1.2 INTRODUCTION

The basic element of the OPEC method of recovering oil from the surface of water is a specially manufactured fibrillated polypropylene yarn which is woven and sewn into flat section continuous lengths which form the OPEC Oil Mop. This latest type of mop is the result of research and development by the Company since the 1970’s. The application of the mop principle is mainly used for recovering oil from the surface of water in a multitude of industrial and emergency situations. The principle of the hydrophobic/oleophillic properties of polypropylene is now an established fact and these properties have been exploited to the full in the latest developments from the OPEC stable. The ‘E’ Series oil recovery systems utilise a third generation mop drive/oil extraction unit combined with the latest developments in continuous oil mops coupled with exclusive well developed accessories all of which contribute to providing a safe, efficient, reliable and cost effective installation.

The CONTINUOUS MOP is constructed from woven packs of polypropylene fibres continuously sewn on to a central load carrying polypropylene tape. The fibre packs are produced by a weaving and slitting process which results in a mop with single ended fibres which eliminates the problems of debris becoming caught up or snagging during operation. The manufacturing process locks in the fibres which ensure that they cannot be pulled out during operation, except with extreme difficulty. There are different sizes and grades of mop to suit different duties and types of oil. One of the features of the CMF type mops is the ease of joining the lengths into a continuous loop of any desired length.

The MOP DRIVE/OIL EXTRACTOR units perform two functions, one is to propel the continuous loop of mop along the water surface at the most efficient speed to enable it to absorb oil efficiently, and secondly the drive rollers are coated with an elastomer which squeezes the mop sufficiently to extract the absorbed oil without causing wear or damage to the mop fibres. The units are designed for ease of operation and maintenance and the loops of mop can be fitted to the machine in the ready joined condition.

Vertical GUIDE ROLLERS or FLOATING PULLEYS may be used to direct the mop where desired on the surface of the water depending on the type of installation, in some cases it may not be necessary or practical to use pulleys or rollers in which case the mop is allowed to fall vertically on to the water surface. In common with all the latest OPEC Equipment the

Page

mops can be fitted to the rollers and pulleys in the ready joined condition. The ‘HV’ unit is designed to operate with the mop deployed vertically without the use of guides or pulleys etc. However these may be used in exceptional cases should conditions or circumstances so dictate.

The ‘E’ Series and HV mop drive/oil extraction units have been designed with SIMPLICITY in mind.

They are:

• Simple to use. • Simple to install. • Simple to maintain.

They will give many hours trouble free service but in return require a basic amount of maintenance which amounts to no more than cleaning and checking. We strongly recommend that the procedures laid out in this operator’s manual are closely followed and this will ensure the systems operate trouble free.

1.3 TYPES OF MACHINE 1.3.1 E-SERIES LAC TYPE-III The equipment is a mop drive/oil extraction unit which comprises of a main unit which incorporates a continuously revolving mop. It is built around 3x 6mm stainless steel (304) plates which act as the structure to which all other components are assembled.

There is a speed reduction gearbox which is assembled on the outside of the main plate and which is driven directly by an electric motor. The main shaft is fitted into the gearbox sleeve and a project into the inside of the main frame, this shaft carries a drive gear and the upper main roller.

The lower main roller is carried in two self lubricating bearings which are integral with the modified carrying arms, these are in turn carried in mating sockets attached to a pivoting shaft allowing the lower roller to move relative to the upper one. This carrier shaft is tensioned against the upper roller buy a bonded ‘rubber in compression’ unit which may be released by a toggle lever when the rollers need parting for inspection or threading the mops. The pressure applied may be adjusted within limits by a threaded rod on the toggle lever. The lower roller shaft is carried in simple replaceable nylon bushes.

There is a large diameter, shaped, plastic guide roller carried on a stainless steel shaft which is positioned at the upper front of the main machine and this guides the mop on to the rollers in the correct position, also carried on the shaft is a drip tray which prevents oil and debris which may fall from the incoming mop onto the outgoing run of the mop.

