1.3 OPERATIONAL SAFETY ISSUESCONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ DE FONCTIONNEMENT

Your dynamometer comes standard with “Drop-In” style Restraints. One is for the left wheeland the other for the right wheel. The “Drop-In” style restraints are for ASM 50/15 and ASM25/25 testing ONLY. The maximum speed for the “Drop-In” style restraints are 25 MPH. Priorto performing an ASM 50/15 or ASM 25/25 test, ensure the “Drop-IN” style restraints areproperly positioned and rubber wheel chocks are placed in the appropriate places of the non-drive axle.

For ALL other types of testing, use chains, straps, Ratchet binders or strap ratchet binders ofsuitable size with floor anchors and wheel chocks to safely perform testing. Be careful not over-tension the chains or straps. All of these safety devices should be used when testing a vehicle.The above items are not supplied by Mustang Dynamometer. We recommend a minimum of3/8” diameter chain with 3/8” Ratchet binders. For front wheel drive vehicles, two chains andbinders should be used to restrain the front axle and a minimum of one chain/binder for the rearaxle. For rear wheel drive vehicles, 2 chains/binders should be used to secure the rear axle.Wheel chocks should be used on the non-drive axle for all testing types.

2.3 LUBRICATION

CAUTION

Page 19: Obd Dyne Manual

MUSTANG DYNAMOMETER

MODEL MD-OBD-DYNE MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE - 19 -

Bearings and couplings must be lubricated withrecommended lubricants. Lubricants must be fresh andfree from contamination. Failure to lubricate or to useincorrect or contaminated lubricants will result in reducedlife expectancy and/or damage to bearings and couplings.

Too much grease can change parasitic losses of thedynamometer and will cause overheating of roll and PAUbearings in high-speed operation of the dynamometer.

ATTENTION

Les paliers et les accouplements doivent être lubrifiés avec deslubrifiants recommandés. Les lubrifiants doivent être frais et non pollués.Ne pas lubrifier ou bien utiliser du lubrifiant incorrect ou pollué résulte enune durée de vie réduite ou en dégâts des paliers et des accouplements.

Trop de graisse peut modifier les pertes parasites dudynamomètre et causer une surchauffe des paliers derouleau et de PAU lors du fonctionnement à haute vitessedu dynamomètre.

Adequate lubrication is essential for satisfactory operation of the dynamometer. Lubrication ofthe dynamometer pillow block bearings, couplings, and PAU should be done as a part of aplanned maintenance schedule. The recommended lubrication intervals in the PreventiveMaintenance Time Table should be used as a guide to establish this schedule. These intervalsare based on 24 hours of actual machine usage per week. For extreme or unusual operatingconditions, lubricate more often. Even if the dynamometer is used less than 24 hours per week,the lubrication schedule should be followed in order to purge the system of potentialcontaminants.

2.3.1 LUBRICATE PILLOW BLOCK BEARINGS

Remove the plug or temperature probe and replace it with a zerk fitting.

Using a hand pump grease gun filled with (Exxon) Andok C grease, insert the gun into thefitting and add three grams of grease while rotating the dynamometer rolls by hand. Experimentwith your particular grease gun to determine how many pumps equate to three grams of grease.It should be roughly equivalent to three pumps using a normal grease gun.

Remove the zerk fitting and carefully replace the plug or temperature probe.

Repeat for each of the 10 pillow block bearings on the dynamometer.

When finished with greasing all the pillow block bearings, run the dynamometer with a vehicleproperly restrained at approximately 20 mph for 15 minutes to evenly distribute the grease.

Run warm-up, parasitic, and coastdown tests.

Page 20: Obd Dyne Manual

MUSTANG DYNAMOMETER

MODEL MD-OBD-DYNE MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE - 20 -

2.3.2 LUBRICATE COUPLINGS

Remove the two (2) grease plugs from the coupling sleeves and insert grease fitting into one ofthe holes.

Using a hand pump grease gun filled with Mobilith AW 2 grease, insert the gun into the greasefitting and pump the handle until grease comes out of the other hole.

Replace both grease plugs.

Tighten all plugs until they are snug and are approximately 1/16-inch above the surface - DONOT OVER-TIGHTEN THE PLUGS. The plugs should not be flush with the coupling sleeves.If the plug falls below the surface of the coupling sleeve, remove it, wrap the threads withTeflon tape, and reinstall.

Remove excess grease.

2.3.3 LUBRICATE PAUThe zerk fitting is located on the bottom of the stator frame. Wipe off any dirt or othercontaminates that may be on the grease fitting.

Using a hand pump grease gun filled with Mobilith AW 2 grease, insert the gun into the fittingand add twenty (20) grams of grease while rotating the PAU by hand. Experiment with yourparticular grease gun to determine how many pumps equate to twenty grams of grease. It shouldbe roughly equivalent to twenty pumps using a normal grease gun.

2.3.4 LUBRICATE MOTOR

Wipe off any dirt or other contaminates that may be on the grease fitting.

Using a hand pump grease gun filled with Mobilith AW 2 grease, insert the gun into the fittingand add eight grams of grease while rotating the motor by hand. Experiment with yourparticular grease gun to determine how many pumps equate to eight grams of grease. It shouldbe roughly equivalent to eight pumps using a normal grease gun.

PAU ALIGNMENT

Verify the horizontal alignment of the PAU to the rolls using a small level. Place the level flaton top of the inertia weight and on top of rolls #3 and #4. Note the position of the bubble on thelevel. The bubble on the level should be in the same position for all three locations. If thealignment is not level then shim the PAU or roll as necessary by placing shim stock under theroll or PAU bearings.

Refer to Figure 3.4 and verify the alignment of the PAU to the rolls by placing a square betweenthe face of the inertia weight and roll #4. Visually inspect the alignment. If the PAU is notsquare loosen the jam nuts and use the bearing stop screws on the PAU bearings to set thesquare flat to the PAU.

Recheck the PAU alignment using the square. Realign if necessary.

3.2.10 PAU GROUND SHORT CHECK/REPAIR

The twelve PAU Coils, designated 1N through 12S, are wired in series as shown in the wiringdiagram in Figure 3.15. Shorts to ground can be due to a faulty coil, jumper wire, or terminalblock in the PAU.

To find a shorted coil, disconnect the PAU from the power supply.

Using an ohmmeter, check the PAU coils for shorts to ground at the PAU cable connector.Resistance should be at least one Megohm.

If a shorted coil is suspected, systematically check half of the coils at a time as follows:

Remove the blue lead of coil 7N to divide the coils into two groups of six, 1N through 6S, and 7Nthrough 12S.

Connect one lead of the ohmmeter to the PAU ground and the other lead to the first group of sixcoils and then to the other group of coils to determine which group of six coils has the short.

Divide the shorted group into two groups of three coils each and use the ohmmeter to check whichgroup has the short. Keep separating and isolating coils until the short is located.

If the short is in a coil, disconnect both leads of the coil from the terminal block and install ajumper wire across the terminals. Up to three coils can be disconnected without adverselyaffecting PAU performance.

If the short is in the terminal block, replace the terminal block.
