30022C4x, 30022T5x and 30022V6J Main Bearing Maintenance
30022C4x, 30022T5x and 30022V6J main bearing housings are oil-filled and require periodic
draining and refilling (see below).
See the appropriate “MAIN BEARING ASSEMBLY” (see Table of Contents) during this
procedure.
1. Remove the drain plug on the bottom of the main bearing housing and allow the bearing
housing to drain completely (Figure 1). Inspect the leak-off, drained oil, and magnetic drain
plug for water and/or metal particles. Install the drain plug. Water and/or metal particles can
indicate worn or damaged seals and bearings.
2. Locate the two 1/2" plastic tubes secured to the electrical control chassis. Clean the
surrounding area and remove the cork stoppers from each (Figure 2).
3. Strictly following lubrication specifications, refill the bearing housing. After refilling the
bearing housing, re-install the cork stoppers and clean any excess lubricant from the machine.
