A combination of safe, careful handling and regular maintenance will greatly increase
the likelihood of long, dependable service of the Telescoping Driveshaft.
We urge you to adhere to the following maintenance guidelines:
INSPECTING AND LUBRICATING THE DRIVESHAFT
To keep the GO-E2 Opener operating smoothly and economically, the Driveshaft must
be carefully inspected at regular intervals. Problems are caused by such things as loose
end yokes, excessive radial (side-to-side, or up-and-down) looseness, and bent shaft
tubing or bell guards.
1. Check the output and input yokes at both ends of the TDS for looseness.
2. Check the shaft for damage or bent tubing or guards. Make certain there is
no build-up of foreign material on the shaft or at the U-joints. If found, it
must be removed.
Among the most common causes of joint and slip problems is lack of proper lubrication.
Regular lubrication flushes friction surfaces, removing abrasive contaminants in addition
to reducing drag and heat build-up.
For normal use, use a good quality Lithium Soap base extreme pressure (EP) grease
meeting National Lubricating Grease Institute (N.L.G.I.) Grades 1 or 2 specifications
(Typical: SHELL Super Duty), can be used for both the U-joints and telescoping
members.
IMPORTANT
There are access ports and Zerk-type grease
fittings to simplify lubrication procedures.
