As can be seen from the name, the hard tooth surface reducer is to reduce the speed of the equipment when it is running, and to ensure that it is at a relatively slow speed, because it also needs to rotate, so its lubrication must be ensured when used, which requires relatively high lubricants. Some lubricants that have been used for a long time can no longer fully play their role and may even affect the use of the equipment, so the lubricating oil of the equipment needs to be replaced.
1. The equipment must be kept warm when changing oil. Place a clean drain pan under the drain plug. Then open the oil level plug, breather and drain plug. Drain all used oil from the well. Then install the oil drain plug. Then inject the same type of oil. The amount of oil should be consistent with the installation position. Check the oil level at the oil level plug. Make sure the oil level plug and breather are tight.
2. When replacing, it should be noted that different lubricating oils cannot be mixed, and new and old lubricating oils cannot be mixed with each other, otherwise the hardened surface reducer will be damaged.
3. For reducers with oil level plugs, you need to check the oil level and check whether the oil in the oil level plug needs to be replaced. After cooling, the viscosity of the oil will increase, making it difficult to drain the oil, so the equipment should be replaced at operating temperature.
4. When checking the oil level, cut off the power supply and put it in a stopped state. After waiting for the reducer to cool down, unscrew the oil level plug and check whether there is a lack of oil. Tighten the oil level plug. To check the oil, you need to cut off the power first to avoid electric shock, wait for the reducer to cool down, then open the oil drain plug and take an oil sample. If the oil is checked and found to be turbid, it is recommended to replace it as soon as possible.
The above describes how to replace the lubricating oil of a hard-tooth surface reducer. It is generally recommended to replace the lubricating oil after it has been used for a period of time. Do not wait until oil scale has been generated before replacing it. At this time, the equipment has already been damaged.
