5.4 During Operation
♦ Carry out regular inspections during operation. You should pay special attention to leakage, to the condition
of the distributor, and the complete lubrication system!
♦ Regularly check the condition of the grease lines and the connections!
♦ Regularly check the filling level of the transparent PRO LC unit of the lubricator!
♦ After one or several additional discharges, you have to calculate the remaining discharge period and mark it
in your lubrication and maintenance schedule.
♦ If a malfunction is indicated on the display, you can determine the cause using the trouble shooting guide
(refer to chart 3, chapter 6.2). If the fault cannot be fixed, please contact your supplier for technical support.
Additional discharges and long machine standstills must always be taken into account with regard to the
remaining discharge period of the lubrication system.
5.5 Switching the Complete Lubrication System On
To switch on the lubrication system PRO (refer to figure 8), keep the ON/OFF/SELECT button of the lubricator
pressed until the display no longer shows “ ”.
To start the lubrication system PRO C you have to switch on power supply.
After switch-on, the lubricator automatically does an initialization (system recognizes the activated outlets). During
initialization, the outlets (represented by squares) in the display are blinking. Activated outlets (squares) will be
blackened, inactive outlets (squares) are blank. When the initialization process is finished, the green LED blinks
and the display shows the outlets (squares), the remaining volume (in percent), and the LC unit size (250 and
500 cm
3
).
5.7 Determining the Discharge Period
The required discharge period must be determined using the Operating Instructions of the connected lubricator.
You have to take into account that the distributor perma MP-6 is able to supply an equal amount of lubricant to
up six lubrication points.
When determining the discharge volume, you have to multiply the number of open outlets with the required
discharge volume per outlet. With the result of this calculation you can determine the setting point of the
discharge period using the Operating Instructions of the connected lubricator.

Initialization process The lubrication system is on.
When the lubrication system is switched on for the first time, the initialization is carried out automatically
by the lubricator. The outlets (squares), the remaining volume (in percent), and the LC unit size (250 or
500 cm
3
) are only displayed after the initialization process is finished.
5.6 Switching the Complete Lubrication System Off
To switch off the lubrication system PRO (refer to figure 9), keep the ON/OFF/SELECT button of the lubricator
pressed until the display no longer indicates the remaining volume but indicates “ ” instead.
To stop the lubrication system PRO C you only have to switch on power supply.
When the lubrication system is switched off, all of the settings are saved. This means that if you start the
lubricator again, it will take up operation at the point where it had been switched off.
