Operating Safely
List of Dangers Associated with Operating the Pump
In the Common Market countries, the installation must comply with directive 2006/42/CE and subsequent modifications, while in the other countries it must comply with the safety regulations of the country.
This Rotary blades vacuum pump has been designed to create a vacuum or pressure inside a tank connected to it.
Under no circumstances must liquids, dust or any kind of solid matter enter the Rotary blades
vacuum pump because they could cause it to break. Therefore it is necessary to equip the system
with safety valves.
The use of the Rotary blades vacuum pump for any purpose other than that specified above is absolutely
forbidden, not provided for by the manufacturer and therefore highly dangerous. Do not use the Rotary blades vacuum pump to handle flammable and/or explosive liquids and materials or for materials that give off flammable gasses.
Read This Manual Before Using The Suction Unit/Compressor Do not use the rotary blades vacuum pump in a potentially explosive atmosphere. Never remove the guards fitted on the Rotary blades vacuum pump and always check
their efficiency every time the machine is used. Any work on the machine must be carried out while it is not running.

Failure to comply with the instructions given in this manual may lead to the following dangers:
Danger of being crushed by the Rotary blades vacuum pump mass during handling and transport;
Danger of getting entangled in the shaft transmission parts if the necessary guards are removed;
Heat dangers due to the temperatures that can be reached by the Rotary blades vacuum pump;
Acoustic danger due to the noise generated and to failure to use personal means of protection;
Danger to operators hands during testing with suction and delivery tubes detached from the pump;
Danger of abrasion from the shaft of the hydraulic pump support if the Rotary blades vacuum pump is operated
with the hydraulic pump removed;
Danger of projection of fluid and solid materials owing to an heavy breakage of the Rotary blades vacuum pump.
Danger of asphyxiation due to methane gases
Danger of projection of liquid or gas through partially blocked gate valves
Danger of projection of hydraulic oil through faulty fittings or damaged hose
Users should become thoroughly familiar with the contents of this manual before using, servicing and mounting the
implement to the tractor and all other pertinent operations. Never wear jewellery, loose clothing such as ties, scarves,
belts, unbuttoned jackets or dungarees with open zips which could become caught up in moving parts.
Always wear approved garments complying with accident prevention provisions such as non-slip shoes, ear muffs,
goggles and gauntlets. Wear a jacket with reflecting stickers if the implement is used near public highways.
Consult your retailer, the Labour Health Service or your nearest equivalent authority for the information about the current safety provisions and specific regulations with in order to ensure personal safety.
ALWAYS DISENGAGE PTO, SWITCH OFF THE TRACTOR ENGINE AND ENGAGE THE PARKING BRAKE BEFORE MAKING ADJUSTMENT TO THE MACHINE.
NEVER PLACE LIMBS UNDER THE MACHINE WHILE ROTORS ARE TURNING. ROTORS CAN REMAIN TURNING FOR UP TO 1 MINUTE AFTER DISENGAGING PTO.
Workstation
The operator must remain seated while working the machine. Always ensure the PTO has been turned off and the
parking brake applied before leaving the tractor cab. The operator must always apply the parking brake, and turn off
the engine before leaving machine or carrying out maintenance.
NEVER OPERATE THE HYDRAULICS WITH THE TRACTOR SWITCHED OFF
Regulations for use of the transmission

The transmission to the gearboxes is protected throughout the machine by both PTO shafts and bolt down covers.
All guarding should be kept efficient and in good condition. If the condition is poor, the guarding should be renewed
before the implement is used.
4
UNLESS IT IS CORRECTLY PROTECTED THE TRANSMISSION COULD CAUSE DEATH SINCE IT CAN CATCH
ON PARTS OF THE BODY OR CLOTHING
Ensure retaining chains are correctly anchored on all PTO shafts, preventing them form turning. Ensure drive line can
turn easily within the shield. Keep spline grooves clean and greased so that PTO shaft can connect easily. Besides
being described in this manual, the method by which the PTO shaft is connected to the tractor must be checked out
with the instructions in the tractor manufacturers manual.
PTO Shaft Safety

