WARNINGS:
1. Unit produces severe vibration and contains rotating parts. Accidental start-up of unit could result in death
or serious injury. Turn off and lock-out system power before servicing.
2. When installing or maintaining this separator, shut off and lock out power before removing guards (base
door, cover, etc.). Follow all local and national electrical codes. Failure to comply could result in severe
personal injury or property damage.
3. Electrocution can occur if water contacts live electrical components. Shut off and lock out power before
maintenance or repairs. Failure to comply could result in severe personal injury or property damage.
4. Keep all doors and guards in place at all times to avoid exposure to parts rotating at high speeds. While
the power is on, severe injury can occur if hands or feet reach inside the unit.
5. To prevent possible shock, ground machine per local and national electrical codes. A qualified electrician
must perform all wiring. Failure to comply could result in severe personal injury or property damage.
6. Read and understand this manual in its entirety before installing or operating the machine. Installation,
adjustment, repair, and maintenance must be performed by qualified personnel. Do not perform any
service other than those contained in this manual unless you are qualified. Failure to follow safe
installation and servicing guidelines could result in severe personal injury or property damage.
7. Care should be taken when removing the lubricator from the machine as pressure up to 5 bar (75 PSI)
may be present. The switches should be turned off before the cartridge is carefully unscrewed from
the machine. Grease may be ejected from the cartridge if it is not empty.
8. Do not wear loose fitting clothes or articles. Items can get caught in moving parts and result in severe
personal injury.
9. When maintaining or adjusting eccentric weights, use extreme caution to correctly attach all keys,
retainers, and fasteners. Failure to lock weights securely in place can result in parts being thrown from
machine at high speed endangering personnel.
10. Do not start and stop your separator more than four times an hour on a continuous basis. Frequent
starting can cause heat buildup which will damage the motion generator. Contact your SWECO
representative if your process requires frequent starting and stopping.
11. If machine base is mounted in an elevated position, the base bottom must be guarded to protect from
vibrating pinch points. Failure to comply can result in risk of serious injury due to crushing can occur
12. Higher amplitudes occur during shut down and start-up of unit. Stand clear of unit and keep accessory
equipment away during these cycles.
13. Keep hands clear of pinch points. Failure to comply could result in severe personal injury.
14. If processing hazardous materials, check material safety data sheets (MSDS's) for hazard information and
follow necessary procedures prior to servicing equipment.
15. Units are to be lifted with shipping brackets intact. When lifting, be sure lifting device can handle the load.
Prior to lifting, make sure area is clear of obstacles or personnel and sufficient room is provided to
accommodate parts. Make certain load is balanced and stable. Always use trained personnel for lifting
and loading operations. Failure to comply could result in severe personal injury or property damage.
FOREWORD
General Safety Practices
(continued)
CAUTIONS:
1. Over center “Latch Type”clamp bands are NOT to be used on lower table joint. Unit frame stack could
come apart if not properly secured. Risk of serious injury due to crushing can occur.
2. Use caution when loosening clamp bands due to the bands being tensioned. Loosen bolts prior to
unlatching clamp band. Failure to comply can cause risk of hand injury.
3. Always tighten clamp ring before tightening center tie-down assembly. This will help assure proper vertical
location of screen center and help prevent premature screen failure.
4. This equipment must be installed, operated, and maintained by qualified personnel to avoid personal
injury or damage to property.
5. Securely tighten all nuts and bolts on the vibrating unit according to the instructions in this manual. Pay
special attention to the motor mounting bolts. If a motor (motion generator) vibrates loose, damage to the
power cord and to the structure may result as well as risk of personal injury.
6. Do not start motor before removing shipping brackets. Failure to remove shipping brackets before start-up
can cause damage to unit, motor, structure, and possible personal injury.
7. Inspect motor weight parts during maintenance. If any structural weakness appears, replace the part.
8. Motion generator (motor) power cord must be correctly installed into base junction box. Failure to adjust
cord length properly can cause cord breakage (if too short) or dangerous rubbing on vibrating parts (if too
long).
9. Screens are fragile, Handle them carefully. Never place tools or parts on the screen or damage to the
screen may occur. As screen life is dependent on a wide variety of issues like mesh size, flow rate,
material properties, vibration level, maintenance, etc., we cannot guarantee how long a screen will last.
Screens should be frequently inspected to check for wear or damage. Note that if screens continue to
vibrate for hours after initial failure (tearing), wire segments may break loose from the mesh and fall into
the screened product.
10. Provide proper guarding for personnel against harm from dust, fumes, or hazardous chemicals. Failure to
comply could result in personal injury.
11. All persons operating the equipment and working in general area should wear standard safety equipment
(i.e. safety glasses, ear protection, steel-toed boots) to prevent risk of personal injury. All safety items
must conform to local safety requirements.
12. If noise level exceeds 70dB in your environment, hearing protection is required to avoid impairment or loss
of hearing.
13. Never operate with missing or worn parts. Failure to comply could result in personal injury or property
damage.
14. At no time should the separator be operated without frames. This can cause the table to disengage from
the support springs which can cause permanent damage to the table gussets, motor cord, springs, spools,
and lube lines as well as risk of personal injury.
TM
15. When starting machine after an extended shutdown period, make sure to set all TechLube switches
TM
“ON”and to the correct settings. Failure to activate TechLube will prevent motion generator from being
lubricated and will cause damage to the bearings.
NOTES:
1. WARNING and CAUTION labels have been placed on this separator where needed. If these labels
become illegible, consult your SWECO Representative for replacement of labels.
TM
2. If removing motion generator for an extended period of time (exceeding three weeks) set the TechLube
switches to the “OFF”position.
3. The previous SWECO U.S. round separator models used U.S. standard hardware. The MX design uses
metric hardware in the basic drive.
4. Any motor that has been opened will not be replaced under warranty and any repair performed by the
customer or outside will void warranty.
5. Use only authentic SWECO aftermarket parts to assure proper component fit and function.

