Lubrication Schedules
The following Table illustrates a suggested initial lubrication schedule to be administered to the LMFC 250 Crusher. However,
due to the myriad of variables with each installation (Bearing size and type, operating temperatures, load bearings, vibrations
in equipment, methods of application etc.) the frequency of lubrication applied should be modified over time according to ex-
perience.
Note
: Over lubricating can be equally as detrimental as under lubricating. It is therefore recommended the lubrication applied
be supervised, documented and monitored as part of the overall routine maintenance schedule for this machine.
7.4.1
Routine Lubrication Maintenance Schedule (Example only)
Correct lubrication of equipment is very important to maximize life expectancy and performance. The following Table illustra-
tes an example of a routine lubrication maintenance schedule that may be handy, to monitor the lubrication of your machine.
Using an hour meter installed on the machine can assist with determining the correct amount of lubrication to be applied, as
time of operation may be more relevant than just dates.

Warning: Do not over
-
lubricate this machine. If grease is emerging from the Bearing Housings, too much is being pumped in. Grease
should occupy approximately 70% of the free space in the Bearing Housings to allow the grease to circulate through the Bearings.