MAX PTO INPUT 540 R.P.M. Contact your nearest dealer or a specialised retail outlet if the PTO must be replaced
with a longer one, since this must belong to the same power category and possess the same characteristics. An
unsuitable PTO could easily break.
The tractor PTO shaft length may be altered to suit the individual tractor model. When
the machine is in operation, the PTO shaft should have a minimum 1/3 engagement as
shown in the diagrams. After the Topper has been hitched to the tractor, it should be
checked in various positions that the drive line is the correct length. If the PTO is too
short and tends to slip out of place, it must be replaced with a longer one.
If the PTO shaft is too long, it should be shortened in the following way:

Set the machine at a minimum distance from the tractor, then brake the tractor and switch off the engine.
Separate the two halves of the PTO. Insert the female part into the tractor PTO and
the male part into the Topper PTO, checking that the position is correct by means of
the fixing pins.
Line up the two halves of the PTO together, keeping them parallel.
Using a felt tip pen, match mark the place where the two halves must be shortened
as shown.
First cut shield 1 and use part 2 as a reference to cut the splined
shaft.
Proceed in the same way for the second half.
Trim and chamfer the two cut ends of the PTO and clean off all swarf
and shavings.
Grease the two profiles and join the two halves of the PTO together.
Mount the PTO shaft and check that its length is correct as before.
The shaft must not reach the end of the tube or project from this. Ensure the PTO does not bottom when turning
Driving Safely on Public Roads

Check the local Highway Code regulations before driving the tractor on public highways with a towed implement.
Check the reflectors, hazard flashers and/or projecting load indicators are installed when required and efficient. These
indicators must be installed correctly and easily seen by the drivers of other vehicles.
Bystanders must not be allowed to lean against or climb onto the machine during transport or while working. Do not
allow bystanders to ride on the machine. MAXIMUM TRANSPORT SPEED MUST NOT EXCEED 30Km/Hr.

Filling operation
1. Read all items of sections Safety instructions and Maintenance.
2. Attach the filling hose to the quick fill assembly.
3. Ensure the rear valve is open by using the manual operating handle.
4. The suction fill pipe must be completely submersed into the slurry before operation.
5. Set the pump oil drip feed to 1 drop every 3 seconds.
6. Place the pump operating lever in the suction position as shown in figure 4.
7. Engage the PTO at low r.p.m and allow to build to 350 r.p.m.
8. Watch for the appearance of slurry in the sight glass at the front of the tank when this occurs, shut the inlet valve
gate valve.
9. Move the pump operation lever to neutral position.
10. Remove the suction fill pipe.
Emptying operation
1. When arrived at the point of spreading, place the pump to pressure position (opposite the suction position)
2. Open the gate valve on the tanker via the Hydraulic control. Engage the PTO at a low r.p.m., approximately 350
r.p.m., and while at the same time moving forward.
3. From the manufacturers extensive filed testing, it has been found that the lightest and heaviest spread of slurry is
obtained by:
a) Lightest: Place the distribution plate (see below) in the 90 degree position to the ground surface to obtain the
widest throw of slurry possible with fast forward speed.
b) Heaviest: Place the distribution plate in a 150 degree position (sloped back) with a slow forward speed.
Operating the Vacuum Pump

The Rotary blades vacuum pump does not have a start button. Therefore to start it just transmit the motion to the
power take-off (P.T.O.). The way this is done depends on the version of Rotary blades vacuum pump. Before starting
make sure that the rotary blades vacuum pump is supplied with oil for internal lubrication and lubrication of gearbox.
NOTE: Before starting the rotary blades vacuum pump, make sure that the guards on all the moving parts are in
place and efficient. Any damaged or missing components must be replaced and installed correctly before using the
transmission. Clean and grease the power take off before to install the cardan transmission.
Do not use the Rotary blades vacuum pump at pressures, temperatures, times higher than those indicated in Table
6. During use do not exceed the speed and power limits set in this manual. Do not overload the machine or suddenly
engage the P.T.O.