Receiving and Installation
NOTIFICATION OF DAMAGE
Check packing and machine for damage when the machine is delivered. Notify the carrier
and SWECO immediately of any damage to the machine. A relevant certificate from the
driver must be supplied. Inform all parties of any damage that becomes apparent when the
packing material is removed. Keep any damaged goods subject to examination.
STORAGE
UNIT: Equipment can be stored (upon arrival) in the shipping crate/pallet for a 12 to 24
month preservation period. Always store equipment so it is not exposed to dust, vibration,
or extreme weather conditions. If unit has been removed from its original crate/pallet, cover
with a tarpaulin during any preservation period.
MOTION GENERATOR: When storing a motion generator, SWECO recommends that the
motor shaft be turned by hand several rotations every six months of storage. SWECO
Motion Generator motors use a very high quality lubricant in the motor bearings to insure
proper operation and to insure long service life. These lubricants are designed to function
in many different types of operating environments. However, as with any grease lubricant,
settling can occur during long periods (+6 months) of the motor not being in operation. This
can leave the bearings without proper coating of lubrication and can cause premature
motor failure. If a motor has been in storage for an unknown period of time, it is
recommended that you return the motor to SWECO for inspection prior to starting up.
SCREENS: When screens are shipped loose, store screens in their cardboard container.
Horizontal or vertical stacking is permissible. Avoid mechanical damage. Always wash
screens prior to using.
SWECO 2-1
48 and 60 Round Separator Receiving and Installation
INSTALLATION OF UNIT
This section details the installation of the SWECO round separator. This equipment must
be installed, operated, and maintained by qualified personnel.
1. Remove unit from shipping container/pallet. Handle carefully to avoid damage to
exterior or internal components. Units are to be lifted using three (3) slings of adequate
length. One sling should be placed around each base leg with the three (3) opposite
ends collected on top of the separator and adequately secured to a forklift tine or crane
boom. Make certain load is balanced and stable. Always use trained personnel for
lifting and loading operations. Ensure lifting equipment is suitable for purpose and is
certified where necessary. Refer to sales drawing, specific to customer sales order, for
unit weight.
WARNING
Shipping brackets must be attached during lifting. Failure to comply could result in
severe personal injury or property damage.
Clamp rings are not designed to withstand the total machine weight and unit should
never be lifted from the top. Frames with lifting lugs (special order only) can be used to
lift frame stack-up but not total machine weight. Prior to lifting, make sure area is clear
of obstacles or personnel and sufficient room is provided to accommodate parts.
Failure to comply could result in severe personal injury or property damage.
2. Once unit is removed, check packing slip. Check that machine and parts are in good
condition. Verify what you ordered is what you have received. Contact SWECO or a
representative if anything is missing. The instruction manual included with unit and any
accessories should be kept with the unit.
3. Place unit on a solid level foundation. Operating the separator while placed on a pallet,
or similar, will greatly reduce the screening efficiency. There should be very little or no
vibration detectible on the base when the separator is in operation. The foundation
must be stiff enough to support twice the separator weight, thereby minimizing
transmitted vibration. Refer to sales drawing for static and dynamic loading. Any
questions use local or national codes as a guide.
2-2 SWECO
Receiving and Installation 48 and 60 Round Separator
WARNING
5. Provide sufficient space between feed source and screening surface for proper
material discharging.
6. The unit should be mounted as level as possible or will not operate properly. Level
separator using shims between base and foundation as required.
7. The base weldment contains six (6) mounting holes. Use these holes to mount and
secure the unit onto the solid level foundation.
8. Special shipping brackets are used to lock the vibrating assembly to the unit base
during shipping and should remain secured in position until the equipment is placed in
its final location. The three (3) brackets are located, equally spaced, between the
spring assemblies and must be removed after the unit has been installed, but prior to
connecting electrical power to the motion generator. After securing the separator at its
final destination, the red shipping brackets can be removed from the unit or rotated
180° around the stationary base mounting bolt and secured there for future use.
CAUTION
Shipping brackets must be removed prior to vibrator hook-up and prior to unit start-
up. Failure to comply can cause damage to the unit, motor, structure, and possible
personal injury.
TM
9. SWECO offers an automatic grease lubricator called the TechLube with pre-selected
TM
grease for optimum lubrication of the motion generator bearings. The TechLube
system is standard for SWECO U.S. 48 and 60 units but optional for
TM
SWECO Europe. If applicable, refer to TechLube manual following unit manual for
TM
instructions and specifications of the TechLube system.
SWECO 2-3
48 and 60 Round Separator Receiving and Installation
10. Install spout connectors (optional equipment). Spout connectors between all product
inlet (cover), product discharge (spouts), and material conveyors must be properly
positioned and flexible so as not to hinder the action of the separator. The connectors
should not be compressed and should be installed in a vertical position. Avoid over-
stretching of connectors. A guideline for connector length is 1.5 x diameter of inlet or
outlet.
CAUTION
Connectors are to be flexible enough so as not to hinder the motion of the separator.
Failure to comply can cause damage to connectors or material being processed.
11. Clamp rings are used to hold various sections of the separator in place. Check clamp
rings; they can slightly loosen during shipment. For clamp rings with 3/8" hardware,
check and retighten to 32 foot pounds (4 kg. m). For clamp rings with 1/2" hardware,
check and retighten to 40 foot pounds (6 kg. m). All clamp rings MUST be properly
installed and tight before beginning operation to prevent them from working loose and
causing damage to gasket, frame, or screen. Re-check torque after one hour of
operation.
CAUTION
Over center “Latch Type”clamp bands are NOT to be used on lower table joint. Unit
frame stack could come apart if not properly secured. Risk of serious injury due to
crushing can occur.
CAUTION
Use caution when loosening clamp bands due to the bands being tensioned. Loosen
bolts prior to unlatching clamp band. Failure to comply can cause risk of hand injury.