The complete machine is protected from the weather by an all-over stainless steel cover which pivots from the rear plate and is attached with two toggle fasteners.

The CMF mop is of a flat configuration with the working strands of fibrillated polypropylene running transversely from a centre load bearing tape of close woven polypropylene thread which gives a very dense narrow fabric that is highly resistant to aggressive fluids, has high tensile strength with very low stretch, and has a specific gravity of around 0.9 which gives it positive buoyancy. (See Drawing. 14.01.09.117-Schematic)

1.3.2 E-SERIES B TYPE-III Is as above but utilizes a drive pulley and belt arrangement to enable the unit to be powered by a Diesel Engine. This model is commonly used for the rapid response mobile units which

Page

are trailer mounted. The benefit been that they can be powered anywhere without the need for an electricity supply.

1.3.3 OM TYPES These systems are intended to be suspended from deck cranes or similar and use virtually standard E-series units mounted to specially designed sumps which carry 2,4,6, or 8 units in a basically square configuration.

1.3.4 HV TYPE The basic unit is built around a folded steel chassis plate which forms the backbone of the unit and all other components are assembled on to this frame. There is the speed reduction gearbox which is mounted on the outside of the main plate and the drive motor is flange mounted directly coupled to the gearbox. The main shaft is fitted onto the gearbox sleeve and projects into the inside of the main frame through a heavy duty ball journal bearing. The lower drive roller is overhung on the main shaft and is secured to it by a long through bolt screwed into the inner end of the main shaft stub. Drive is transmitted to the roller via a dowel key which engages with a slot in the end of the roller sleeve. Because this roller is overhung the mop may be installed even when it has been pre-joined into a continuous loop. The upper squeeze roller is identical to the lower one and is carried on two heavy duty self aligning ball journal bearings. The two bearings are bolted to the upper part of the main plate. The rollers are fixed and the squeeze pressure is set when the machines are assembled. There are two adjustable arms fitted with tube rollers which guide the mop into and out of the main squeeze rollers, these arms may be positioned to give the most favourable spread of mop, there are two sets of hole positions depending on whether a wide or narrow spread of mop is required. A steel sump with drain stub is bolted to the bottom of the main frame. An overall stainless steel safety cover is provided for general protection which has to be positioned after the mop has been installed on to the rollers, the cover is secured with two plastic hand knobs. The cover also guides the mo onto the rollers when in operation. 1.3.5 ANCILLARY ITEMS GENERAL OPEC provides a range of accessories to enhance the performance and assist in the configuration of the mop skimmer systems. These accessories allow the mop to be positioned accurately as well as aid in the collection of the recovered oil.

FLOATING PULLEYS Used to determine the flow pattern of the mop in emergency spill operations for horizontal deployment of the mop. The pulley wheel is polypropylene. (See Drawing. 204.08.10.09.001)

• Are for use in emergency deployment installations • Minimise abrasion of the mop material • Ensure maximum efficiency of the equipment installed • Suitable for creating bund around on-site working equipment which can stand inside

the bund if required • Allow the mop configurations to be altered easily by the lengthening or shortening of

tension ropes

GUIDE ROLLERS There are two types of OPEC Guide Rollers:

Page

GR

- A fixed rotational float which moves the mop in a desired configuration, and be designed and constructed meet individual installation requirements. See Info sheet.

VFR (Variable Floating Roller)

- A float which encompasses a special frame that allows the roller to float on the interface of the water and oil regardless of the level of water present. This type of guide roller is used where the water level fluctuates so that the mop is always positioned correctly in the water. See Info sheet.

