LUBRICATION & MAINTENANCE CONTINUED
LUBRICATION OF BEARINGS
Grease in a bearing acts to prevent excessive wear of parts, protects ball races and balls from corrosion and
aids in preventing excessive heat within the bearing. It is very important the grease maintains its proper
consistency during operation. It must not be fluid and it must not channel.
Lubricate bearings by pumping grease slowly until it forms a slight bead around the seals. This bead indicates
adequate lubrication and also provides additional protection against the entrance of dirt.
Make sure all fittings are thoroughly cleaned before grease is injected. Points to be lubricated by means of a
grease gun have standard grease fittings.
CLEAN UP
Thoroughly wash unit every two to three days during the operating season to maintain minimal maintenance
operation. Hose unit down under pressure to free all sticky and frozen material.
It is important the unit be thoroughly cleaned at the end of each operating season. All lubrication and
maintenance instructions should be closely followed. Repaint worn spots to prevent formation of rust.
FASTENERS
Tighten all screw fasteners to recommended torque’s after first week of operation and annually thereafter. If
loose fasteners are found at any time, tighten to the recommended torque. Replace any lost or damaged
fasteners or other parts immediately. Check body mounting hardware every week.
High pressure wash can inject water and/or fertilizer into control components,
causing damage. Use caution when cleaning these areas.