FEED SET-UP ADJUSTMENTS
The following sections discuss wet and dry feed flow and the set-up adjustments required
for improving product flow.
The material being screened, whether wet or dry, must be fed to the screen in a controlled
flow, perpendicular to the screen surface and at a constant, even rate of speed. Flow
control devices for both wet and dry screenings must be used to achieve these
characteristics.
Contact your SWECO Representative concerning the various flow control devices that are
available.
CAUTION
If processing hazardous materials, check material safety data sheets (MSDS’
s) for hazard
information and follow necessary procedures prior to servicing equipment.

VIBRATION AMPLITUDE
Horizontal and vertical amplitudes can be easily measured to evaluate and understand
separator performance. To analyze the motion of the separator, a vibration gauge sticker
(SWECO part #S48K02147) is provided to help measure vibration amplitude. This sticker
is attached to the outside frame diameter of the machine near the screen level. The
stationary gauge measures both horizontal and vertical motion independently.
To read the vibration amplitude, while the machine is running, observe where the
triangular lines cross. The number closest to the line crossing will be the vibration
amplitude in 1/16" increments. If an amplitude sticker is not available, use a felt tip marker
to make a dot on the frame. A ruler can then be used to measure the horizontal and
vertical amplitude on the motion.
Maximum amplitudes are based on motor speed. Check the nameplate of the vibrator
(motor) for speed (unless a speed control is used). Maximum vertical or horizontal
amplitudes are as follows and should NOT be exceeded:
1200 RPM –1/4" maximum
1500 RPM –3/16" maximum
1800 RPM –1/8" maximum
CAUTION
Do not exceed maximum amplitudes shown or damage to equipment can occur.
NOTE
Incorrect amplitude can lead to premature screen failure.

removing guards (base door, cover, etc.). Follow all local and national electrical
codes. Failure to comply could result in severe personal injury or property damage.
2. After all vibration has ended, remove hardware and bottom weight side access door
(see Figure 6-3, item #16) located on side of bottom weight guard to make adjustments
to the bottom force and lead angle.
3. Tie wraps are used to keep the fan weights in place during shipment; snip off and
discard before making any weight adjustments.
4. Locate bottom support plate. On this plate the slots are numbered every 15 degrees.
These numbers represent the lead angle setting in degrees. Figure 3-6 shows an
example of a 30° lead angle with both fan weights located six slots from the selected
lead angle. This is a “6-30-6”bottom weight setting.
5. Follow these procedures to make adjustments to the vibrating force or to the lead
angle:
To increase vertical vibrating force, lift and move both bottom fan weights closer
together the same number of slots from selected lead angle. Both weight plates
should be equally spaced (see notes).
To decrease vertical vibrating force, lift and move both bottom fan weights farther
away from selected lead angle the same number of slots. Both weight plates
should be equally spaced.
To adjust lead angle, lift and move both bottom fan weights to the right or to the left
(maintaining equal spacing or number of slots) of the selected lead angle.
NOTE
Before lifting weight handles, push handles inward to release lock tabs.
NOTE
The greater the distance between plate handles the smaller the applied force. The
smaller the distance between plate handles the greater the applied force.
WARNING
When maintaining or adjusting eccentric weights, use extreme caution to correctly
attach all keys, retainers, and fasteners. Failure to lock weights securely in place can
result in parts being thrown from machine at high speed endangering personnel.

