NOTE:
The fill point requires a Groeneveld female
fill pump adaptor. You can purchase these via your
local Groeneveld dealer or contact your Goldacres
dealer to order.
IMPORTANT:
Do not overfill the main reservoir. Fill
to about 2 cm from the top only. This instruction is
also on the reservoir tank. Over filling will cause the
reservoir to fracture.
IMPORTANT:
Use ONLY HP0 or NLGI0 rated
grease. It needs to be Lithium based and contain NO
Teflon or Graphite as they stick to the meters and
eventually jam them. The grease must NOT contain
Aluminium or Copper compounds as they are
abrasive to the seals and lines.
If you should happen to slightly overfill the reservoir,
grease will overflow from the hole on the right of
the pump unit. This will continue for about 3 days
until the overflow channel is clear.
Main Air Supply
The air supply that operates the auto greasing
system is the red air line running from the pneumatic
manifold behind the right hand pod, to the bottom
of the pump unit.
Electronic Timer
The electronic timer sets the intervals for operation
of the greasing system. The auto greaser applies only
small, metered amounts of grease at a time. This can
be set at 30 minute intervals. The timer is located in
the main cabin in the main fuse compartment to the
right of the operators’ seat. The timer is wired into
the red covered ignition bus or via the 180A Relay.
Power is applied when the ignition key is turned on.
The timer is protected by a 10A fuse in the clear
orange cover.
IMPORTANT:
The timer should initially be preset to
90 minutes intervals as this has been found to be the
optimal grease delivery interval for most applications.
However, certain operating conditions will require
more or less than this amount.
It is the responsibility of the operator to ensure that
the machine parts are receiving sufficient lubrication.
Hotter operating conditions cause the grease to
become thinner and may therefore require more
frequent interval settings.
Over lubrication, as well as under lubrication, can
lead to premature failure of machine components
and should be avoided.
