Note 1:
When sand and salt are present, or the plates under go a washdown,
a heavy duty silicone spray lubricant should be used to replace
grease from the factory. The lubricant should help protect from
corrosion without collecting dust and contaminants, and will resist
washing off when exposed to water.
Recommended Lubricant Brands:
Fluid Film (Aerosol or Non-Aerosol), LPS-2 Heavy Duty Lubricant, or
CRC 3-36.
