6-11 LUBRICATION
All parts that require lubrication have been lubricated
during the assembly with molybdenum disulphide grease
(Eaton Material No. 53701 QB). Over a period of time, this
lubricant may be pushed out of the way or degrade.
Proper lubrication at regular intervals is essential for
maintaining the reliable performance of the mechanism.
Once a year or every 500 operations whichever comes
first, the circuit breaker should be relubricated. The
locations shown in Figure
6-1
should be lubricated with a
drop of light machine oil.
After lubrication, operate the circuit breaker several times
manually and electrically
Roller bearings are used on the pole shaft, the cam shaft,
the main link and the motor eccentric. These bearings are
packed at the factory with a top grade slow oxidizing
grease which normally should be effective for many
years. They should not be disturbed unless there is
definite evidence of sluggishness, dirt or parts are
dismantled for same reason.
If it becomes necessary to disassemble the
mechanism, the bearings and related parts should be
thoroughly cleaned. Remove old grease in a good
grease solvent. Do not use carbon tetrachloride.
They should then be washed in light machine oil until
the cleaner is removed. After the oil has been drawn
of, the bearings should be packed with Eaton Grease
53701QB or equivalent.
