On this page, you will find some important information for the quick and easy operation and setting of 
the Timken C-Power multi-point lubricators. The complete operating manual should be read before the first 
use of the C-Power prior to the assembly with a lubricator. If you need detailed, in-depth information, please
refer to the complete set of operating instructions. Make sure to follow the instructions given in the “Safety
Instructions” chapter and observe the operating instructions for the connected lubricator.

1.

Assembly of the Timken C-Power Distribution Block (refer to chapters 4.1 and 4.2)

Attach connecting pieces to the outlets that are to be opened. Seal the other outlets with plugs.

Insert coding pins into the coding disk, according to the position numbers of the open outlets. 
For Position 1, a coding pin is already pre-assembled.

Place the housing on the drive unit and screw the two parts together.

2.

Screw Together the Timken C-Power with the Lubricator Distribution Block

Seal the connection thread with an appropriate sealant.

Tightly screw the Timken C-Power lubricator into the distributor.

Make sure the rear sides of the lubricator and the distributor are level. 

Attach distributor and lubricator to the mounting device using the four bores.

Connect lubricant tubes to connecting pieces. Position them between the distributor and the 
lubrication point (Ø 8 x 1.5, inner-Ø 5 mm, admissible total length per pipe up to 5 m).

Connect lubricator to the distributor using the enclosed connecting cable. The lubrication system 
must be switched off for this step.

3.

Determine the Discharge Period (refer to chapter 6.7)

Determine the required lubricant volume per one hundred operating hours, taking into account 
the number of open outlets. To arrive at the figure, multiply the lubricant volume by the number of 
open outlets.

Note: the distributor is able to supply an equal amount of lubricant up to six lubrication points. 

Determine the required discharge volume by reviewing lubricator operating instructions. The setting 
for the discharge period and the setting mode depend on the size of the C-Power LV-unit.

4.

Starting the Complete Lubrication System (refer to chapter 6)

Press the ON/OFF/SELECT button until the display no longer reads “– –“ (for OFF).

Turn on power supply. 

Automatic initialization will begin. The count of open outlets will be displayed.

After initialization is complete, the display shows the remaining volume and the lubrication system 
starts to operate.
