MAINTENANCE
Greasing process:
• Run the motor and get it up to normal operating temperature.
• Make sure the grease gun has the correct type of grease.
• Clean the areas around the grease fill fittings.
• Grease the bearing with the correct amount of grease as shown on the lubrication schedule you
have determined. Inject the grease very slowly to avoid damaging the seals.
• Remember that a grease gun can produce up to 15,000 pounds of pressure, which can blow out
seals or pump the grease to areas where it should not go.
• If you are re-greasing when the motor is out of service, run the motor until the bearing is at
normal operating temperature. This will allow for thermal expansion of the grease.
• After greasing, run the motor for a while (at least five minutes) to allow the motor to discharge
any excess grease.