Maintenance
This section discusses the steps to take in maintaining your SWECO separator parts. This
equipment must be installed, operated, and maintained by qualified personnel. Do not
perform maintenance or repairs to equipment while unit is in operation.
WARNING
When installing or maintaining this separator, shut off and lock out power prior to cleaning
and maintenance. Follow all local and national electrical codes. Electrocution can occur if
water contacts live electrical components. Failure to comply could result in severe
personal injury or property damage.
UNIT
Periodically, examine unit visually for signs of wear or damage. Repair/replace as
necessary.
Perform audible checks and investigate as necessary.
A complete and regular cleaning of the machine, accessory parts, and the workplace is
advisable to keep the machine safe and working to maximum efficiency. Periodic cleaning
of the separator will keep unit at top efficiency. Follow these procedures for dry or wet
cleaning of the unit.
General
1. Vacuum cleaning is preferred to brush cleaning or cleaning with air under pressure as it
decreases dust drift to other areas of the plant.
2. Brushes or vacuum cleaner fittings used for cleaning product contact surfaces should
not be used for cleaning non-product contact surfaces or for other uses which might
result in contamination. Such brushes and special fittings should be stored in enclosed
cabinet when not in use. (For protection and housekeeping considerations, such
cabinets preferably should be of non-wood construction and should have open mesh
metal shelving.)
3. Dry cleaning is always preferable to wet cleaning when possible.
SWECO 4-1
48 and 60 Round Separator Maintenance
Dry Cleaning
1. Completely dismantle and thoroughly vacuum or dry brush clean all product contact
surfaces of the sifter. Reassemble when finished and make every effort to keep all
parts dry.
2. Check sifter screen(s) for broken or displaced wires (threads) and for other openings
around the frame of the screen that might permit the passage of unsifted product.
Other parts of the sifter, including ball trays and balls, if used, also should be inspected
for condition. Any necessary repair or replacement should be made as soon as
possible.
3. Always remove the screen gasket and center tie-down (if applicable) and check for
damage or accumulations underneath the gaskets.
4. Flexible rubber or cloth connectors at the inlet and outlets of the sifter should be
thoroughly cleaned, following procedures recommended for the sifter. Connectors
should be closely examined for holes, cracks or other damage. (To facilitate removal
for cleaning, use of easily removable fastening devices is recommended.)
5. Thoroughly vacuum or dry brush clean all external parts of the sifter, including the sifter
frame and drive mechanism.
Wet Cleaning
1. Completely dismantle. Remove all loose dry product. Rinse all parts with clear water
and follow with a thorough hand brushing of all parts using a general purpose cleaner.
2. Rinse thoroughly to remove all cleaning solution or soil. It is recommended that hot
water (170° F (76.7° C) or above) be used for rinsing in order to sanitize the equipment
and to promote drying.
3. Always remove the screen gasket and center tie-down (if applicable) and check for
damage or accumulations underneath the gaskets.
4. Allow all parts to air dry completely prior to reassembly. Wet washing should be done
as frequently as necessary, and may be done after each use if the sifter is not being
used on a continuous basis.
5. After cleaning, drying and reassembly, all openings should be protected against
recontamination.
6. Wet cleaning is not recommended for cleaning the drive base of the unit which
contains the motor and electrical junction box. Spraying the motor with water is a
potential safety hazard and can lead to premature motor failure. If wet cleaning is
required for the processing frames, it will be necessary to disassemble the unit and wet
clean the processing frames separately from the drive base.
4-2 SWECO
Maintenance 48 and 60 Round Separator
SCREENS
Screens should be periodically inspected for blinding and cleaned as required. It is
recommended to wash the screens each time the separator is shut-down. Mild soap and
water is suggested for cleaning screens. Do not use pressure washer to clean screens or
damage to fine mesh screens can occur.
As screen life is dependent on a wide variety of issues like mesh size, flow rate, material
properties, vibration level, maintenance, etc., we cannot guarantee how long a screen will
last. Screens should be frequently inspected to check for wear or damage. Note that if
screens continue to vibrate for hours after initial failure (tearing), wire segments may break
loose from the mesh and fall into the screened product. If you need assistance in
determining a good cleaning method for your particular application, contact your SWECO
Representative.
WARNING
If processing hazardous materials, check material safety data sheets (MSDS’ s) for
hazard information and follow necessary procedures prior to servicing equipment.
CHANNEL GASKETS
Check screen gaskets to see that they are mounted correctly on the screen ring. Clean
gaskets with each screen change. Replace if there is evidence of cracking, breakage or
crimps. Do not over-stretch gaskets. Always store spare gaskets flat on a shelf, never on a
hook, and in a clean environment.
CAUTION
Use only SWECO channel gaskets to assure proper fit and function. Use of any other
gaskets can cause damage to the unit or improper functioning.
SWECO 4-3
48 and 60 Round Separator Maintenance
CLAMP RINGS
Clamp rings are used to secure the frames and should be seated onto the frames with a
hammer or rubber mallet before final torquing. Check clamp ring nuts and bolts making
sure they are tight. For clamp rings with 3/8" hardware, check and retighten to 32 foot
pounds (4 kg. m). For clamp rings with 1/2" hardware, check and retighten to 40 foot
pounds (6 kg. m). All clamp rings MUST be properly installed and tight before beginning
operation to prevent them from working loose and causing damage to gasket, frame, or
screen. A loose clamp ring can cause screen rotation that will lead to fatigue. Re-check
torque after one hour of operation.
CAUTION
Over center “Latch Type”clamp bands are NOT to be used on lower table joint. Unit
frame stack could come apart if not properly secured. Risk of serious injury due to
crushing can occur.
CAUTION
Use caution when loosening clamp bands due to the bands being tensioned. Loosen
bolts prior to unlatching clamp band. Failure to comply can cause risk of hand injury.
SPOUT CONNECTORS
Check systematically (after every maintenance operation) the condition and life time of
the spout connectors. Closely examine for holes, cracks, or damage and replace as
needed. The life time is estimated at 6 months for normal usage and the connectors are
recommended to be changed. Periodically inspect and thoroughly clean connectors.
CAUTION
Connectors are to be flexible enough so as not to hinder the motion of the separator.
Failure to comply can cause damage to connectors or material being processed.

