Greasing
Bearings, greasing
The service life of bushings and pivot pins can be
extended considerably, if the machine is greased
regularly and in the correct way.
Before greasing, place the machine on horizontal
ground and extend the equipment in the front, so
that all cylinder grease points are accessible.
The greasing of bearings has two main purposes:
- Add grease to the bearing to reduce friction
between pin and bushing.
- 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 grease, see page
179
.
Wipe off grease nipples and grease gun before
greasing, so that dirt and sand is not introduced
through the grease nipples.