Guide Rollers:

• Are for fixed installations • Are produced with a variety of mounting arrangements • Are bespoke to the requirements of the installation • Minimise abrasion of the mop • Maximise efficiency of the mop skimmer systems

OUTRIGGER ARMS The outrigger arms are used for both fixed installations and emergency response to allow the mop to be vertically deployed. The main reason for this is to create a further 1 metre (approximately) of mop on the oil/water surface thus allowing for further adsorption of the floating oils or chemicals. This increases the efficiency and effectiveness of vertically deployed permanent mop skimmer installations.

Outrigger arms can be single or double roller and are usually 1 metre in length but can be made bespoke to your requirements. (See Drawing. 14.01.09.117-Schematic & Typical set up Drawings)

WIND CANOPIES: • Prevents oil from being blown outside of the polluted area • Can be easily removed for maintenance of the machine • Improves efficiency of oil retention of the mop • Is an added safety feature especially in hazardous environments • (See Drawing. 14.01.09.117-Schematic & Typical set up Drawings)

MOUNTING FRAMES Mounting Frames are exclusively for permanent installations to position the skimmer directly over the oil/water surface. The mounting frame’s main purpose is safety in maintenance. The ST Tanks are fitted with nylon wheels which allow the skimmer to be retracted from its deployment position via the mounting frame channels for general maintenance. (See Drawing. 14.01.09.117-Schematic)

RECOVERED OIL STORAGE TANKS These tanks are for use in permanent installations. Unlike the OPEC range of Flexitanks and Pillow Tanks which are for emergency response situations.

Tanks can be fabricated in mild steel, stainless or GRP and are made to order depending on the installation requirements.

They are designed to be incorporated below the mop skimmer machine so that the storage tank which can then be either pumped into road tankers or piped to another destination for the next stage of the recovery process.

HV STANDARD DEPLOYMENT FRAME Is designed to provide a means of supporting the ‘HV’ unit for use in a multitude of different situations. It may be used with horizontal legs facing forward for situations where the legs are long enough or wide enough to straddle the aperture through which the mop is deployed, these could include channels, drains, manholes, interceptor covers, etc. The angled support arm has been fixed at a height which allows for a recovered oil storage container up to the size of a standard 225 litre oil drum to be placed underneath the rear drain opening. It may also be deployed with the legs facing rearward and the machine cantilevered over a tank, interceptor, steam, separator, etc. In this case it is imperative that counterbalance weights are used either in the form of recovered oil container placed on a platform or pallet on the legs, or custom made weights which locate in holes in the ends of the legs. Whichever method is used it is ESSENTIAL that the counterweights, in whichever form is chosen, are placed on the stand legs BEFORE attaching the ‘HV’ unit. The ‘HV’ unit is attached to the stand by inserting the drain stub into the upper end of the angled cross pipe, there is a hole drilled in the top of the drain stub which mates with a locating bolt in the end of the cross pipe. Ensure that the bolt is screwed fully home so that it will prevent the unit from rotating. The cross pipe, which is also the oil drain, is mounted with a horizontal pivot and an adjusting screw, this enables the mop machine to be levelled up when the stand has been finally positioned. It is necessary to set the roller level so that when the machine is in operation the mop runs in the centre of the cover aperture. The stand may be used without horizontal legs by clamping the vertical member to horizontal pipes etc. such as standard handrails; this enables the mop to be deployed into interceptors, tanks, separators, which are normally guarded by handrails. HV Counterbalance Weights Are available which can be located at the ends of the horizontal legs which enable the machine to be cantilevered out on the opposite side to the legs. HV Pipe Clamps May be used to secure the vertical member of the deployment stand to horizontal rails such as those normally found around interceptors, pits, deep drains, separators, etc. This enables the unit to be used overhanging the water without using counterbalance weights and with the unit fully secured to fixed secured to fixed rails. HV Deployment Shafts Are available for deploying the ‘HV’ unit into underground interceptors or drains, either for permanent or temporary use, where wind or security etc., could be a problem. The shaft can be totally enclosed with the drain pipe existing through the side of the shaft into a suitable storage tank.

