SERVICE & MAINTENANCE
WARNING
BEFORE INSPECTING OR SERVICING ANY PART OF THIS MACHINE, SHUT OFF POWER SOURCE,
AND MAKE SURE ALL MOVING PARTS HAVE COME TO A COMPLETE STOP.
5.14 LUBRICATION
Polyurea and lithium-based greases are not
compatible. Mixing the two grease types may lead to
premature failure.
WARNING
Do not over grease bearings. Overfilling can lead to
excessive heat and/or unseating of the seals. Add
grease slowly and under light pressure. Whenever
possible, rotate bearing slowly while lubricating.
NOTE
Lubricate the machine periodically with a lithium-based
grease. Extreme working conditions will require more
frequent greasing.
Grease the following points every 50-100 hours of
operating time:
