Lubricate weekly in a heavy use
production
environment.
Use
NSF/NLG12 rated food grade grease
(such as Bel-Ray No-Tox #2 or
equivalent). A general-purpose food
grade machine oil spray is also
acceptable
such

lubricant (available from retailers such
as Amazon). Lubricate all moving or
hinged points.

trip, have an electrician diagnose the cause of the fault.