In most cases storage tanks can be used as the frame to mount the E-Series or HV mop skimmer systems in position soall recovered oil is gravity fed without the need for any pumps or additional pipe runs. The above illustrates the use of astorage tank as a mounting point for the system control panel for an oil recovery process.

AncillaryMounting Frames

Mounting Frames are exclusively for permanent installations to position the skimmer directly over the

oil/water surface. The mounting frame’s main purpose is safety in maintenance. The ST Tanks can be

It may be used with horizontal legs facing forward for situations where the legs are long enough or wide enough to straddle the aperture through which the mop is deployed, these could include channels, drains, manholes, interceptor covers, etc. The angled support arm has been fixed at a height which allows for a recovered oil storage container up to the size of a standard 225 litre oil drum to be placed underneath the rear drain opening. It may also be deployed with the legs facing rearward and the machine cantilevered over a tank, interceptor, steam, separator, etc. In this case it is imperative that counterbalance weights are used either in the form of recovered oil container placed on a platform or pallet on the legs, or custom made weights which locate in holes in the ends of the legs. The cross pipe, which is also the oil drain, is mounted with a horizontal pivot and an adjusting screw, this enables the mop machine to be levelled up when the stand has been finally positioned. It is necessary to set the roller level so that when the machine is in operation the mopruns in the centre of the cover aperture. The stand may be used without horizontal legs by clamping the vertical member to horizontal pipes etc. such as standardhandrails; this enables the mop to be deployed into interceptors, tanks, separators, which are normally guarded by handrails.

2.0 INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE

2.1 SAFETY NOTICE

All machines can be dangerous.

Consequently the following can cause serious harm:

• Removal of protection (e.g. safety covers) • Lack of inspection and maintenance • In proper use

The personnel must be informed of any danger caused by contact with:

• Rotating parts. • Live parts (see motor manufactures handbook for more details). • Hot surfaces. Check normal working conditions of the specific motor in the

manufacturers’ handbook.

The safety manager must ensure and guarantee that the machine is moved, installed, put into service, inspected, maintained and repaired only by qualified personnel, who should have:

• Specific technical training and experience. • Knowledge of technical standards and applicable laws. • Knowledge of general safety regulations as well as national, local and installation

regulations. • Ability to recognise and avoid all possible dangers.

Work on the machine should be carried out upon authorization of the safety manager after having ensured that:

• The motor has been disconnected from the power supply and that no parts of the motor including auxiliary parts are live.

• Discharge of the capacitor has been done for single phase motors. • The machine has completely stopped and there is no danger of accidental restarting.

If the machine is operating in a zoned environment, the unit, including the motor must be removed before maintenance work is carried out.

When moving the machine the correct site health and safety procedures should be followed. Under no circumstances should the machine be moved by personnel unaware of personal lifting procedures.

2.2 SPECIAL CONDITIONS OF SAFE USE IN A EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE

If the unit is to be installed in a zoned area then the mop must firstly be saturated with water. This can be done simply be placing the mop in a bucket or container of water and then installing the mop directly from the water onto the machine, thus ensuring it is saturated.

When equipment is supplied with an electric motor a path to earth is created in the normal way through wiring from the motor to the control box and on to earth. In the case that a hydraulic or air powered unit is supplied a path to earth is created by fitting a earthing strip to the supplied earth terminal (which should be located on the motor side of the safety cover fitting bolt) and then connecting to earth. All installation work should be carried out be trained operatives.

Page

27

2.3 POWER The machine is provided with a prime mover but, except for special cases, the control gear for electric motors, for instance, is the responsibility of the user.

IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTICE

These systems are designed to operated unattended for unlimited periods of time, it is therefore essential that they are provided with some form of overload protection, i.e. thermal overload in the case of a unit driven by an electric motor. Should the mop become tangled in an obstruction or get trapped for some reason then the overload protection device will prevent damage to the mop or main rollers. The setting of any overload device should be just above the normal system operating condition and not necessarily at full load condition of the prime mover. (for machines operating within a potentially explosive atmosphere the overload device and an emergency cut of switch fitted must be ATEX approved to operate within the specific zone).

