If lubricants other than Marley factory lubricants are used, they
must not contain any additives (such as detergents or EP addi-
tives) which are adversely affected by moisture and could reduce
the service life of the Geareducer. The responsibility for use of
lubricants other than Marley factory lubricants rests with the
customer/owner and the lubricant supplier.
Seasonal temperature changes may require one viscosity of oil for
