Note 1 pump/stroke of manual grease gun typically produces 1cc of grease
The KEENAN MechFiber345 & MechFiber365 are fitted with a 13-port central
greasing manifold as standard, located at the right side of the machine, inside
front cover. It allows greasing of all the inaccessible grease points of the drive
system of the machine from that one location.
An instruction decal is fitted above the manifold detailing the greasing interval
(40 hours) and the amount of grease to be applied to each point (see below). All
other bearings & pivot points not serviced by this manifold should receive 3cc
(5g/0.175oz) of grease at the same 40 hour intervals.
After every 40 hours of operation apply grease to all bearings through grease fittings.
These are as follows:
Grease point 1 Input shaft bearing (front)
see figure 34 & 35
Grease point 2 Input shaft bearing (rear)
see figure 34 & 35
Grease point 3 Idler shaft bearing (front)
see figure 34 & 35
Grease point 4 Idler shaft bearing (rear)
see figure 34 & 35
Grease point 5 Auger bearing (front)
see figure 34 & 35
Grease point 6 Rotor bearing (front)
see figure 34 & 35
Grease point 7 Primary drive tensioner sprocket
see figure 34 & 35
Grease point 15 Rotor bearing (rear)
see figure 36
Grease point 14 Auger bearing (rear)
see figure 36
After every 40 hours of operation apply grease to the following pivot points through grease fittings.
Grease point 8 Primary chain tensioner compression see figure 34 & 35
spring seat
Grease point 9 Rotor drive tensioner arm pivot
see figure 34 & 35
Grease point 10 Rotor drive chain tensioner strut lower see figure 34 & 35
pivot bush
Grease point 11 Rotor drive chain tensioner strut
see figure 34 & 35
Upper pivot bush
Grease point 12 Rotor drive chain tensioner spring
see figure 34 & 35
seat shaft
Grease point 13 VFC door ram top pin (front)
see figure 34 & 35
Grease point 16 VFC door ram top pin (rear)
see figure 36
Grease point 17 VFC door ram lower pin (rear)
see figure 36
Grease point 18 VFC door ram lower pin (front)
see figure 36
Check the VFC door is able to move freely each day and grease as appropriate.