SCREEN REPLACEMENT
Once old screen has been removed, follow these steps for the new screen replacement:
1. Place new screen assembly on frame. Make certain that screen is right side up by
checking position of tension ring. Also note position of Supertaut Plus II gasket (see
Figure 5-4). Take care that screen does not come in contact with center tie-down stud
and cause damage to screen.
Figure 5-4
Screen Positioning
CAUTION
Screens are fragile. Handle them carefully. Never place tools or parts on the screen or
damage to screen may occur. Check screens frequently for excess wear or damage.
As screen life is dependent on a wide variety of issues like mesh size, flow rate,
material properties, vibration level, maintenance, etc., we cannot guarantee how long
a screen will last. Note that if screens continue to vibrate for hours after initial failure
(tearing), wire segments may break loose from the mesh and fall into the screened
product.
2. Replace upper frame.
3. Replace clamp ring around frames. Clamp rings should be seated onto frames with a
hammer or rubber mallet before final torquing. Retighten to 32 foot pounds (4 kg. m). All
clamp rings MUST be properly fastened and tight before beginning operation to prevent
them from working loose and causing damage to gasket, frame, or screen. Re-check
torque after one hour of operation.
CAUTION
Always tighten clamp ring before tightening center tie-down assembly. This will help
assure proper vertical location of screen center and help prevent premature failure of
screen.

4.1.2 Function
In the LC-unit, a motor driven spindle pushes the lubricant out of the LC-unit. This moves
the piston and builds up pressure in the LC-unit of up to 5 bar (75 psi). The automatic
pressure shut off will turn the system OFF after several attempts when the pressure
exceeds 5 bar (75 psi).
The size of the LC-unit must be adjusted with the “VOL”switches of the four-way code
switch on the circuit board. The desired discharge period must be adjusted with the
“TIME”switches.

national electrical codes.
2. Remove table frame and all frames above table frame.
3. For units operating with a 2-1/2 horsepower (1.85 kW) or 5 horsepower (3.7 kW) motion
generator proceed to step 4. For units operating with a 1/2 horsepower motion
generator, refer to step 3a.
a. For a unit with a 1/2 horsepower motion generator, the base shell will need to
have two 13/16" holes drilled prior to the installation of the TechLubeTM retrofit
kit. Drill the first hole 5 inches from the left side of the base door hinge and 3-1/2
inches from the bottom of the base shell. The second hole is to be drilled 4
inches vertically above the first hole.
4. Remove top weight assembly (if necessary) to obtain access to top lube coupler.
5. Remove existing lube lines: bottom, top and top lube coupler.
6. Install new lube lines (red), which are pre-filled with SWECO recommended lubricant
(remove cap only when ready to install new lines).
7. Remove existing lube (grease) fittings.
CAUTION
TM
When initially installing the TechLube system, new SWECO large diameter (1/4" I.D.)
red lube hoses must be installed. Failure to replace existing lube lines can damage
canisters and motion generator. Failure to comply can void warranty.

8. For standard applications the TechLubeTM system contains two 120cc canisters to provide
lubrication to both the top and bottom bearing. Some machines, operating with a 5
horsepower (3.7 kW) motion generator, have the option of using a 250cc canister for the
top bearing only (refer to step 8d).
Follow steps 8a through 8c for installation of the mounting hardware for the two 120cc
canisters for standard applications:
a) Top Lube Line - for standard U.S. applications install one 1/4" street elbow and
one 1/4", 90° swivel elbow in the top lube line position as shown in Figure 10. For
standard SWECO Europe applications install two 1/4-1/8 reductions and one 1/4",
90° swivel elbow in the top lube line position as shown in Figure 11.
b) Bottom Lube Line - for standard U.S. applications install one 1/4" street elbow and
one 1/4" swivel elbow in the bottom lube line position as shown in Figure 10. For
standard SWECO Europe applications install two 1/4-1/8 reductions and one 1/4"
swivel elbow in the bottom lube line position as shown in Figure 11.
c) Before installing canisters follow instructions in Section 7 for preparation and initial
operation of the TechLubeTM system.
d) For optional U.S. applications with 250cc canister for top bearing, install one 1/2-
1/4 NPT fitting kit and one 1/4", 90° swivel elbow in the top lube line position.
9. Re-install top weight assembly (if applicable) and frames.
10. See following sections for starting, operating, switch settings, and proper lubrication
feed rate.
CAUTION
When initially installing the TechLubeTM system, new SWECO large diameter (1/4" I.D.)
red lube hoses must be installed. Failure to replace existing lube lines can damage
canisters and motion generator. Failure to comply can void warranty.
NOTE
It is recommended to mark the date of installation where the CE marking is located on
the LC-unit.
NOTE
The operating temperature range is +14°F to +122°F (-10°C to + 50°C). Within this
temperature range, a regular discharge and maximum output pressure up to 5 bar (75
psi) is guaranteed. For temperatures higher than +122°F (+ 50° C) and lower than +14°F
(-10° C), the correct function can no longer be guaranteed. The TechLubeTM is a single
point lubricator and is NOT designed to feed more than a single bearing.

