LUBRICATION
1.
ENGINE OIL
The long life and successful operation of any piece of machinery is dependent
on frequent and thorough lubrication. Before using the trowel, always check
your engine for oil. Use proper engine oil as recommended in the engine
manufacturer’s manual. Fill crankcase to levels as recommended.
2.
SPIDER PLATE
The trowel arm on the spider plate does not require lubrication. If a trowel
arm becomes jammed, this is probably due to a bent arm, which will require
replacement. Appropriate "winterize" steps should be taken if the machine is
going to be stored for long periods of time.
3.
GEARBOX
In operation the gearbox lubricant is in fluid state. When the machine is
stopped the lubricant returns to a gel state. It will only be necessary to inspect
the sealed components if the outside of the gearbox gets too oily or otherwise
shows evidence of a leak. If this happens, clean the machine thoroughly and
look for leaks. Effect necessary repairs immediately, Use SHELL TIVELA
COMPOUNDS 'A' (0.3L, 10.1oz.) gear oil or equivalent to top up the gear
box after any maintenance to the internal components.