ANY WARRANTY IS NULL AND VOID IF SUITABLE OVERLOAD PROTECTION HAS NOT BEEN FITTED AND PROPERLY SET AT THE TIME OF INSTALLATION.

2.4 POSITIONING The unit should be set up on a level foundation whether it is supplied as an independent unit or mounted on an OPEC oil water separation tank. The ancillaries such as guide pulleys, or guide rollers, or outrigger arms, should be assembled and fixed where required as shown in any installation drawings which may be provided.

2.5 PRIMING THE SEPARATOR (ONLY FOR UNITS INCLUDING ST5, ST25 & ST40) If the unit is supplied with an OPEC oil water separation tank it is necessary to set this up. Firstly, prime the front compartment with water up to a minimum depth of 150mm (to ensure the oil trap is sealed). Secondly, put the unit into operation until the oil level reaches and passes over the weir. Then stop the unit and it will be possible to determine the level of water in the front compartment, this should be approximately 5mm below the level of the water at the top of the weir, this water level can then be adjusted by means of the screwed adjustable collar fitted to the drain water pipe.

2.6 INSTALLATION & FITTING THE MOP 2.6.1 E SERIES To fit the mop into the ‘E’ Series mop drive/oil extraction unit when it is joined it is necessary to remove the safety cover (this is done by unfastening the toggle clips and hinging the cover towards the rear of the machine), open the main squeeze rollers by moving the tensioning toggle lever from the upright position until roller pressure is released. This opens up a gap which allows the mop to be positioned between the rollers. The mop should pass over the shaped inlet guide roller to the upper main roller, then around and between the rollers finally passing out from the machine back to the water surface. The debris/drip tray which pivots on the inlet guide roller shaft should rest on its bracket to prevent it from touching the lower roller.

IMPORTANT: WHEN FITTING THE MOP THE UNIT MUST BE TURNED OFF AND THE SAFETY COVER MUST BE REPLACED BEFORE THE UNIT IS OPERATED.

The mop may enter the machine over the inlet guide roller at any angle from horizontal to vertical fore and aft and up to approximately 30 either side of the longitudinal axis but this may be increased in certain conditions if required. (See Drawing Below Ref: mop inlet angles)

Page

28

If the mop is to be deployed around guide pulleys or rollers then the debris/drip tray should be fitted onto the inlet roller shaft in the forward position, and if the mop is being deployed vertically then the tray should be in the rearward position.

There is some adjustment for the squeeze pressure of the main rollers by adjusting the position of the toggle lever rod, however the degree of pressure is not critical and it should not be necessary to adjust the setting from that set in the factory.

There is a limit to the height above the oil/water surface at which at the machine will operate satisfactory and this is dependant on a number of factors including oil type and viscosity but as a guide the general maximum can be considered to be in the order of 40 meters.

In order to ensure long life from the mop it is essential that when installing the unit care is taken to make sure the mop does not rub on any rough surfaces such as brick or concrete, this would reduce the amount of oil recovered by wiping the oil from the mop as it passes over the obstruction. It is also desirable to ensure that there are no projections at water level which could snag the mop if it is moved around by water turbulence or wind. When contact is not avoidable a guide roller must be added to ensure mop is only in contact with a rotating surface.

The following section describes the mop in more details and suggests ways of repairing or altering the length of the mop during commissioning and routine maintenance procedures.

