Operation
Figure 1
Start-up Checks. Normal Operation

The following describes the checking procedures for the initial start-up.
Check the function of the hydraulic motor. Make a note of the number of minutes it takes to do one revolution (Figure 1).
The following times are given as a guide for a normal operating condition:
Engine at idle: 10 minutes maximum

Engine at max RPM: 5 minutes maximum.
Note : If the operating indicator does not rotate, or the time for one revolution is more than 5 or 10 minutes, check the pressure drop and make a
note of the value. Under normal operating conditions, the value must not exceed 12 psi.
Check for any external oil leaks. If there is an oil leakage, tighten the bolts or change the gaskets as necessary.
When correctly installed and initial start-up performed, the Eliminator™ Filter requires very little attention. However, to provide continued reliable operation, the
Eliminator filter hydraulic motor must be checked at regular intervals. See Figure 2 below.
Figure 2
Determination of reference values

Approximately 100 operating hours after the initial start-up or major maintenance procedure, reference values for the pressure drop and rotation of the operating
indicator must be noted and recorded.
Check the pressure drop and mark this value - Base Line Pressure Drop from 1 to 2 in figure 3.
Note oil temperature and engine speed when measuring the pressure drop.
Check the number of minutes for one revolution of the operating indicator and mark this value - Delta Time (Figure 2).
Figure 3
Daily Checks
Every day the pressure drop and operating indicator must be checked visually to make sure:
• The pressure drop has not increased by more than 2.9 psi above the Base Line Pressure Drop recorded at start up. For example, if Baseline Pressure Drop is 4
psi, maximum pressure drop at the same conditions must not exceed 6.9 psi. (Figure 3)
• The operating indicator rotates in a clockwise manner. (Figure 1)
• The number of minutes for one revolution is not more than 1 minute above the delta time. (Figure 2)
• If pressure drop and operating indicator values are higher than stated, go to Troubleshooting.
Note : These checks must be made with the engine at idle.
Troubleshooting Procedures and Techniques

A thorough analysis of the customer's complaint is the key to successful troubleshooting. The more information known about a complaint, the faster and easier the
problem can be solved.
The Troubleshooting Symptom Charts are organized so that a problem can be located and corrected by doing the easiest and most logical things first. Complete all
steps in the sequence shown from top to bottom.
It is not possible to include all the solutions to problems that can occur; however, these charts are designed to stimulate a thought process that will lead to the cause
and correction of the problem.
Follow these basic troubleshooting steps:
• Get all the facts concerning the complaint

• Analyze the problem thoroughly
• Relate the symptoms to the basic engine systems and components
• Consider any recent maintenance or repair action that can relate to the complaint
• Double-check before beginning any disassembly
