7.6 Weekly maintenance
7.6.1 Feed unit drive (lubrication)
The feed unit drive and the bearing must be lubricated twice a week with
the feed unit running slowly until grease escapes at the relief bore at the
outlet side of the machine. Use only high-performance grease which is
safe for food use and which is resistant to cleaning agents and
disinfectants.
• To do so, connect the grease gun supplied to the left-hand lubricating
nipple (1) at the outlet side of the machine and pump several full
strokes with the feed unit running until clean grease escapes from
relief bore (2).
• Then remove the grease which has escaped.
• If no grease at all escapes at the relief bore, inform VEMAG Customer
Service and have the drive/bearing checked.