2.6.2 HV The unit is provided with two methods of mounting, one is a tapped hole in the top of the frame positioned over the centre of gravity and to which various types of bracket may be attached, the other is the drain stub of the sump which is designed to act not only as a drain connection but also as a support for the machine when plugged into a pipe stand. The mop guide tube rollers on the moveable arms should be positioned with as much spread as possible depending on whether the mop is passing through an aperture such as a man access or drain cover. If only a narrow spread is possible then the roller arms should be positioned in the upper mounting holes, the tube rollers can then be positioned at their narrowest and conversely if the widest spread is required then the roller arms should be positioned in the lower holes. If the unit is being set up on the standard deployment stand it should be carefully fitted by entering the drain stub into the upper end of the angled stand pipe and screwing the locating bolt. There is a limit to the height above the oil/water surface at which the machine will operate satisfactorily and this depends on a number of factors which are site dependant, they include viscosity of the product, type of product, situation of machine, whether it is affected by wind, etc., but as a general rule the unit should not be operated more than 5 metres above the liquid level without consulting the manufacturers. To fit the mop to the ‘HV’ Series mop drive/oil extraction unit it is ready joined loop it is necessary to remove the machine cover. This is removed by undoing the two knob screws and withdrawing the cover endways, it should be lifted slightly to clear the end flange of the sump. With the rollers now exposed the direction of rotation should be checked by flicking the control switch on and off, the mop should then be held, with the hands wide apart, diagonally across the ends of the roller so that it will feed in between the rollers when the control switch is again flicked on and off. GREAT CARE SHOULD BE EXERCISED TO KEEP HANDSCLEAR OF THE ROLLERS WHILE THEY BRIEFLY ROTATE. Once the mop is positioned between the rollers (it does not necessarily need to be at the mid point of the roller width) the cover MUST be replaced fully and then the machine may be started up, the guide strips on the cover apertures will guide the mop into the centre of the roller.

Page

29

In order to ensure long life from the mop it is essential that the unit is set up with the rollers as near to level as can be practically achieved, this ensures that the mop runs in the centre of the mop aperture and does not bear excessively on the wear strips as this would not only cause premature wear on the guide strips but also on the mop itself.

Care should be taken to make sure the mop does not rub on any rough surfaces such as brick or concrete, this would reduce the amount of oil recovered by wiping the oil from the mop as it passes over the obstruction. It is also desirable to ensure that there are no projections at water level which could snag the mop if it is moved around by water turbulence or wind. When contact is not avoidable a guide roller must be added to ensure mop is only in contact with a rotating surface.

2.7 JOINING THE MOP - METHOD 1 Refer to instruction sheet at the end of the section. 2.8 JOINING THE MOP - METHOD 2 Refer to instruction sheet at the end of the section. 2.9 JOINING THE MOP - METHOD 3 Refer to instruction sheet at the end of the section. IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTICE

These systems are designed to operated unattended for unlimited periods of time, it is therefore essential that they are provided with some form of overload protection, i.e. thermal overload in the case of a unit driven by an electric motor. Should the mop become tangled in an obstruction or get trapped for some reason then the overload protection device will prevent damage to the mop or main rollers. The setting of any overload device should be just above the normal system operating condition and not necessarily at full load condition of the prime mover. (for machines operating within a potentially explosive atmosphere the overload device and an emergency cut of switch fitted must be ATEX approved to operate within the specific zone).

ANY WARRANTY IS NULL AND VOID IF SUITABLE OVERLOAD PROTECTION HAS NOT BEEN FITTED AND PROPERLY SET AT THE TIME OF INSTALLATION.

CAUTION: The equipment should not be left to operate unattended if ambient temperatures fall below 0C and when there is a likelihood of the water surface freezing because if the mop becomes frozen into an ice covering the drive rollers would continue to turn and serious damage could occur to the drive rollers, mops, and guide rollers.

Its is important for units which are installed in standby situations, and where the water surface is normally clean and at ambient temperatures, that the power supplies are switched off when there is the possibility of air temperatures falling to, or below, freezing point. If this is the case, it is recommended that a frost thermostat be fitted into the control systems to isolate the power supplies automatically if and when ambient temperatures reach pre-selected levels.

