• Use compressed air to remove all traces of penetrating oil from the bearing and from the bear- ing
joi nts.
• Apply new lubri cating oil. ELIET recommends Novatio ClearLube as a lubri cant.

D. Lubricating the chains and the gearwheels
This group includes the foll owing locations on the machine:
Chain drive of the feed roller.
Use the foll owing procedure :
• Remove the guards to expose the drive (see Chapter 11.2.2).
• Wipe away all grease in and around the drive.
• Use penetrating oil containing molybdenum disulphide to dissolve the lubri cant.
• When the drive is clean and all traces of grease and dirt have been removed, you can apply new
lubri cant.
• Use a small brush to apply the lubri cant to the teeth of the gearwheels. Use Sunoco Multi Pur-
pose Grease or a product of the same quali ty.
• It is better to use a thin liquid lubri cant that can penetrate into the chains. For this, ELIET
recommends Clear Lube lubri cant spray from Novatio.
• After applying the lubri cant, the guards are carefully refitted in order to keep out dust and dirt
as much as possibl e.
All these greases are available from your ELIET Dealer.
