Maintenance And Lubrication Schedule - Braun Century 2 NCL Series Service Manual

Maintenance and Lubrication Schedule

Proper maintenance is necessary to ensure safe,
troublefree operation. Inspecting the lift for any wear,
damage or other abnormal conditions should be a part
of the transit agency daily service program. Simple
inspections can detect potential problems.
The maintenance and lubrication procedures specified
in this schedule must be performed by a Braun autho-
rized service representative at the scheduled intervals
according to the number of cycles.
Braun dual parallel arm lifts are equipped with hard-
ened pins and self-lubricating bushings to decrease
wear, provide smooth operation and extend the service
life of the lift.
When servicing the lift at the recommended inter-
vals, inspection and lubrication procedures specified
in the previous sections should be repeated. Clean
components and the surrounding area before apply-
ing lubricants. LPS2 General Purpose Penetrating
Oil is recommended where Light Oil is called out.
Use of improper lubricants can attract dirt or other
contaminants which could result in wear or damage
to the components. Platform components exposed to
contaminants when lowered to the ground may require
extra attention.
Lift components requiring grease are lubricated during
assembly procedures. When these components are
replaced, grease must be applied during installation
procedures. Specified lubricants are available from
The Braun Corporation (part numbers provided on
previous page).

All listed inspection,
lubrication and main-
tenance procedures
should be repeated at
750 cycle intervals fol-
lowing the scheduled
4500 cycle maintenance
procedures. These
intervals are a general
guideline for scheduling
maintenance procedures
and will vary according
to lift use and conditions.
Lifts exposed to severe
conditions (weather,
environment, contamina-
tion, heavy usage, etc.) may require inspection and
maintenance procedures to be performed more often
than specified.
Cycle Counter: NCL-2 Series lift models are
equipped with a cycle counter located on the top of
the pump module. This cycle counter allows the lift
attendant/operator to easily track the number of cycles
during daily inspections of the lift.
Discontinue lift use immediately if maintenance and
lubrication procedures are not properly performed,
or if there is any sign of wear, damage or improper
operation. Contact your sales representative or call
The Braun Corporation. One of our national Product
Support representatives will direct you to an authorized
service technician who will inspect your lift.