NOTE: Failure to comply with the instructions given in this manual may be dangerous for the user health or may
damage the rotary blades vacuum pump. If density of material to suck is high, dilute or mix the material same. The
working time should be such that the maximum temperature is never reached. Prolonged operation without interruption may cause damage to the blades as well as overheating.
To stop the rotary blades vacuum pump, stop the engine and disconnect the P.T.O. in order to prevent accidental
operation of it.
Controls: A handle, located at the top of the manifold, is provided for the control of intake and compression phases.
This can be operated manually. To state in wich direction the handle ha sto be turned to select suction or compression
phase, follow the instructions given by the manufacturer of the installation. If the reverse gear locks up, use a lever to
lift the handle.
NOTE: Selection of the intake or compression phase with the handle must be made with the Rotary blades vacuum
pump not operating.
Temperature Indicator: Thermo Tape is affixed on the compression side of all Mec 9000-11000-13500 versions.
This temperature indicator provides two temperature readouts:
The reversible scale at the bottom changes colour (from black to blue) at a specific temperature (90 C to 120 C). The scale is provided to help the user prevent
the pump from overheating.
A blue square with a white dot at the centre (a non-reversible indicator) is located
at the upper right on the scale. If the dot turns black, the temperature has exceeded
160 C, which means the pump has been used for more than 15 minutes at its
maximum vacuum level (which is an incorrect use). If this occurs, the pump must be
disassembled and all the seals, oil seals and blades must be replaced.
Protective Devices:
NOTE: The Rotary blades vacuum pump, when being installed on a machine, must be equipped with a protective
device to isolate the moving parts and prevent access to them by the operators. It is necessary to protect the Rotary
blades vacuum pump to avoid the remote danger of material projection in case of heavy breakage. PTO powered
vacuum pumps are equipped with a CE plastic protective device. It insulates and protects the operator from the P.T.O.
shaft during operation.
Pressure
Pressure under operating conditions should be kept within the range of 0.5-1 bar to avoid overheating the Vacuum
pump or breaking the blade (Vanes). However do not exceed a pressure of 1.5 bar.

Hydraulic Powered vacuum pump

The following procedure must be followed before use. Failure to do so will result in oil seal failure in the
hydraulic driven pump.

The main feed to the pump must never exceed bore and enter the hydraulic pump on the smallest port.
The return flow should have a minimum bore from the largest port and be allowed a free flow return into the
gearbox if the tractor (usually by making an adaptor where the oil plug is) not by going through any valve block
system. Contact your tractor dealer or manufacturer for further details if you are uncertain of free flow return line.
Any backpressure will result in seal failure, such as using small bore tubing or allowing return pipe to foul,
restricting oil flow.
Never alternate hydraulic pipes. The motor will only drive in one direction.
It is normal for the motor to reduce in speed as the tanker reaches full pressure or full vacuum.
Change oil in tractor regularly with oil and change filters regularly.
Always when travelling on public roads place tanker in vacuum mode.
Never bring hydraulic pipes into tractor cab or where it could be a danger to the driver.
In the event of a failure, contact your dealer. Do not attempt to repair oil pump, but first establish whether the fault
is the hydraulic pump or the compressor.

Emergency Breakaway Handle

The emergency breakaway handbrake should be connected to the tractor every time the tank is been used. It should
be done using the rope provided. The rope should be attached to a solid party of the tractor like the top pin and not to
a panel on the tractor. The rope should be tight enough so it will work effectively if the tanker became detached from
the tractor but loose enough that the handbrake has not bee applied during normal operation.
Disengaging the emergency breakaway handbrake by following the steps below:
1.

