As with all machinery, proper attention and
maintenance is the key to long component life,
maximum performance, and safe operation. By
spending a few minutes reading and following these
preventive measures, you should reduce the downtime
and prolong the life of your system.
It is important to understand that these maintenance
schedules are minimum recommendations. Highlight
Industries, Inc. cannot possibly know, evaluate or
advise the various trades in all schedules of periodic
maintenance. Accordingly, anyone who maintains
or services a turntable only machine must first satisfy
himself/herself as to the schedules of preventive
maintenance based on cycling operation and
environmental locations.
WARNING! All maintenance operations require
the equipment to be powered down and
locked out for personnel safety.
LOCK-OUT/ TAG-OUT PROCEDURES
Be sure that anyone performing any type of
maintenance on this equipment is familiar with and is
adhering to the lock-out/tag-out procedures set forth by
the General OSHA or the State OSHA guidelines.
VISUAL CHECKS
Visual checks should be conducted at least once per month:
1. Keep the machine and surrounding area as clean
as possible, especially near moving components.
2. Check for loose hardware, especially set screws
located in: sprocket hubs, bearing hubs, and flanges.
3. Check for loose cotter pins.
4. Check for dry seals at the bearings.
5. Check for loose electrical connections and for
frayed cords and cables. Replace immediately any
damaged cords and cables.
TURNTABLE BEARING LUBRICATION TAB
If the turntable becomes noisy during operation, the
supporting cam follower bearings under the turntable
top may need replacement. The bearings are sealed
and lubed for life, but will require replacement after
several years of regular use. It is necessary to replace
the entire cam follower assembly (bearings and plastic
housing), not just the bearings, should the bearings
become worn.

PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
The King Post Assembly (center bearing) when worn
is also replaced as a unit rather than individual
components.
WARNING! All Failure to follow these
procedures will reduce the life of your
turntable and manufacturer's warranty
obligation.
The main turntable bearing should be lubricated with
clean grease that conforms to NLGI EP-2 penetration.
Wipe fittings clean before and after lubrication; rotate
the turntable while lubricating. Thereafter, use the
following recommendation for periodic lubricating:
SHIFT OPERATION
Single Shift
Double Shift
Triple Shift
TURNTABLE BELT ADJUSTMENT
Loosen the four reducer plate bolts. Adjust the position
of the reducer to the desired belt tension using the rear
tensioning bolt. Retighten the four reducer plate bolts.
MISCELLANEOUS PIVOT AND ROTATING BEARINGS
All other bearings not mentioned previously should be
greased bi-monthly using Mobile EP-1 or equivalent.
