Lubrication Chart Notes
1 Spring hanger: Use a lithium
based grease with specification
API NLGI No. 2. When lubricating
the
left and right sides of the
front springs, lift the axle off of
the floor, suspend the frame with
axle stands and lower the axle.
The spring bushings are now in
the position where grease can be
added to the contact surfaces.
Note: The rock guard will have to be
removed (if equipped).
Note: Always grease a VOLVO front
axle with the wheels on the ground.
Note: To grease non-VOLVO axles,
they are typically greased with the
wheels on the ground. Consult with
the axle manufacturer for the latest
recommendation.
2 Slack adjuster Do not grease
till 1st scheduled maintenance
interval.
Note: See Manufactures
Specifications for specific grease.
Adjust according to the specific slack
adjuster manufacturing specifications.
2A Brake cam Use a lithium based
grease with EP additives to
specification API NLGI No .2.
Note: If the brake cam seal does not
purge, make sure the inner seal does
not purge into the brake drum and
onto the brake linings.
3 Steering gear: Use a lithium