2.
3.
4.
Make sure the clip in front of the ratchet is facing forward or turned towards the pump on the tanker. If the clip is
turned away from the pump the ratchet mechanism will not release.
Push the handle toward the tanker so the ratchet becomes tight against the teeth that hold it in place.
Pull the handle away from the tanker so the ratchet will disconnect itself from the teeth.
Push the handle back to its original off position.
It is important to check that the handbrake is fully released when the tanker is in use. If the brake is left half
applied it will cause damage to the brakes on the tanker
6 Autocoupler
The Auto Coupler hydraulic circuit incorporates a hydraulic pressure valve, which is pre-set, by the manufacturer prior to the tankers dispatch. Altering the valve can increase the sealing pressure. An incorrectly set
valve can damage the machine.

tank on the previous page).
Operate Stone Trap Gate Valve to allow slurry into Garda pump
The rain gun spreading direction can be rotated to a desired direction by double acting valve on the tractor.
A stone trap is fitted on the bottom of the tank; this is to be cleaned out regularly during the working day.
PTO speed maximum is 540 R.P.M.
Operation of the Road Blaster

A clean water source is vital for the Road Blaster to function correctly.
Follow the following instructions carefully.
1. Connect the two hydraulic hoses for the
Road Blaster lift ram to a double-acting valve
on the tractor and check that it lifts & lowers the
blaster bar.
2. Adjust the angle of the Blaster to wash either
to the left or right & lock in position.
3. Engage PTO & open stone trap gate valve.
4. For the differing conditions, vary forward
speed & tractor RPM to find optimum cleaning
ability.
5. Periodically check stone trap filter. Stone trap
filter is held in place by a 4 BSP thread.

Maintenance
A. GENERAL
Good, regular maintenance and correct use are essential if this machine is to remain safe and long lasting.
If any of these areas are neglected, it will affect the life of the tanker:
1.

2.
3.
4.

5.

7.
8.

9.
Check the oil level in the gear box at the front of the pump. The level should be seen to be up to the top of the see
through plug.
Change the oil after the first 50 working hours (running in period) and thereafter every 300 working hours.
Check daily that the level of the cooling is always ABOVE the mark of the dip stick.
To prolong the life of the vanes in the pump, it is important to flush out the pump with diesel oil after every working
day. This is done by sucking 1 litre of diesel in through the air intake while the pump is on the pressure setting,
(as for spreading). An extra precaution is also to suck a small amount of reservoir oil into the pump to lubricate it
and minimise rusting.
If the tanker is to be left unused for a long time, remove the hose that connects the pump to the tank. This avoids
the transfer of gases from the tank to the pump, which can cause rusting.
Check that the cut out valve protecting the pump are in full working order. Ensure that the cut out balls are not soft
and spongy. Replace the small ball every 12 months.
Check the wheel nuts and wheel bearings daily for tightness.
Check daily that the tongue in the discharge valve will open fully. If it does not, then the top of the valve complete
with the ram should be withdrawn by removing the six Allen key screws and the top of the housing cleaned out.
Failure to do this will result in breaking of the valve rod or rod tongue. NOTE: Breakages of this type are not
covered by warranty.
Do not weld tank without opening rear door.
DANGER: SLURRY GASES CAN KILL
Keep animals and people out of slatted houses when mixing is in progress.
Secure suction hoses to prevent them falling into the tank.
Dont stand near tank openings or stoop to floor level when mixing is in progress
Never enter a below ground level tank unless there is no alternative. If you have to go in wear a lifeline held by
two men.

B. Running Gear Maintenance - Brake Adjustment
When resetting brakes, brake rams should be 1- 2
from end of stroke before brake shoes tighten on hub.
It is important that operators develop a schedule for periodic cleaning, inspection, adjustment and lubrication of brake components.
This will provide the prevention rather than cure of brake problems. Adjustment of brakes should be carried out as frequently as
required, in order to maintain the original safety standard.
Slack adjuster travel and uniform lining clearance must be maintained. At regular intervals, brake drums should be removed and linings checked for wear. The linings must not be
allowed to wear down beyond the wear line, or to the rivets. After fitting new or re-lined shoes always fit new return
springs. Each time the hubs are removed for brake inspection.
Check the following parts for wear:1. All hub components.
2. Grease seals. (It is recommended that new seals are fitted)
3. Bearing cups, cones & rollers.
4. Brake anchor pins and location holes.
5. Cam rollers and retaining pins.
6. Wheel studs and nuts.
7. Check brake drum for cracks, scoring or any form of deterioration.
Prior to re-assembly, the following parts should be coated with Copper slip or equivalent product:
1. Cam roller location diameters and journals.
2. Anchor pin location holes in brake shoes.
3. Brake Anchor Brackets (spiders) camshaft bores.
NOTE: Brake linings should be replaced as a complete set.

