LUBRICATION AND OIL FILLING INSTRUCTIONS
Oil flow and circulation in a gear box is one of the most
important features to give all internal parts the maximum
life. The Durst pump drive design incorporates several key
features from previous designs. ISO-LUBE is no longer
necessary due to strategically placed oil ports and ribs.
When filled to the proper level, oil will be circulated within
the box to each set of bearings, and across all the pump
splines for smooth operation. Because the pump spline
adapters and the input shaft are exposed to the oil
within the pump drive, do not apply grease or any type of
corrosion prevention materials to the splines, as these will
contaminate the gear box oil.
All Durst pump drives are shipped without oil. Verify that
the drain plug is tightened to 50ft.lbs.
1) Fill pump drive gear box to MAX oil level on dipstick
or to the oil level plug.
DO NOT over fill, as this will result in
overheating and possible failure of the pump drive!
2) It is recommended to change oil after the first 500
hours or 3 months of service, which ever occurs first.
Thereafter, and under normal operating conditions
Durst recommends that the oil be changed every 1000
hours or 6 months of service.
3) Stop engine before attempting to check or add oil.
4) Clean around dipstick and oil fill hole before
checking or adding oil.
5) Drain oil while the unit is still warm.
Hot oil can cause severe burns. Use
extreme care when removing lubrication plugs and
vents!
6) Inspect and clean magnetic drain plug for
contamination or metal particles before replacing.
OIL CAPACITY
The following charts indicate the quantity of oil that a NEW
box requires. When changing the oil some residual is
left in the box, this will require less oil to fill the box than
what is shown below. Only fill to the MAX oil level on
the dipstick or to the oil level plug otherwise overheating
may occur.
Maximum Operating oil temp for all standard oils:
210°F (99°C)
Maximum Operating oil temp for all synthetic oils:
250°F (121°C)
