8.3.1 Lubrication
The spindle must be lubricated for the first time after three years,
and then every year thereafter.
The gear unit only if required, e.g. if used continuously in climates
encouraging corrosion (depending on visual inspection).
ADVICE!
We recommend JOST special grease SKE
005670000 for lubricating the gear unit (2 car-
tridges of 400 ml; fill quantity 60 g per landing
gear). Use of other greases can lead to restricted
availability at low temperatures.
Use high-performance EP grease with a lithium
saponified base and good adhesion/corrosion pro-
tection properties for lubricating the spindle and
spindle nut. Comply with the temperature range
appropriate for the application in question.
Procedure for lubricating the spindle
Extend the landing gear completely.
Remove the sealing plug (1) from the lubricating hole.
Fill the grease trough in the spindle nut with approx. 200 g EP
grease.
Screw in the spindle as far as the stop, then out and back in
again.
Reinsert the sealing plug (1) afterwards. However, it is rec-
ommended for the sealing plug to be replaced by a special
grease nipple (JOST genuine part JS E0084000).
ATTENTION!
Using a different grease nipple can lead to damage to
the landing gear.