Once the new linings have been fitted, braking performance will be reduced until the new linings have been
bedded in. This can take up to 1000km, depending on operating conditions. Therefore it is recommeded
that linings are replaced well before critical brake inspections such as MOT tests etc.
Check with the manufacturer of your slack adjusters for any adjustment that it requires.
NOTE: Brakes should be adjusted by a competent person. Please consult your dealer or the manufacturer before
adjustment.

Important Tyre Information

1. Tyre pressures are very important and often overlooked. A couple of minutes spent checking them could save you
money, correct pressures are related to loads, speeds and vehicle handling and are vital for maximum safety,
braking, grip & tyre life.
2. Under Inflation: Causes excessive flexing and deterioration of the casing and also rapid wear of the tread
shoulders. Your tanker will have excessive stability problems on undulating ground if one tyre is under nflated on
one side.
3. Over Inflation: Results in a reduced area of contact with the road and greater wear on the tread centre which
makes your tyres more susceptible to impact damage.
4. A reliable and accurate pressure gauge should be used when the tyres are cold as there is an increase in
pressure when the tyres have warmed up.
5. Remember a punctured tyre only needs to travel a very short distance to become worthless and is not
covered under guarantee by either the tyre manufacturer or tanker manufacturer.
6. Check the side of the tyre for the correct pressure for your tyre.
Wheel Fastening
It is vital that operators and manufacturers ensure that the correct type of wheel cones and nuts are fitted to
specified bolts, before torqing to full setting.
Mating surfaces between Hubs and Wheel Rims should be primer painted only. Thick gloss will result in loss of
torque.

Servicing the Axle

Service intervals depend on operating conditions and are best decided by the Operators Fleet Engineer, having considered the following guide lines.
On Initial Receipt
Check all nuts, etc. for recommended torque. It is strongly recommended that wheel nut torque is checked every 7
days or 1000 km, whichever is the sooner.
First 300 miles (500 km)
a)
Check all wheel nuts daily for first week, due to seating effects.
b)
It is suggested that the hubs are checked for end-float, again due to seating effects.
c)
Lubricate all grease points, using Lithium soap-based EP2 grease.
At 3,000 miles (5,000 km)
a)
Check same as first 300 miles (500 km).
b)
Check wear pattern of brake linings, if not satisfactory, make correct adjustment.
c)
Check hubs for end-float. Reset adjustment nut if necessary.
At 10,000 miles (15,000 km) and every 10,000 miles thereafter
a)
Lubricate all grease points.
b)
Check hubs for bearing end-float. Adjust as necessary.
c)
Lubricate slack adjusters.
d)
Check brake linings for wear.
At 30,000 miles (50,000 km) and every 30,000 miles thereafter
a)
Remove hubs, check brake linings for wear, check anchor pins for sticking (remove and
b)
Re-grease if necessary), check camshafts for sticking.
c)
Completely clean out grease from hub.
d)
Re-pack using fresh grease.
e)
Check grease seals for signs of wear, replace if necessary.
f)
Re-set bearing adjustment nuts to give bearing end-float.
Bearings
The bearings used in MAJOR axles are of the finest materials, and produced to exacting standards. They are selected to give the user considerable service life. To protect this longevity, the following procedure is recommended when
servicing is required:a)
Immerse cups and cones in a suitable cleaning solution. After soaking, agitate bearings around in fluid to

flush out any old residue grease. Never spin a bearing; this could cause the rollers to skid, thus damaging the

