Groeneveld Auto Greaser - Components
Main Grease Lines
The main grease lines leave the pump unit and
terminate at either a bank of metering units or
a single metering unit. On your system, a single
line leaves the pump unit and to a 'T' joint which
branches off to the front and rear of the machine.
Above: Main Grease Lines
IMPORTANT: The main lines from the pump unit to
the single or banks of metering units are monitored
for pressure. Should one of these lines brake or leak,
there will be a notable pressure drop in the system
and a buzzer will sound in the cabin to alert you. The
system will no longer be operating effectively and
some or all areas may not be lubricated.

Grease Nipple Lines
The grease nipple lines are the smaller lines that run
from the meter units and deliver the metered dose
of grease to the grease nipple. These are Black, Red
or Blue.
The 3 hose colours can be used if there are 3
different sized metering units in a bank. These make
it easier to trace the lines to their terminating points.

Lines
Black is used to denote the lines out of the largest
meter unit/s (based on the shims or spacers).
Red is used to denote the lines out of the smallest
meter unit/s (based on the shims or spacers).
Blue is used to denote the lines out of the
intermediate meter unit/s (based on the shims or
spacers).
IMPORTANT: These lines do not have their
pressure monitored. Should a line after its meter
unit be broken, the system will not sound the alarm
buzzer. The grease will flow out of the point of least
resistance, which is the hole or brake in the hose.
It is important to make regular inspections of these
lines to ensure they are not damaged. Also inspect
the grease point for evidence of lubrication.
