LUBRICATION PLAN
The importance of adequate lubrication on the machine is easily understood. The correct use of appropriate lubricants
signifi cantly contributes to
achieving maximum performance of the machine and to decrease faults.
While handling lubricants, adhere to the following preventive health protection measures:
•
Only use the amount of lubricant required to lubricate the mechanism concerned. Dry any excess oil, grease or graphite with a lint-free cloth.
•
Excess lubricant, just as its lack, may sometimes be prejudicial to the proper operation of the machine.
•
Only the recommended lubricants or greases must be used, or lubricants or greases with equivalent features and tried and tested quality.
•
Avoid prolonged, excessive or repeated contact of the skin with lubrication products and inhaling their vapours.
•
Protect the skin by wearing appropriate clothes and protection equipment (e.g. protection overalls, goggles and gloves) or by applying a protective
product.
•
In the event of contact with the skin wash with plenty of water and soap or specifi c products.
DANGER
Lubricants are fl ammable products. Comply with the instructions supplied by the labels placed on the containers.
During disposal operations of waste lubricants, comply with the following environmental protection rules:
•
Lubricants may contaminate water and soil. Therefore, never release lubricants on the ground, in water, in sewers. Every infringement to these
rules may be prosecuted according to law. When using lubricants keep an oil binder at hand.
•
Carefully recover waste lubricants, separating mineral based products from synthetic based ones. Upon disposal comply with applicable
regulations on waste oil disposal.
The lubricants used must have good emulsion stability and be inalterable to ageing. They must not damage the material which scraper rings, joints,
rubber/plastic parts and paint of the machine are ib contact with.
Continue using the lubricants used upon
fi rst use or fi lling up.
Where this is not be possible, only use conforming products set out in the oil
compatibility charts provided by the various manufacturers. Only using suitable grades of lubricants assures safe operation of the machine.
CAUTION
It is forbidden to mix lubricants of different grades, since their composition and the additives they contain do not have the same
features. This rule must be especially applied to mixes of synthetic and mineral lubricants.
For any lubricating oil topping up, it is essential to use the same product by type and brand. As an alternative, if these have exceeded 50% of
their service life it is recommended to completely replace them, only by doing so can the brand be changed, albeit keeping to the same technical
specifi cations called for by the Manufacturer.
Should you intend to use other lubricants than those set out, you must pre-emptively check whether the two products are compatible.
In the event of doubt the lubricant used up until then must be completely removed through a washing procedure of the entire circuit.
CAUTION
To prevent the contamination hazard, the lubrication procedures must be carried out paying attention to assuring absolute
cleanliness.