highly finished internal surfaces of the bearing.
b)
When clean, thoroughly drain and dry, preferably in warm air at around 65 - 80C.
c)
The bearing must be now checked for any signs of corrosion, discolouring, pitting or flaking. Should there be

any doubts as to the condition of the bearing, replacement is strongly advised.
d)
If the bearing is to be refitted immediately, ensure the rollers are fully pre-packed with Lubricant (see recom

mended lubricants) before fitment. Alternatively, immerse the bearing in rust-preventative oil, wrap in wax

paper, and box for storage.
Note: - If sealed for life bearings (UNIPAC) are fitted, do not tamper with or attempt to service. Any tampering with the
bearing may drastically reduce the service life of the bearing and hubs, as well as invalidate the warranty. The only
action required for sealed for life bearings is the addition of anti fretting lubricant onto the spindle prior to any reassembly. MAJOR recommend Optimol White T, or Copper slip as an alternative.

It is important not to overfill the hub with grease!
I.E.
Hub: - 400 grams
Hub Cap: - 200 grams
NOTE: Greasing at high pressure may cause damage
to the seals
End Float
All MAJOR Drum Braked axles are fitted with two rows of tapered roller bearings. To protect normal bearing life, these
bearings must not be subjected to preload during assembly and service. End float of between 0.05 and 0.15 mm is
therefore recommended. The correct method of setting end float is as follows:1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Spin wheel and tighten Adjusting Nut until resistance is observed.

Back off Adjusting Nut 2 to 3 flats.
Assemble Lock Washer onto spindle, engaging hole over dowel.
Assemble Lock Nut and torque to 373 N.m. or 275 lb.Ft.
Check free rotation of wheel.
D Standard Tanker Suspension Unit

The standard tanker suspension unit uses a combination of rubber buffers & compression springs as indicated A.
The Tensioning bolts B are located either side of the drawbar & should be equally tightened to lightly compress the
buffer when the tanker is empty.
An indication of correct compression is when the bolts cannot be turned by hand without compressing the rubber
excessively.

NOTE: Before starting the Rotary blades vacuum pump make sure that the P.T.O. shaft turns freely and that the
direction of rotation is the same as the one indicated by the arrow.
Never turn the rotary blades vacuum pump in the direction of rotation opposite to the one for which it has been prepared (indicated by the arrow) as this could damage some components as well as prevent the operation of the pump.
Setting up the Lubrication System
Three different types of lubrication have been developed for the Rotary blades vacuum pump (see Figure 3).
a. Normal Lubrication:
Lubrication occurs during the intake phase only. The vacuum created in the Rotary blades vacuum pump sucks oil
from the tank. In the compression phase lubrication occurs with the residue of oil from the preceding phase. Normal
lubrication is available only for models MEC 1000 and MEC 1600 that are manufactured with only this type of lubrication.
b. Forced Lubrication:
Lubrication occurs in both the intake phase and the compression phase through a gear pump placed at the back and
actuated by the rotor shaft. The gear pump sucks oil from the tank and sends it to the manually adjusted metering tap.
Excess oil returns to the tank through a tube connecting the tap to the tank. Forced lubrication is available as standard feature on models MEC, STAR, AGRI.
c. Automatic Lubrication
With this system lubrication occurs in both the intake phase and the compression phase by means of a piston metering pump with adjustable flow rate placed at the back and actuated by the rotor. The oil is injected directly into the
Rotary blades vacuum pump,eliminating manual adjustment and saving a considerable amount of oil. Automatic lubrication is supplied, on request, on models MEC, STAR, AGRI.
Oil to Use:
The Rotary blades vacuum pump are supplied without lubritication oil in the oil tank. BPP suggest to use Battioni
Pagani vacuum pump oil for internal lubrification. It gives
- Excellent resistance to oxidation
- Strong anti-rust property
- Excellent anti foam power
- Working temperature from -5 C to 160 C
IF VACUUM PUMP OIL IS NO T AVAILABLE, USE ONLY NEW MINERAL OIL MEETING ISO VG 100 (SAE 30)
25
Do NOT use the folllowing oils:

