Lubrication Maintenance
1. Table 4-1 specifies the lubrication points and
intervals on the 2211 Disc Chisel. Proper
maintenance of your machine will, under normal
operating conditions, help to keep it operating at or
near its peak performance for an extended period of
time. Proper maintenance is also a condition of
keeping your warranty in good status (See
Figure 4-15.)
2. When lubricating the Disc Chisel, SAE multi-purpose
EP grease, or EP grease with 3-5% molybdenum
sulfide is recommended. Wipe soil from fittings
before greasing. Replace any lost or broken fittings
immediately.
3. Disc gang bearings are equipped with triple-lip seals
that will let grease pass and not harm the seal.
Regular lubrication will maintain a full grease cavity
and help purge any contaminants. Grease the
bearings before long periods of storage to prevent
moisture buildup within the bearing cavity.
4. Wheel seals and walking tandem seals, when
properly installed, will allow grease to pass without
harm to seals. Regular lubrication will extend service
life, particularly in severe operating conditions.
5. The Disc Chisel is equipped with maintenance-free
bearings in the lifts and leveler. These areas require
no lubrication.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
Storage
1. The service life of the Disc Chisel will be extended by
proper off-season storage practices. Prior to storing
the unit, complete the following procedures:
a. Completely clean the unit.
b. Inspect the machine for worn or defective parts.
Replace as needed.
c. Repaint all areas where the original paint is worn
off.
d. Grease all exposed metal surfaces of shanks,
points and discs.
e. Apply a light coating of oil or grease to exposed
cylinder rods to prevent them from rusting.
f.
Lubricate each point of the machine as stated in
"Lubrication Maintenance" on page 4-17.
2. Store the unit in a shed or under a tarpaulin to protect
it from the weather. The ground tools and tires should
rest on boards, or some other object, to keep them
out of the soil.
3. If the unit must be stored outside, unfold the Disc
Chisel to prevent moisture buildup in the disc gang
and wheel bearings.
4. If the unit is stored in the folded position, make sure
the transport lock pins are installed to prevent wing
frames settling.
5. Slide the rear jack tube from transport position and
into slot from bottom of rear jack mount. Pin jack tube
in position. Attach jack to rear jack tube and pin in
position. Crank jack until the rear of the machine is
supported (See Figure 4-16.)
