11.6.4 Lubricating chains, sprockets and gear wheels
This group includes the following
locations on the machine:
1.
Feed roller chain drive
2.
Feed belt chain drive
3.
Discharge conveyor chain drive
Proceed as follows:
• Remove guards and components, as necessary, to expose the
drive. (See § AP.A-P5)
• Wipe away all traces of lubricant in and around the drive.
• Use penetrating oil containing molybdenum disulphide
(MoS
2
) to dissolve the lubricant.
• When the drives are clean and all traces of grease and dirt have
been removed, you can apply new lubricant.
• Use a small brush to apply the lubricant to the teeth of the
gears. Use Sunoco Multi Purpose Grease or a product of the same
quality.
• It is better to use a thin liquid lubricant that can penetrate into
the chains. For this, ELIET recommends Clear Lube lubricant spray
from Novatio.
• After applying the lubricant, carefully refi t the components and
guards in order to keep out dust and dirt as much as possible.
(See § AP.A-P5)
All these greases are available from your ELIET Dealer.