Transmission oil - used oil - hydraulic oil - vegetable oil - oil for gears - oil for brakes
You must use only new oil
All M-MA-K-KA versions (with gearbox) are equipped with oil into the gearbox. If you have to change the oil use only
ISO VG 460.
Oil Levels:
SERIES MEC: For internal lubrication, the minimum oil level is indicated by the notch at the lower end of the level rod
(see Figure 4) located on the manifold and consequently the maximum level will be reached when the tank is full.
SERIES STAR/V, AGRI/V: For internal lubrication, the minimum oil level is indicated by the total length of the plug
with level rod (see Figure 5) situated in the back tank and the maximum level will be reached with a full tank.
SERIES STAR/F, AGRI/F: For internal lubrication, the minimum oil level is indicated by the lower notch on the indicator placed at the side of the external tank (see Figure 6) and the maximum level will be reached with a full tank.
Oil Tank Capacities:
PTO Versions: the gearbox has an oil loading plug at

the top of the gearbox and an oil level plug (see Figure
7), placed on the side of the gearbox to allow the level to
be checked To ensure correct lubrication, the oil should
always be visible in the oil level.
26
Quantity of Lubrication Oil

When the Rotary blades vacuum pump is running, check that the quantity of oil indicated in Table 4 is dripping from
the special regulator tap. These quantities are valid for both Forced and Automatic Lubrication. When necessary, add
only unused clean oil to the tank.
PTO Versions: make the first oil change in the gearbox after approx. 100 working hours and subsequent changes approx. every 300 working hours.
Adjusting the Lubricating Oil

To adjust the dripping of oil in the Rotary blades vacuum pump with forced lubrication, turn the regulator ring nut A
(see Figure 8) after loosening ring nut B. Tighten ring nut B again when adjustment has been completed.
The adjustment of oil delivery, in automatic lubrication, is carried out at our factory during final testing of the Rotary
blades vacuum pump. If, for any reason, a different setting is required proceed as follows: remove pin cover B (see
Figure 9), loosen lock nut C and then turn regulator pin A. By rotating clockwise lower oil delivery is obtained (-),
and by rotating anticlockwise higher oil delivery is obtained (+). When adjustment has been completed tighten lock nut
C and screw cover.

Overpressure and Vacuum Adjustment Valves:

The following diagram describes the valves as series (O), on demand (X) and not available (-) for each model of
rotary blades vacuum pump.
ATTENTION: the installation must be always equipped

with depression valve (set at 0,80 bar) and with overpressure valve (set at 1 bar).
Pressure: the maximum allowed pressure is 2,5 absolute bar (1,5 relative bar). In order to avoid exceeding
this value or to obtain a lower max pressure, an overpressure valve, C, must be applied that is of a size
capable of discharging the excess air delivery.
Vacuum: too high a vacuum may cause ovality and
waviness of the body or breaking of the blades.
It is therefore advisable to use a vacuum regulator
valve, D. These valves may be fitted on the manifold cover or on manifold of the Rotary blades vacuum
pump. Vacuum working degree is of 0,80 bar.
The regulation of the valves is done by acting on the
throttle placed on the valve same (overpressure valve)
or action on nut and locknut (vacuum adjustment
valve).
Testing and Running the Pump

In order to test the Rotary blades vacuum pump check the preceding points, using a workbench if necessary.
Make sure that the P.T.O. shaft turns freely and that the direction of rotation is the same as the one indicated by the
arrow.
If operation of the pump is checked without it being connected to the suction/delivery tubes there will be danger to
operators hands due to access to the inside of the discharge elbow. In this situation there is also the danger that
foreign bodies will be sucked into the machine.
Check that the position of the handle is correct and test that the Rotary blades vacuum pump exhausts or compresses.
The running in period foreseen for a rotary blades pump is of 30 of effective working. During that period the working
parameters must be reduced of 20%.
28
Maintenance Inspections, Checks, Repairs and Technical Details

