Greasing the bearings

Greasing the bearings
The service life of bushings and pivot pins can be considerably ex-
tended, by regularly greasing the machine in the correct way.
Bearing lubrication has two main purposes:
– To add grease to the bearing to reduce friction between pin and
bushing.
– To replace old grease which may contain dirt. The grease in the
space inside the outer seal collects dirt and prevents dirt and
also water from penetrating into the bearing.
Therefore, grease the bearing until new, clean grease is forced out
through the outer seal. For recommended lubrication grease refer
to table of fuels and lubricants.
Wipe grease nipples and grease gun clean before greasing, to
keep dirt and sand out.
