oz. (1.77 grams) (by volume) of grease. Therefore, one fluid ounce (28.3 grams) of grease would be pro-
vided by 16 strokes of the grease gun. Determine the flow rate of your grease gun by pumping one ounce
into a calibrated container. If fewer than 16 strokes are required, all quantities in strokes in the schedule
should be reduced accordingly, and if more than 16 strokes are required, the number of strokes should be in-
creased. Before starting lubrication, make sure your grease gun is working and that you get a full
charge of grease with every stroke.
3. Do not pump grease in until it oozes out of the spring loaded relief plug. Plugs bleed out excess grease
and help prevent abnormal pressures from building up in the housing during operation (especially when the
machine is first commissioned and after each lubrication). Plugs will not protect against over-lubrication.
ENTANGLE AND CRUSH HAZARD—Belts and pulleys can entangle and crush
body parts. Power is ON and cylinder is turning during the following procedure.

Use extreme care when working near moving components.
Ë Water Seal Lubrication Procedure
Grease the water seals as follows:
