Lubrication Maintenance
Caution: Do not over oil these points.
• Head Bearing Assembly - The roller bearing, located in the
front assembly, requires monthly lubrication. Use a grease
gun to lubricate the zerk fitting with multipurpose grease. A
lithium-base grease is recommended.
• Drum Shaft and Drum Bearings - The drum shaft requires
monthly lubrication. Use a multipurpose grease or heavy oil.
Keeping the shaft lubricated means the drum will slide and
will not ‘freeze’ to the shaft and need to be repaired. The drum
bearings require some light oil monthly.
• Belt - Check tension during the first 24 to 48 hours of operation.
• Belt Tension - Ideal deflection is 1/4”. Over tensioning shortens
belt and bearing life.
• Air Foot Pedal - Check for wear or stress cracks.
Cable Care Instructions
Take care of your cable for optimum performance. The
recommended care procedure is as follows:
• Break in a new cable. To relieve the stress on new cable that
has been coiled since its manufacture, put it in a clean line and
run it for 10 minutes.
• Oil the cable once a week.
• Rinse the cable immediately after each use with the hottest
water available. This is especially important if the cable was in
acid or alkali during use.
• When one end of the cable begins to show wear, rewind and
use the opposite end. (Tip: order the same kind of end fittings
on both ends of the cable.)
• If the cable kinks, cut out the kink and splice the cable ends
together.