IMPORTANT: When connecting the motor to the power supply the instructions and procedures stated in the motor handbook (See Appendix 1) must be strictly followed.

2.10 MAINTENANCE

The ‘E’ Series and HV oil recovery systems have been designed with simplicity of operation and maintenance as the main parameter, there is therefore, relatively little maintenance to be carried out. As all rubbing parts have been eliminated and all bearing surfaces are self lubricating, routine maintenance is mainly limited in inspections and cleaning.

2.10.1 REMOVAL OF THE SAFTY COVER E SERIES MKIII MACHINES This is done by releasing the two toggle fasteners, lifting the front of the cover and pivoting it rearwards over the back or the rear plate. This procedure will then allow access to all parts of the unit.

IMPORTANT: THE MACHINE SHOULD BE SWITCHED OFF AND THE POWER SUPPLY ISOLATED BEFORE REMOVING THE SAFETY COVER OR CARRYING OUT ANY WORK ON THE MACHINE. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES MUST THE MACHINE BE OPERATED WITHOUT THE SAFETY COVER IN PLACE AND FASTENED SECURELY USING BOTH TOGGLE FASTENERS.

WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU CONTACT OPEC LTD FOR ADVICE REGARDING THESE MATTERS.

HV MACHINES Removal of the main cover is accomplished by undoing the two knob screws and withdrawing the cover by sliding it endways away from he drive motor end, it should be lifted slightly to clear the end flange of the sump, if lifted too much it will not withdraw as the internal deflector plates will foul on the chassis end plate. If there is mop installed on the machine the mop must be fed under the cover bottom edges whilst withdrawing the cover 2.10.2 INSPECTION E SERIES MACHINES Inspection of MkIII ‘E’ Series machine should include the following:

• Gearbox condition, ensure there is no dust build up (see manufactures manual for full details).

• Motor condition (see manufactures manual for full details). • Condition of mop, visual checking for excess reduction in the surface area. Mop life

can reach 9 months when operated 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Note: Mop life is dependant on situational factors e.g. chemicals abrasion, UV and metal deposits.

• Conditions of rollers gears, alignment, apply a general purpose grease when required.

• Condition of roller covering, check for cuts, abrasions, and any undue wear. Check tightness of retaining bolts in upper rollers.

• Condition of scraper on lower roller. This scraper keeps the lower roller clear of any build up of oil when operating in viscous or emulsified oils and prevents any carry over on the outgoing run of the mop. The scraper enhances the efficiency of the unit and should therefore be in position at all times. It is removed by undoing the two hexagonal head M6 bolts which also retain the lower roller shaft bearing arms; the bolts are removed by using a 10mm combination wrench.

Page

31

• Freedom of movement of lower roller carrier shaft against tensioner. • Freedom of movement of tensioner toggle arm. If necessary a few drops of lubricating

oil should be put on to the pivot pin and screwed boss pivots. • Check for freedom of rotation of inlet roller and for any undue wear. The shaft, roller,

and tray assembly may be dismantled for cleaning or repositioning by simply removing the ‘R’ clip which retains the shaft. The nylon distance collars are to enable the inlet guide roller to be repositioned sideways if required in order to lead the mop on to the centre of the main squeeze roller. This should only be necessary if the mop is running to one side of the centre on the main roller which may occur if it approaches the guide roller at a relatively large angle from the side.

• Condition of all bearings, check for excessive wear and noise. • If fitted with a ST tank, clear the sludge as required.

IF THE UNIT IS OPERATING IN A ZONED AREA THEN IT IS NECESSARY TO CARRY OUT THE ABOVE VISUAL CHECKS ON A DAILY BASIS.

‘E’ Series mop drive/oil extraction units may be driven by many different types of power unit, it is therefore essential that the appropriate manufacturers’ handbook be consulted for specific instructions. This is also the case for the gearbox. (These are enclosed in the appendices).

