Lubrication
Greasing the Bearings and
Bushings
Service Interval: Every 50 hours—Grease the bearings and
bushings. When operating the machine
in extremely dusty and dirty conditions,
lubricate the bearings and bushings daily.
Every 400 hours/Yearly (whichever comes
first)—Grease the rear-axle bearings
Grease specification: No. 2 lithium grease.
Important: Dusty and dirty operating conditions
could cause dirt to get into the bearings and bushings,
resulting in accelerated wear.
Note: Lubricate grease fitting immediately after every
washing, regardless of interval specified.
1. Wipe grease fitting clean so foreign matter cannot be
forced into the bearing or bushing.
2. Pump grease into the bearing or bushing.
3. Wipe up excess grease.
