the user’s responsibility to take the necessary action to make the
Owner manual, particularly the Operating Instructions, under-
standable to these persons.
The Owner manual must be read and used by all persons who are
charged with work with the pump/lubrication system, e.g.
• Operation, including adjustment, troubleshooting during ope-
ration, elimination of production waste, maintenance, disposal
of process materials
• Maintenance (inspection, repairs)
•Transport
This Owner manual is intended to familiarize the user with the
pump/lubrication system and to enable him/her to use its va-
rious features.
The Operating Instructions contain important information for safe,
correct and economic operation of the pump/lubrication system.
Their observance will help avoid hazards, reduce repair costs and
downtime, increase the reliability and prolong the service life of
the pump/lubrication system.
These Operating Instructions must be completed to include the
respective national regulations concerning the prevention of acci-
dents and protection of the environment.

The Operating Instructions include general instructions which
must be followed when a pump/lubrication unit is installed, ope-
rated or serviced. Therefore, it is absolutely necessary for the
fitter and the specialist/user to read the Operating Instructions
before a unit is installed and commissioned. The Operating In-
structions must always be available on the site where the ma-
chine/system is erected.
All general safety instructions contained in this main chapter on
safety must be observed as well as all special safety instructions
given in other main chapters.
Hazard warnings in the Operating Instructions
The notes referring to safety contained in the Operating Instruc-
tions whose failure to observe may result in personal injury are
marked by the following symbol
Safety symbol acc. to DIN 4844-W9
The symbol
Safety symbol acc. to DIN 4844-W8
warns of an electrical hazard.
If ignoring the safety note might result in machine damages and
malfunction, the word
is added.
Warnings directly fixed to the machine must always be observed
and must be kept in completely legible condition.
CAUTION
Staff Qualification and Training
The staff responsible for operation, maintenance, inspection and
installation must be adequately qualified for these jobs. The user
must properly regulate the field of responsibility and supervision
of the personnel. If the personnel is not in command of the neces-
sary expertise, they must receive appropriate training and instruc-
tions.
If necessary, this can be done by the manufacturer/supplier on
behalf of the machine user. Furthermore, the user must ensure
that the contents of the Operating Instructions are fully under-
stood by the personnel.
Hazards resulting from failure to observe the safety instruc-
tions
Failuretoheed the safety warnings may resultindamageto equip-
ment and the environment and/or personal injury.
Failure to observe the safety notes may result in the loss of all
claims for damage.
As an example, in the following we list some dangers which may
result from failure to observe the warnings:
• failure of machine/system to fulfill important functions
• failure of specified methods for maintenance and repair
• personal injury due to electrical, mechanical and chemical influ-
ences
• danger to the environment due to leakage of harmful materials
Safety-Conscious Working
The safety instructions given in the Operating Instructions, the
prevailing national regulations for the prevention of accidents and
any internal working and shop regulations and accident preventi-
on measures of the user must be observed.
Safety Instructions for the User/Operator
• If warm or cold machine parts may involve hazards, the custo-
mer must protect them against accidental contact.
• Do not remove protection devices for moving parts while the
machine is in operation
• Leakages of harmful materials must be disposed of so as not
to jeopardize neither persons nor the environment. The requi-
rements of the law must be satisfied.
• Danger caused by electrical current must be excluded (for de-
tails refer to the applicable specifications of VDE and the local
power supply companies).

2.6 Mode of Operation
The lubricant is filled by hand into the reservoir (connection, item
12) via the opened cover or by means of a filling pump.
A stirring paddle with scraper and a fixed paddle (item 3) are in-
stalled in the reservoir.The grease is homogenized and purged of
air by the rotation of the stirring paddle. The fixed paddle prevents
the grease from flowing in the direction of rotation of the stirring
paddle. When an electrical low level control is installed, the fixed
paddle is pivoted in a needle bearing.
The pump element (item 4) operates as a piston pump with 2 pi-
stons operating in opposite direction which suck in lubricant alter-
nately and then feed it through the outlet hole to the pressure line.
The outlet channels of the high-pressure pistons are controlled by
a floating valve piston.
The pump element is driven by a hollow shaft with eccentric pin
and roller, by which the rotary movement of the driving shaft is
convertedintotheoscillatingmovementofthepumppistons.With
this kind of drive, the direction of rotation of the pump shaft can be
selected and changed as desired.
The lubricant supplied by the pump element is fed via a check
valve (item 7) and a lubricant filter (item 8) to the pressure line
connection (item 10).
A safety valve (item 6) and a pressure gauge (item 9) are also
supplied with the pressure line connection.
