Replace bearing Lubrication Notes on lubrication Beckhoff gear units from the AG3210-+NPxxx series are lubri- cated for life. The lubricant used does not have to be renewed. If you wish to change the lubricant, contact Beckhoff Service. All gear units are lubricated for life with a lithium saponified grease on a mineral oil basis or with a food-safe synthetic lubricating grease consisting of hydrocarbon oil and aluminum complex soap.
