INSTRUCTIONS FOR AUTOMATIC CHAIN OILER
WARNING: DISCONNECT PTO DRIVE
SHAFT AND HYDRAULIC HOSES (RELIEVE
HYDRAULIC PRESSURE) BEFORE CLEANING,
ADJUSTING, LUBRICATING OR SERVICING THIS
SPREADER. FAILURE TO HEED MAY RESULT IN
SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
The automatic chain oiler attachment gives a squirt of
clean oil to all roller chains every time that the
spreaders rear gate, hydraulic cylinder is activated. In
this way, the spreaders roller chains get oiled in direct
proportion to the number of hydraulic cylinder cycles
of the rear gate. This assures adequate lubrication.
New 30 weight oil, which is placed in the reservoir
tank mounted on the spreader, is all that is needed to
properly lubricate all roller chains and sprockets. The
automatic chain oiler does not use any oil from the
tractors hydraulic system. The hydraulic hose
connected to the bottom of the oiler pump only serves
to power the piston in the pump every time that the
spreaders rear gate is opened.
Should the oil reservoir tank run dry, pour about a 1/2
cup of clean 30 weight oil into the tank. Allow time for
the oil to run down into the oiler pump slowly and allow
air to escape. After thirty minutes to one hour has
passed, finish filling the reservoir tank. Make sure that
all fittings and brackets are tight when finished filling
the tank.
WARNING: HYDRAULIC FLUID ESCAPING
UNDER PRESSURE CAN HAVE SUFFICIENT
FORCE TO PENETRATE SKIN. KEEP ALL HOSES
AND CONNECTIONS IN GOOD SERVICEABLE
CONDITION. FAILURE TO HEED MAY RESULT IN
SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
While running the tractors hydraulics only, open and
close the spreaders rear gate several times. This will
cycle the hydraulic cylinder leading to the oiler pump.
Keep cycling until oil can be seen in all of the oil lines
leading to the oiler brushes. (If you experience
problems priming the oiler pump, you may need to
bleed air out of the hydraulic hose where it is
connected to the pump. Crack the fitting until oil
comes out then re-tighten.) The hydraulic cylinder that
the oiler pump is tied into is double acting and must
reach 300 PSI of pressure to actuate the pump.
When replacing oiler brushes into brush holders, use
regular 1/2”-20 nuts. Tighten nut finger tight initially as
some adjustment may be needed later. For best
results, place brush holders over top of roller chains
and directly on top of sprockets. Adjust brush holders
so oiler brushes are pushed down into the roller chain
approximately 1/2”. Carefully tighten up the 1/2”-20
nuts on the oiler brushes. DO NOT over tighten as
damage to the brush will occur. The plastic threads of
the oiler brush will crack and then break off from the
brush body.
IMPORTANT! The 5/32” oil line tubing can only be
removed from an oiler brush by pushing in on the
red plastic ring and pulling the tubing out while
holding the ring down.
The oiler pump is set at the factory to deliver the
maximum amount of oil per cycle. If less oil is desired,
loosen the jam nut on the bottom of the pump and
screw in the adjusting shaft 1/4” or approximately 5
turns. It is not recommended to screw the shaft into
the bottom of the oiler pump more than 15 turns as
this may not allow for proper lubrication of the roller
chains.
IMPORTANT! Always use new 30 weight oil. In
cold weather, use a SAE 10 or a mixture of two
parts of 30 weight oil to one part diesel fuel.
