Lubrication
All original fan motors and bearings are
furnished with factory lubrication. Some
applications will require that bearings be re-
lubricated periodically. The schedule will
depend on the operating duty, temperature
variations or other severe atmospheric
conditions.
Bearings should be re-lubricated when at
normal operating temperatures, but not
running. Rotate the fan shaft by hand and
add only enough grease to purge the seals.
DO NOT OVERLUBRICATE.
Recommended greases are:
SHELL OIL - DOLIUM R
CHEVRON OIL - SRI No. 2
TEXACO INC. - PREMIUM RB
