Lubrication
CAUTION: ALWAYS STOP THE MACHINE TO LUBRICATE OR TO MAKE ANY
ADJUSTMENTS.
The SuperSpread is designed to require a minimum of lubrication. However, the importance of sufficient and
proper lubrication cannot be over-emphasized as it is the best insurance against unnecessary repairs and will
greatly increase the life of the machine.
The operator should become familiar with all lubrication points and establish a systematic routine to ensure com-
plete and quick lubrication of the machine. Refer to the following pages for location of grease fittings.
The following system of lubrication is suggested:
Lubricate the entire machine thoroughly with a good grade of gun grease every 100 loads or once a month,
whichever comes first. Make certain the grease fittings are free of paint and dirt and force grease into them
until the grease comes out around the shaft.
Caution: Do not over lubricate sealed bearings. Following a regu-
lar maintenance schedule, one stroke of a manual grease pump into a U joint Zerk fitting and a half stroke on
any other sealed bearing should be sufficient.
The following greases are recommended for use rather than other EP-2 lubricants, because they are less prone to
washing out under exposure to rain and other fluids.
