Grease Lubrication:
Hand-pack the bearings before assembly. Hand-packing requires that the roller elements and
bearing races be coated with grease. After assembly, add grease through the grease fitting
until grease escapes from the outboard labyrinth seal all around the shaft. Do Not Overfill.
Always rotate the shaft while adding grease to the bearing cavity.
Grease Lubrication with Purge Plug in Bottom of Bearing Carrier:
Some models (configuration B, for example) were designed with a plug (71) at the bottom of the
bearing carrier to help purge the old grease from the cavity when new grease is added.
Hand-pack the bearings before assembly. Hand-packing requires that the roller elements and
bearing races be coated with grease. After assembly, remove the purge plug before grease
is added. Add grease through the grease fitting (51) until grease is visible in the open hole.
Always rotate the shaft while adding grease to the bearing cavity.
Run the PTO 1/2 hour until excess grease drains out. Then reinstall the plug.
Note: Bearings will run hot if overfilled.
