start-up the conveyor system
Start-up of the conveyor system must be carried out under the instruction of specialists from BUCYRUS .
WARNING MAKE SURE THAT NOBODY IS PRESENT IN THE DANGER AREA OF THE CONVEYOR SYSTEM WHEN YOU START OPERATING THE CONVEYOR. PARTICULARLY DURING THE FIRST START-UP A SAFE DISTANCE SHOULD BE KEPT WITH RESPECT TO THE CONVEYOR AS E.G. DUE TO INSTALLATION ERRORS HAZARDS MAY OCCUR WHICH WOULD NOT OCCUR DURING NORMAL OPERATION. A SAFE DISTANCE SHOULD BE KEPT WITH RESPECT TO THE CONVEYOR!
IN ADDITION, OBSERVE THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE SEPARATE OPERATING MANUALS FOR THE CONVEYOR COMPONENTS, E.G. ELECTRIC MOTORS, GEAR BOXES, DRIVE CONNECTIONS, ETC.
before start-up
NOTICE
The following work has to be performed before beginning with the actual start-up: Align the conveyor. Remove all tools, auxiliary equipment, etc. from the conveyor and your working area. Check all bolted connections, in particular the connections of the drives. Check that all the bolted connections are tightened to the specified torque. Check the hydraulic connections and pipes/hoses for leaks or damage. Check the proper laying of all the supply lines. Check the hydraulic plug connectors. In particular, check that the coupling clamps are completely pushed in.
DANGER YOU COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR EVEN KILLED BY A JUMPING HYDRAULIC HOSE! SECURE THE CONNECTORS OF THE HYDRAULIC ELEMENTS ONLY WITH THE PROPER COUPLING CLAMPS. ALWAYS FASTEN THE CLAMPS COMPLETELY AND WITH BOTH SIDES. NEVER USE NAILS, WIRE OR SIMILAR MATERIALS FOR SECURING.
Check the oil level and the cooling of the gear boxes. Check the cooling of the electric motors. Check the direction of rotation of the electric motors. Check the electrical connections. Test the sequencing control of the conveyor drives. Test the function of the signaling devices and the intercom system
