Lubrication Recommendations
Carefully follow lubrication instructions on warning tags and
installation manuals furnished with the gear drive. Nameplates
are stamped with a designation for recommended lubricant,
standard is 6E.
Lubricants listed in this manual are typical ONLY and should not
be construed as exclusive recommendations. Refer to your
lubricant supplier for additional lubricants meeting the indicated
specifications. Industrial type extreme pressure (EP) gear
lubricants are the recommended lubricants for ambient
temperatures of 15°F to 125°F(-9°C to +52°C).
For drives operating outside the above temperature range refer
to “Synthetic Lubricants” paragraphs. Synthetic lubricants can
also be used in normal climates.
VISCOSITY (IMPORTANT) — The proper grades of EP Mineral
lubricants and EP Synthetic lubricants are found in Table 3. For
cold climates refer to “EP Synthetic Lubricant” paragraphs. Select a
lubricant which has a pour point at least 10°F (5.5°C) below the
expected minimum ambient starting temperature. Usable
temperature ranges can sometimes be widened if specific
application conditions are known.
Extreme Pressure (EP) Mineral Lubricants
Mineral (EP) Lubricants (Table 3) — Industrial type petroleum
based extreme pressure lubricants are preferred. The EP lubricants
currently recommended are of the sulfur-phosphorus type.
WARNING:
EP LUBRICANTS IN FOOD PROCESSING INDUSTRY
— EP lubricants may contain toxic substances and should not be

Lubricants which meet USDA “H1”
classification are suitable for food processing applications.
Extreme Pressure (EP) Synthetic Lubricants
Synthetic (EP) Lubricants (Table 3) — Polyalphaolefin type
extreme pressure lubricants are recommended for cold climate
operation, high temperature applications, extended temperature
range (all season) operation and/or extended lubricant change
intervals.
