OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE GUIDELINE

(A) INSTALLATION

1. Check level and tighten all the foundation bolts.

2. Check and tighten all the bolts that fastened the machine to the platform.

3. Connect all wires from starter to the respective motor terminals.

4. Connect all feeding hoppers, connecting chutes and by-passes and ensure that
they are properly supported and fastened.

5. Fill gearbox with lubricant ISO VG 460 or equivalent to correct level (~90L).

6. Fill up bearing housing with lubricant Shell Omala 320 or equivalent to correct
level (~5L).

7. Fill up Hydraulic Power Pack with Shell 68 Hydraulic Oil or equivalent to the
correct level (~120L).

8. Apply a coat of grease to Chain Coupling.

9. Check gearbox and motor pulley alignment and belt tension.

(B) COMMISSIONING AND OPERATING

1. Check and ensure that all bolts and nuts of the machine are fastened.

2. Check and ensure that no part is missing from the machine. All protective guards
must be in placed.

3. Check and ensure that there are no foreign materials present in the housing of the
machine.

4. Check and ensure that the scroll can rotate freely by hand.

5. Check and ensure that all the knives are set correctly.
6. Check and ensure motor overload setting according to starter type as below:
i. Auto-Trans: 135A
ii. Star-Delta: 78A

7. Set the Hydraulic Power Pack to manual operation and set the Hydraulic Plug to
the “fully open” position.

8. Pulse the motor and check that the scroll is rotating in the correct direction.*

9. Start motor and let it runs up to maximum operation speed. If abnormal noise
occurs, stop the machine.

10. While in operation, check the ammeter reading at the starter for any abnormal
reading. If ampere is higher than the normal reading at no loads, check the
voltage, frequency and phasing of the power supply.

11. Check bearings. If excessive heat build-up, stop the machine.

12. Commence to feed EFB into the machine.

13. To stop the machine, set the Hydraulic Power Pack to manual operation and set
the Hydraulic Plug to the “fully open” position. Allow all EFB in the press cage to
be cleared and the motor load to drop. Use Palm Kernel Shell to flush out
remaining EFB before switching off motor starter.

* Please take note that this is not designed to operate in reverse for any purpose.
Machine & parts may be damaged in reverse operation.

(C) MAINTENANCE
BEFORE START UP:

1. Before start-up, check and ensure that there are no foreign materials present in the
main housing.

2. Check conditions of the machine and ensure that there is not missing parts and all
protective guards are in placed.

3. Check and ensure that the safety switches are functional.

4. Check gearbox, bearing housing and hydraulic oil and top-up if necessary.

5. Check belt tension and adjust if necessary.

 DAILY

1. Clean residual fine fibre and sludge from the Shaft Pipe and Stainless Steel Tray
with water and the special tool provided every 4 hours of operation and at the end
of operation day.

WEEKLY

1. Dismantle knives and check condition of wear and tear. If worn out, recondition
or replace new parts. Refer to “Recommended Preventive Maintenance Schedule”
section for further instruction.

2. Check condition of scroll, die-head, press cage, scraper blades and bronze bush. If
worn out, recondition or replace new parts.

3. Check condition of the belts and belt tension. Adjust or replace if necessary.

4 Check and top-up lubricant for gearbox, bearing housing and hydraulic tank

5. Check condition of bearings and oils seals and if worn out, recondition or replace
new parts.

6. Check that all bolts & nuts are tight.

YEARLY

1. Change lubricant for the gearbox and bearing housing.

2. Service motor starter contactors and check condition of wiring to motor.

3. Lubricate motor bearings.

Note : The first lubricant oil change for gearbox and bearing housing must be
made after 800 operating hours.

Cyclinder, from Pot-A to Pot A and Pot-B to Pot-B respectively as shown in Drawing-C.

DIRECTIONAL SOLENOID VALVE

1) The Din-Plug to be wire connect to control panel as shown in the Electrical Diagram
COOLING FAN

1) The Cooling Fan wire to be connect to control panel as shown in the Electrical Diagram

MAIN PRESSURE SETTING

1) Set the Main Pressure by turning the knob at Pressure Control Valve to 1000 psi

PRESSURE CONTROL (COUNTER BALANCE VALVE)

1) To be set during commissioning

CURRENT RELAY SETTING

1) The hydraulic press system are control by the Main Machine Motor Operating Amps.

2) Set the “Min” to 8 Amps and “High” to 60 Amps (Setting Amps) at the Current Relay in the
Hydraulic Press Control Panel.

OPERATION

After complete of all the connection and setting of the Machine and Hydraulic Press System.

1) Before operating, check by manual test the hydraulic press system by manual open and close the
Press Cone to ensure that the system are in proper connection.

2) Fully open the Press Cone.

TO START

1) Start the Main Machine and free run.

2) Start the Hydraulic Press System at “Manual” mode and the Press Cone are in fully open position.

4) Turn the selector switch from Manual Mode to Auto Mode and the Press Cone will automatically
Close and will Stop at the Close Limit Switch Setting Position.
5) When the Main Motor amps reading reach the “Setting Amps”, the hydraulic system will
automatically release pressure by opening the Press Cone and will close when the amps are lower.
6) The setting Amps can be increase between 60 to 80 amps and are depends on operation need to
increase the squeezing pressure.

Note: High (over Setting) of the “Setting Amps” may cause damage/failure to machine parts.
