SERIES 34, 34.1 34.2T & 34.3T GEAREDUCERS® SERVICE MANUAL PROTECTION AGAINST CORROSION ‘As shipped from the Marley factory, Geareducers are pro- tected against corrosion with enamels and rust-proofing cil and grease. These oil and grease coatings normally pro- tect the Geareducer for storage periods of six months. However, if oil is put into the Geareducer, it will dissolve the rust-proofing grease and oil, thus requiring the Geare- ducer to be run once a week in order to keep a prote coating of oil on ail interior machined surfaces. See "Sea sonal Shutdown” section of this manual for Information about nonoperating period maintenance. Check Geareducer exterior yearly. Touch up with paint as required. Exposed pipe threads are coated to prevint cor- rosion, Touch up coating as required, INITIAL OPERATION Check all assombly bolts and cap screws for tightness. Geareducer vent or vent line must be open to prevent failure of pinion shaft oll seal. In order to check vent line, disconnect it and run a wite through it or blow air ‘through it, Check mechanical equipment anchor bolts, drive shaft coupling bolts, and coupling set screws and tighten as required. Geareducers supplied with new towers include oil for ‘the initial filling. Before operating the machanical equio- ‘ment, check t0 be sure the oil level is at the full mark at the Geareducer and that the external sight glass placord {full mark corresponds with the full level in the Geare- ducer. Check oil lines to be sure there are no leeks and all joints are tight, After the first week of operation, the original lubricating oil should be replaced. See section, page 3 for instructions for changing oll. Lubricating oil is not furnished with Geareducers supplied {5 spares or on replacement orders, Soe list of suggested lubricants on page 6 and “Service and Lubrication” section, page 3 for oil filling instructions, After the Geareducer has been filled to the full mark’ at the Geareducer, make sure there are no oil leaks. Check to be sure the oil full mark at the external sight glass placard corresponds with the full level in the Geareducer, SEASONAL SHUTDOWN (one week to three months) 1. At start of shutdown periods, operate Geareducer until Oil is warm (120°F); then stop it and change the oil. ‘See section on Lubrication. 2. Each week, drain any water condensation from the Towest point of the Geareducer and its oll system. Check the coil level and add oil If necessary. Operate ‘the Geareducer long enough to recoat all the interior surfacos with ofl. 3. To put back into operation, drain water condensate and check oil level. Add oil f necessary. For longer periods of shutdown, see Marley “Instruction Manual for Shutdown of Mechanical Draft Cooling Towers”. INSPECTION OF INTERNAL PARTS Remove the inspection cover plate from the side of the Goareducer case at each oil change. Check inside of Geare- ducer for cleanliness of case and internal parts. If any sludge is present, flush inside of Geareducer and connecting oil system. ‘Also at this time, observe the contact pattern of the gear teeth to see if they appear as illustrated on page 5. If incorrect gear tooth pattern should occur, refer to Marley Field Repair Manual for Series 34, 34.1 & 34.27, or 24.3T Geareducers. (Pinion FRESHLY RW __—_—_— INTERSTAGE SHAFT.
