • Record specific lubricant type and quantity.
  • Sign off on maintenance completion.
  • Listen for odd sounds while the machine is running.
  • Feel for unusual vibrations through equipment.
  • Investigate any anomalies promptly.
  • Observe grease flow at each lubrication point.
  • Ensure no points are over or under-greased.
  • Adjust lubrication frequency based on observations.
  • Set a date for a follow-up inspection.
  • Notify maintenance personnel of potential issues.
  • Document findings for review during the next inspection.

4. Mechanical Components

  • Check for visible wear or damage on the blow bars.
  • Ensure blow bars are properly secured in place.
  • Measure the thickness of the blow bars, comparing to specifications.
  • Replace any blow bars showing excessive wear or damage.
  • Look for cracks, chips, or significant wear on impact plates.
  • Check for proper alignment with the blow bars.
  • Ensure all bolts and fasteners are tight and secure.
  • Replace any damaged or excessively worn plates immediately.
  • Inspect rotor for cracks or deformation.
  • Check for wear on the rotor's edges and surfaces.
  • Ensure rotor is balanced to prevent vibration.
  • Replace or repair any damaged components as necessary.
  • Check liner plates for wear and deformation.
  • Ensure plates are aligned correctly with no gaps.
  • Inspect for secure mounting and tight fasteners.
  • Replace worn or misaligned liner plates promptly.
  • Inspect hoses and connections for leaks.
  • Check hydraulic fluid levels against specifications.
  • Look for signs of contamination in the fluid.
  • Top off or replace fluid as necessary to maintain levels.
  • Test the adjuster for smooth operation.
  • Check for signs of wear or damage to components.
  • Ensure settings are accurately reflected on the gauge.
  • Adjust or repair mechanisms as needed for proper function.
  • Inspect belts for cracks, fraying, or excessive wear.
  • Check tension levels and adjust as needed.
  • Ensure pulleys are aligned and free of debris.
  • Replace any worn or damaged belts immediately.
  • Check for excessive heat buildup on bearings.
  • Listen for unusual noises during operation.
  • Inspect lubrication levels and add grease if necessary.
  • Replace any bearings showing signs of wear or damage.
  • Check for material blockages in the hopper.
  • Inspect hopper walls for wear or damage.
  • Ensure all access points are clear and operational.
  • Clean out any debris or buildup to prevent issues.
  • Inspect chute for blockages or material buildup.
  • Check for proper alignment with the discharge point.
  • Ensure there are no gaps or leaks in the chute.
  • Clear any obstructions and adjust alignment as needed.
  • Check springs for cracks, deformation, or wear.
  • Inspect suspension components for stability and security.
  • Ensure springs are functioning correctly without excessive sagging.
  • Replace any damaged or worn springs immediately.
  • Inspect all visible bolts and fasteners for tightness.
  • Use a torque wrench to verify proper torque levels.
  • Look for signs of loosening or wear on fasteners.
  • Retighten or replace any loose or damaged bolts.
  • Monitor for excessive vibrations during operation.
  • Inspect all components for secure mounting.
  • Check for misalignment or imbalance in moving parts.
  • Investigate and address any sources of abnormal vibrations.
  • Check for proper water flow or dust suppression fluid.
  • Inspect nozzles for clogs or damage.
  • Ensure system activates correctly during operation.
  • Repair or replace any non-functioning components.
