Lubricator Service Interval
The Automatic lubricator should be inspected approximately
every 6 months. At the end of the lubrication period the pis-
ton becomes clearly visible through the clear nylon discharge
indicator cap located at the bottom of the PERMA® canister
(Figure 1); this helps indicate that the lubricant has been fully
discharged at which time the lubricator should be replaced.
When operating the gear unit 8 hours/day or less a replace-
ment interval of 12 months or 1 year is possible. Ambient
temperature will influence the discharge rate and may ex-
tend or shorten the replacement interval.
Ambient Considerations
The grease discharge rate is affected by the ambient tem-
perature. PERMA® indicates that the lubricator contents will
dispense for a 12 month period when the average tempera-
ture is 20 °C (68 °F). Grease dispensing rates depend primarily
on average ambient conditions and not extreme highs and
lows. Lower ambient temperatures will lead to slower dis-
pensing rates and higher ambient temperatures will lead to
faster dispensing rates.

Values are approximate.
Discharge can also be influenced by type of lubricant, vi-
bration, and by the mating connecting parts in the lubrica-
tion system.
Activating the Automatic Lubricator
1. Loosen and remove the M8x16 assembly socket head cap
screws (1251).
2. Carefully remove the protective cover (1252) installed over

3. Screw the activation screw (1250-2) into the automatic
lubricator (1250-1) and twist the ring-eyelet until it
reaches its breaking point.
