Page 10: Introduction
Your Sutorbilt blower is a precision engineered blower that has been carefully manufactured and thoroughly tested at the state-of the art Gardner Denver Blower Factory in Sedalia, Missouri. As with other precision machinery, there are several relatively simple installation, operation and maintenance procedures that you must observe to assure optimum blower performance. -
Page 11: Section 1, Equipment Check
STORAGE Your Gardner Denver Blower was packaged at the factory with adequate protection to permit normal storage for up to six (6) months. If the unit is to be stored under adverse conditions or for extended periods of time, the following additional measures should be taken to prevent damage. - Page 12 Blower inlet and outlet are temporarily capped to keep out dirt and other contaminants during shipment. These covers must be removed before start-up. The internal surfaces of all Sutorbilt units are mist sprayed with a rust preventative to protect the machine during shipment.

Page 13: Section 2, Installation
SECTION 2 INSTALLATION LOCATION Install the blower in a well lit, clean dry place with plenty of room for inspection and maintenance. FOUNDATIONS For permanent installation we recommend concrete foundations be provided, and the equipment should be grouted to the concrete. It is necessary that a suitable base be used, such as a steel combination base under blower and motor, or a separate sole plate under each. -
Page 14: Drive Installation
FIGURE 2-1 – BLOWER MOUNTING CONFIGURATIONS 4. Secure the mounting feet capscrews to the torque value in Figure 7-8, page 34. NOTICE When changing mounting configuration, it may be necessary to reposition vent plug (B), and drain plug (A). Refer to Figure 3-1, page 17, for correct location. DRIVE INSTALLATION When selecting a V-belt drive, check to be sure the shaft overhung load limitation is not exceeded. -
Page 15: Piping
Exceeding overhung load limitations leads to unwarrantable premature bearing failure and shaft breakage. The location of the sheave on the blower shaft greatly affects the stress in the shaft. The optimum blower sheave positioning is as close as possible to the blower drive cover, not to exceed dimension “C” in Drive Shaft Illustration, FIGURE 2-2, page 15 The calculated shaft moment must not exceed the maximum allowable moment listed in Maximum Allowable Moment Chart, FIGURE 2-2 page 15. -

Page 17: Air Filters And Filter Silencers
AIR FILTERS AND FILTER SILENCERS Servicing the air filters is one of the most important maintenance operations to be performed to insure long blower life. Servicing frequency of filter elements is not time predictable. A differential pressure indicator, with a continuous gauge reading, should be installed across the inlet filter. -
Page 18: Section 3, Lubrication
Drive end bearings are grease lubricated at the factory with Lithium Complex based grease. For relubrication, use Gardner Denver AEON PD Grease, Part Number 28H283. AEON PD Grease is a high temperature, high performance grease that is formulated with antiwear additives to provide superior service under the severe operating conditions of positive displacement blowers. -
Page 19: Aeon Pd Food Grade Lubricant
RECOMMENDED LUBRICANT Gear Diameter Vertical Horizontal 2” 1/4 PT. 1/2 PT. 3” 1/3 PT. 2/3 PT. 4” 3/4 PT. 1 PT. 5” 1 PT. 2-1/4 PT. FIGURE 3-2 – APPROXIMATE OIL CAPACITIES The factory recommended lubricant is AEON PD Synthetic Lubricant. AEON PD is formulated especially for positive displacement blowers to provide maximum protection at any temperature. -
Page 20: Figure 3-4 - Lubrication Recommendation
Do not overfill as this will tend to cause excessive heating of the gears and may damage the unit. AEON PD Synthetic Lubricant should be drained after 6000 hours of operation. Re-fill with fresh AEON PD oil. If mineral oil is used, perform the above oil—change maintenance every 1500 hours. Recommended service intervals are for normal blower operating conditions. -
Page 21: Section 4, Operation
SECTION 4 OPERATION Future operating problems can be avoided if proper precautions are observed when the equipment is first put into service. Before starting under power, the blower should be turned over by hand to make certain there is not binding or internal contact. -
Page 22: Blower Startup Checklist
BLOWER STARTUP CHECKLIST This startup procedure should be followed during the initial installation and after any shutdown periods or after the blower has been worked on or moved to new location. It is suggested that the steps be followed in sequence and checked off (v) in the boxes provided. -
Page 23: Safety Precautions
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Do not operate blower with open inlet or outlet port. Do not exceed specified vacuum or pressure limitations. Do not operate above or below recommended blower speed range. Blower is not to be used where non-sparking equipment is specified. Do not operate without belt guard or coupling shield. -

Page 32: Installing The Timing Gears
These impeller-to-impeller and impeller-to-case clearances are extremely critical. Even though the blower may turn freely by hand when cold, under operating conditions, the parts expand, and the rotors are subject to slight defection. If the clearances are not sufficient, the impellers may contact each other or the housing with destructive results. -
Page 33: Setting Impeller End Clearances
NOTICE If gears are being replaced, taper pin holes must be drilled after the gears are correctly positioned. Be careful not to let cuttings drop behind the gears and contaminate the bearings. Be careful not to let cuttings drop behind the gears and contaminate the bearings. F. -

16. Replace drive shaft grease seal (31) in the drive end cover (29). The seal lip should always face towards the bearing or lubricant. Pack bearing cavities with recommended grease and secure drive cover with capscrews (30) to drive headplate. Refer to FIGURE 7-8 for torque specifications. Exercise care not to damage the seal lip as it passes over the shaft keyway. -