HV MACHINES

• Inspection of a ‘HV’ Series machine should include the following: • Gearbox condition, ensure there is no dust build. • Motor condition (see manufactures manual for full details). • All nuts and bolts are tight. • Condition of mop, visual checking for excess reduction in the surface area. Mop life

can reach 9 months when operated 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Note: Mop life is dependant on situational factors e.g. chemicals abrasion, UV and metal deposits.

• Condition of rollers and alignment. • Condition of roller covering, check for cuts, abrasions, and any undue wear. • Check that the side roller arms are tight and in the correct position to give the

required spread to the mop and that the plastic roller tubes are free to rotate easily. If these tubes are found to be tight then they should be removed, the rods cleaned and oiled, and the tubes refitted. These rollers assist in keeping the mop running through the centre of the aperture in the cover, it is desirable therefore that they should rotate freely at all times.

• Ensure the machine is still set up level so that the mop runs easily in the centre of the apertures. The wear strips on each side of the cover should be checked for wear and replaced if necessary.

• The sump should be cleaned of any debris or solids which may block the outlet pipe. • The mounting bolt which will either be in the top plate if the unit is on a suspended

mounting, or in the drain stub if it is pipe mounted, should be checked for tightness. • Condition of all bearings, check for excessive wear and noise. • It is important that the main lower roller securing bolt is tightened to the correct torque

in order to prevent the lower roller from working loose during operation.

When reassembling a lower roller on to the main drive shaft the following procedure should be adopted: • Make sure all components are clean and free from dirt and swarf. • Lightly coat the stub shaft mating surfaces with grease as well as the bore hole. • Check the 3mm. drive pin is in position in the hole in the drive shaft flange. • Position the roller on to the main shaft spigot ensuring that the drive pin engages with

the slot in the roller end face.

Page

32

• Using engine lubricating oil smear the underside of the retaining bolt head as well as the end threads, position the end plate in the end of the roller, and screw in the retaining bolt. When finger tight check to make sure that the end plate and roller are correctly located.

• Using a torque wrench tighten the retaining bolt to a torque setting of 19Nm. (14lbs/ft – 2mKg).

ALWAYS REPLACE COVERS WHEN INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE HAVE BEEN COMPLETED: THE MOP IS NOT GUIDED UNLESS THE COVER IS IN PLACE.

4.6.2 Joining the Mop – Method 1

(Specially selected staples and hand stapler required).

Cut the mop to the required length allowing for about 3% initial stretch, use a large pair of scissors or

a sharp knife. Check to ensure that there are no twists in the run of the mop then strip back the fibre

packs on one side only of the centre tape at each end for a distance of about 120mm. Remove the

fibre packs from the upper side on one end and the underside of the other end (fig.C1).

Place the ends of the mop together so that the centre tapes overlap the amount that they have been

trimmed (Fig.C2) and then insert the staples according to the pattern shown in Fig.C3 starting with

those which are inserted lengthways at the ends of the tapes. These prevent the tape ends and fibre

packs from peeling back. The staples which are inserted transversely should be inserted evenly,

every other one being inserted from the opposite side. (Fig.C3). The staples should be checked to

ensure that each one has penetrated the mop and that the staple ends have turned over correctly.

Cut the mop to the required length allowing for about 3% initial stretch, use a large pair of scissors or

a sharp knife. Check to ensure that there are no twists in the run of the mop then strip back the fibre

on one side only of the centre tape at each end for a distance of about 60-70mm. Remove the fibre

packs from the upper side on one end and the underside on the other end. (Fig.S2).

Place the ends of the mop together so that the centre tapes overlap the amount that they have been

rimmed (Fig.S3) and sew the ends together firmly ensuring that the exposed ends of the fibre packs

are well secured by the sewing so they will not strip back in use, and that where the thread is stopped

off it is also secured firmly to prevent it from becoming undone. Position the sewing as shown for the

staples in Fig.S4.
