10. Maintenance Maintenance Regular and appropriate maintenance is a prerequisite to detect and clear faults in time. The specific timelines have to be determined, verified at regular intervals and adapted, if necessary, by the operator based on the operating conditions. If needed, copy the table for regular mainte- nance activities.
11. Troubleshooting Troubleshooting Fig. 26 Fault table 1 In addition to the indications regarding troubleshooting stated here, observe all indications regarding troubleshooting stated in the lubrication pump instructions. To check the individual outlets you may have to run the lubrication pump for a longer period of time as the single outlets are provided with lubricant one after the other and thus there may be required several cycles of the upstream metering device.