Warning:
When carrying out maintenance operations, inspections, checks or repairs it is advisable to wear the individual protective devices listed in this manual.
All maintenance operations, inspections, checks and repairs must be carried out with the greatest care and with the
Rotary blades vacuum pump off and the P.T.O. disconnected.
Cleaning the Pump:
If slurry enters the Rotary blades vacuum pump, the inside of the body must be washed immediately, by making it
suck in diesel or fuel oil through the discharge elbow with the Rotary blades vacuum pump in compression phase. After this operation make it suck in oil. The same operation should be carried out when the Rotary blades vacuum pump
has to remain inactive for a long time. In this case, disconnect the suction and delivery tube connected to the valves
and hermetically seal the manifold cover because the gasses that form inside the tank would pass into the Rotary
blades vacuum pump and cause the inside of the body to rust and this in turn could cause the blades to break when
the system is re-started. In order to avoid rust formation, do not use water. If the body is washed after it is disassembled, it is advisable to carry out a preliminary wash with detergents (e.g. thinners) before carrying out the above
operation.
Wash the oil tank at least once a year. Remove the manifold, and then wash it using solvents.
Wash and clean the valves at least once a month. Remove the valves, then wash them with water or, if necessary,
non-corrosive detergents.
Checking the Valves: Regularly check that all the valves, for both overflow and pressure/vacuum, are still working
efficiently.
Blade Information
Three material type of blades are fitted on Rotary blades vacuum pump. The following Tabella 8 describes what kind
of material is fitted for each series.
Standard blades are suitable for no-strong uses, for short and not frequent periods. Special blades are made of a
special material suitable for strong uses and for Rotary blades vacuum pump used in agricultural field.
These blades offer an excellent resistance to wear and mechanical and thermical stress. These are suitable for more
frequent uses and to suck thick sewages. They are recommended for installation with frequent uses even during the
same day.
Apart from normal wear, it may be necessary to replace the blades following incorrect use of the Rotary blades
vacuum pump. The most frequent causes come from heat, lack of lubrication, entrance of sewage, high pressure or
vacuum, formation of rust inside the body due to prolonged inactivity.
With the heat too high pallets stretch to touch the plate front and rear, this causes the breakdown of the pallets.
Lack of lubrication means the blades are completely dry like the inside of the pump. This increases their fragility and
causes them to break lengthways. The same type of breakage can be caused by entrance of sewage or by a too high
working pressure. A too high vacuum causes the blades to beat against the cylinder with consequent damage to the
outside of the blades. Moreover, the lining becomes wavy.
29
Inspecting the Blades

To check the state of wear of the blades in the Rotary blades vacuum pump
proceed as follows:

Remove the threaded inspection plug;

Rotate the rotor until a blades lines up with the inspection hole;

Compare the height of the blades with the reference ring on the rotor;

Replace the entire set of blades when the height is less than the
reference ring on the rotor.

Bearing failure
Overheating due to lack of end float.

Forcible assembly.
Incorrect end float
Corrosion
Water, acid and corrosive materials formed by deterioration of lubricant, will produce a
reddish-brown coating and small etched holes over outer and exposed surfaces of race. Corrosive oxides also act as a lapping agent.
Brinelling is caused by improper assembly or removal, usually hammering with off-centre
blows. Use tubes, preferably under a press or extractor.
Fatigue
Shaft fits
All bearings are subject to fatigue and must be replaced eventually. Your own operating
experience will dictate mileage replacement of bearings showing only normal wear.
Excessive looseness under load is very objectionable because it produces a creeping or
slipping of the inner ring on the rotating shaft. This causes the surface metal of the shafts to
scrub or wear off.
When play or looseness even 0.0025 mm exists between the bearing and shaft, there is a
very powerful force tending to rotate the inner race on the shaft.
The brakes dont function or make

noise
Brake lining has worn out. Replace the brake lining.

Wheel bearing is adjusted incorrectly Adjust the wheel bearing.
