5.6.2.1 Fill the bearing frame with oil
NOTICE:
Maintain an exact oil level. If the oil level is too high, the bearing temperature can increase.
If the oil level is too low, the bearing will not be properly lubricated and could cause opera-
tional problems.
1.
Remove the oil filling plug.
2.
Pour oil into the opening.
3.
Fill until the oil level rises to the center of the oil level sight glass.

5.6.2.2 Fill the bearing frame with an optional oiler
NOTICE:
Maintain an exact oil level. If the oil level is too high, the bearing temperature can increase.
If the oil level is too low, the bearing will not be properly lubricated and could cause opera-
tional problems.
The constant level oiler is supplied loose.
1.
Unscrew the reservoir from the main body (right-threaded) and set aside.
2.
Seal the main body to the bearing frame at the connection for the constant level oiler, using
PTFE sealing tape.
3.
Tighten until the threaded boss is in a vertical position.
4.
Remove the oil filling plug near the upper side of the bearing frame.
5.
Fill with oil by pouring into the connection opening until the oil level almost reaches the middle
of the oil level sight glass in the main body.
