TRAILER WHEEL BEARINGS
The trailer axles are equipped with a grease zerk fitting to allow lubrication of the wheel bearings without the need
to disassemble the axle hub. To lubricate the axle bearings, remove the small rubber plug on the grease cap, attach
a standard grease gun fitting to the grease zerk fitting and pump grease into the fitting until new grease is visible
around the nozzle of the grease gun. Use only a high quality grease made specifically for lubrication of wheel bearings.
Wipe any excess grease from the hub with a clean cloth and replace the rubber plug when finished. The minimum
recommended lubrication is every 12 months or 12,000 miles (19,312 km). More frequent lubrication may be required
under extremely dusty or damp operating conditions.
LOWER RADIATOR HOSE HEATER OPTION - USE AND MAINTENANCE
Improper use of the lower radiator hose heater could result in damage to the engine or
personal injury. Do not modify the location of the lower radiator hose heater.
The following points should be followed when operating a unit equipped with a lower radiator hose heater.
•
Ensure the cooling system is full of the proper mixture of water and engine coolant before each heater use.
•
The heater is designed for all-night operation, however, 2-5 hours of heating just prior to starting is usually
sufficient for proper engine starting.
•
The unit must be level to maintain proper orientation of the heater while it is in operation.
•
Use only an undamaged, outdoor rated, three-prong grounded 120VAC extension cord with a minimum
amperage rating of 10A. Connect the cord to a properly grounded 120VAC, GFCI receptacle.
•
Before starting the engine, unplug the extension cord from the power first, then unplug the heater cordset
from the extension cord.
