8. Service and Maintenance
Good maintenance is your responsibility. Poor
maintenance is an invitation to trouble.
8.1 Service
By following a careful service and maintenance
program for your machine, you will enjoy many years
or trouble-free operation.
8.1.1 Greasing
Use an SAE multipurpose, high-temperature grease
with extreme pressure (EP) performance. Also
acceptable is an SAE multipurpose lithium-based
grease.
1.
Use a hand-held grease gun for all greasing.
2.
Wipe grease fitting with a clean cloth before
greasing to avoid injecting dirt and grit.
3.
If fittings will not take grease, remove and clean
thoroughly. Also clean lubricant passageway.
Replace fittings if necessary.
4.
Replace and repair grease fittings that are not
working properly immediately.
8.1.2 Servicing Intervals
See Maintenance Schedule on page 33
for service
interval information. The period recommended is based
on normal operating conditions. Severe or unusual
conditions may require more frequent lubrication.

Your machine can operate at top efficiency only if clean
lubricants are used. Use clean containers to handle all
lubricants. Store them in an area protected from dust,
moisture, and other contaminants.
