NOTE
The United States Department of Agriculture and
the Food and Drug Administration require that
lubricants used on food processing equipment
be certified for this use. Use lubricants only in
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
A. Assemble all “O” Rings onto parts dry,
without
lubrication
. Then apply a thin film of sanitary
lubrication to exposed surfaces of the “O” Rings.
Apply thin film of sanitary lubricant to metal part of
rear seal. Also apply a thin film of sanitary lubricant
inside the hole on the front of the auger.
B. Assemble the rear seals onto the augers with the
large end to the rear. Be sure the “O” Ring is in place
before installing the rear seal.
C. Lubricate the inside of the auger drive sockets (rear)
with a small amount of white socket lubricant. A small
container of socket lubricant is shipped with the
