Lubrication of the chain:
•
Lubricate the chain in an unloaded condition.
•
Apply lubricant to the shaded areas of the chain link.
•
The chain located in the chain box must also be lubricated.
•
Prior to repeated lubrication the chain must be cleaned.
•
You may vary the quantity of the lubricant and the frequency of lubrication as a function of the operating
conditions.
•
Lubricate the chain at least once every 3 months.
•
If necessary / depending on the operating conditions the lubrication intervals must be shortened.
•
Use a dry lubricant if the operating conditions are conducive to heave wear and tear (sand, emery, etc.).
