OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE

Lubrication Maintenance
1. Table 4-1 specifies the lubrication points and
intervals on the 2112 Coulter Chisel. Proper
maintenance of your machine will, under normal
operating conditions, help to keep it operating at or
near its peak performance for an extended period of
time. Proper maintenance is also a condition of
keeping your warranty in good status
See
Figure 4-10 .
2. When lubricating the Coulter Chisel, SAE
multi-purpose EP grease, or EP grease with 3-5%
molybdenum sulfide is recommended. Wipe soil from
fittings before greasing. Replace any lost or broken
fittings immediately.
3. Coulter gang bearings are equipped with triple-lip
seals that will let grease pass and not harm the seal.
Regular lubrication will maintain a full grease cavity
and help purge any contaminants. Grease the
bearings before long periods of storage to prevent
moisture buildup within the bearing cavity.
4. Wheel seals and walking tandem seals, when
properly installed, will allow grease to pass without
harm to seals. Regular lubrication will extend service
life, particularly in severe operating conditions.
5. The Coulter Chisel is equipped with
maintenance-free bearings in the lifts and leveler.
These areas require no lubrication.
