Maintenance Section
4.3 Lubrication:
Remove the negative battery terminal before at-
tempting any lubrication procedures.
Thoroughly read and understand the safety and
pre-operating sections of this manual before per-
forming any lubrication procedures.
NOTE;
DO NOT mix different
types of grease. The old grease
MUST BE purged before a differ
-
ent type of grease is used. Mix
-
ing grease WILL cause premature
failure to the bearings.
The following are general lubrication procedures for our stan
-
dard units. Any special or custom built units may have other
lubrication procedures not directly mentioned in this manual.
Please consult the factory or your dealer before any lubricat-
ing procedures not specifically mentioned in this manual.
Proper lubrication of your unit correlates directly to how long
your unit will last. A properly maintained unit will last much
longer than a unit that is not maintained properly.
NOTE:
Always lubricate bearings at the end of each work day. This
will displace any moisture in the bearings. Also lubricate thor
-
ougly before extended shutdown or storage.
Lubrication Points:
1.
Drive Bearings (figure 4.3a):
These bearings are criti-
cal components of the belt-driven units. These bearings
should be greased every 10 hours with approximately two
strokes from the average hand pump grease gun. The
type of grease used in these bearings are also critical
to the performance of the bearings. A multi-purpose,
heavy-load, high-temperature, moisture resistant #2
grease is required for the drive bearings. We recommend
LubeMaster Premalube 4234 grease
. Other premium
quality grease that matches the above requirements may
be used but after years of testing we recommends the
Premalube grease.
