Section 4:
Lubrication & Maintenance
4.1 lubrication &
maintenance Introduction
You should familiarize yourself with the location of
all components that require frequent adjustments
and lubrication in order to include them in your
maintenance schedule. There are unique lubricant
specifications for some components and frequent
intervals to check and add lubricants in order to
achieve the longest reliable life cycle of your unit.
In this section you will find all of the information
you need to build a comprehensive and adequate
maintenance routine for your Rumble Hog.
NOTICE:
IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO SHOW ALL VALVES, HINGES,
LATCHES AND SAFETY PINS ON THE LUBRICATION CHARTS.
RELATED ITEMS NOT SHOWN SHOULD ALSO BE INCLUDED
IN YOUR MAINTENANCE ROUTINE.
Some of the components used in assembling your
RH7500 were manufactured by other companies.
Their operations manuals have been supplied
along with the delivery of your unit. If you do
not have a copy on hand you may request a copy
from the manufacturer or from Hog Technologies
Customer Support Department. You should read
all related manuals and reference their specifica
-
tions. You may find overlap in the specifications
provided in this manual and the original equipment
manufacturer’s manual. If you find a discrepancy
between the two you should follow the Original
Equipment Manufacturer’s recommendations es-
pecially if they are more frequent or more strin-
gent specifications.
As a courtesy to our customers, we have provided
a chart in this section called The Maintenance
Matrix. This chart serves as a quick reference
guide and attempts to identify all components that
need maintenance as related to lubrication and
adjustments. While we have made every effort to
ensure that the information we give is accurate
and complete it is also true that constant improve-
ments are being made to the equipment models
we build and sometimes there is a lag between the
design change and the manual update. The service
intervals we provide in the Maintenance Matrix
are meant to meet or exceed OEM specifications
but no guarantee is expressed or implied. Hog
Technologies will not be held liable for damages
or loss of service due to the use of the informa-
tion contained in the Maintenance Matrix. It is the
responsibility of the equipment owner to design a
maintenance program that meets or exceeds the
unique requirements of the components used in
the RH7500.
Each procedure has been carefully thought
through with each step building upon the previ-
ous step in the same manner as our technicians
are trained to perform it. We recommend that you
follow the process as prescribed in the text and
as shown in the pictures.
Routine Maintenance refers to procedures that are
expected to occur immediately prior to and during
work shifts. Routine maintenance ensures that
the machine is functioning properly and expects
that some parts will wear out and need replaced
as a normal part of the operations. Examples
are greasing, replacing protectors, and replacing
teeth.
Scheduled Maintenance refers to procedures that
are to be carried out at prescribed intervals at the
work shop. These intervals are typically longer and
more predictable. Examples include Hydraulic Oil,
Drum Bearings, etc..
Keep in mind that environmental conditions may
alter lubricant specifications and maintenance
intervals. For example; extreme cold weather and
hot weather may require alternating fluids; Hot,
dry and dusty environments may affect greasing
intervals, etc..
CAUTION
THE MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES IN THIS SECTION MUST BE
FOLLOWED EXACTLY TO AVOID DAMAGING COMPONENTS
AND/OR VOIDING THE WARRANTY.