Never change the four-way switch settings while lubricator is in operation, or anytime after
starting operation. Changing the settings during operation interferes with the controls and
monitoring electronics. Therefore, SWECO can no longer guarantee precise lubrication.
8. CHANGING LC-UNIT
8.1 General Notes
A simultaneous blinking of the red and green LED indicates that the empty LC-unit must be
changed.
Whenever the LC-unit is changed, the battery set must also be replaced. Otherwise,
correct operation of the lubricator cannot be guaranteed.
During the LC-unit exchange, it is possible to choose a different size and a different
discharge period for the new LC-unit by resetting the four-way code switches on the circuit
board.
Since the drive unit and circuit board must always be protected from moisture, the
exchange must be carried out in a dry place!

NOTIFICATION OF DAMAGE
Check the packing and the equipment for damage when
delivered. Notify the carrier and SWECO immediately of
any damage to the equipment. A relevant certificate
from the driver must be supplied. Inform all parties of

MOTION GENERATOR SPECIFICATIONS
The 2-1/2 and 5 HP motion generators are specifically
designed for operation in the SWECO vibro-energy
equipment. Check your nameplate for the voltage,

HAZARDOUS LOCATIONS
All motion generators rated by U.L. for Class I, Group D,
& Class II, Groups F & G and Groups E, F, & G
(explosion proof, TEEP) in hazardous locations include
internal heat sensing, normally closed thermostats. A
quantity of (2) two is installed. Each thermostat is
mounted to sense a different phase and is rated to open
at 150°C (302°F). The holding coil circuit (see Figure 1-
1) cannot close and the motion generator cannot be
started unless the temperature inside the unit drops
below 135°C (275°F). This allows both thermostats to
return to a closed position.
The thermostats are capable of handling the currents
found in starters up through NEMA Size 5 Ratings (345
volt-amps). The live electrical parts have sufficient
insulation suitable for 600 volts.
TEMPERATURE CODES
The maximum exterior surface temperature allowed by U
Class I, Group D and Class II, Groups F & G and Groups
& G is 165°C (329°F) with temperature code T3B.

LUBE LINES
Check that the lube lines are in good condition. If worn
or deteriorated, replace hoses with new ones. Purge the
old grease from the lines if not being replaced.
Completely fill the lube lines with new grease before
reconnecting to the motion generator.
AUTOMATIC GREASE LUBRICATOR
SWECO offers an automatic grease lubricator called the
“TechLube”. The “TechLube” is a self-contained
automatic grease lubricator with pre-selected grease
and dispensing rates established by SWECO for
optimum lubrication of the motion generator bearings. It
eliminates manual regreasing and assures the bearings
are being regreased to provide longer bearing life.
Consult a SWECO Representative for the details and

LUBE LINES
Check that the lube lines are in good condition. If worn
or deteriorated, replace hoses with new ones. Purge the
old grease from the lines if not being replaced.
Completely fill the lube lines with new grease before
reconnecting to the motion generator.
AUTOMATIC GREASE LUBRICATOR
SWECO offers an automatic grease lubricator called the
“TechLube”. The “TechLube” is a self-contained
automatic grease lubricator with pre-selected grease
and dispensing rates established by SWECO for
optimum lubrication of the motion generator bearings. It
eliminates manual regreasing and assures the bearings
are being regreased to provide longer bearing life.
Consult a SWECO Representative for the details and
specifications of the “TechLube”.
