4.1 Lubrication & General
Maintenance Introduction
Lubrication Points
You should become familiar with the location of all
grease fittings as they require frequent lubrica -
tion. The thru-shaft bearing requires specialized
lubricant.
Refer to the Maintenance Matrix chart in the
Scheduled Maintenance section in this manual
and component manufacturer’s operating and/or
maintenance manuals for lubricant specifications
and maintenance schedules.
Some lubrication points require grease daily or
weekly. In extremely wet or dirty conditions the
requirements could increase. The lubrication fre-
quency outlined in this section should be consid-
ered the minimum requirement.
Before operating or performing any maintenance,
make sure the power system is properly shutdown
and secured in the service position.
Service Position
Properly shutting down and securing the Ground
Hog and power system for service is critical to the
safety of the operator and/or service personnel.
Use the following procedure to place the
Ground Hog in the service position:
1. Make sure the power system is shutdown to
disable the UHP water system.
2. Disconnect the UHP water hoses. Use tape or
plastic caps to protect the fittings and prevent
dirt from entering the hoses.
3. Follow all Lockout/tagout and additional shut-
down procedures established in your company
safety guidelines to complete the service
position.
