5.6 TRAILER LUBRICATION
Trailer lubrication should be performed with the aid of a manually or foot operated grease
gun, filled recommended grease. Before commencing work insofar as is possible remove old
grease and other contamination. Remove and wipe off excess oil or grease.
Parts, which should be lubricated with machine oil, should be wiped with dry cleaning cloth
and then a small quantity of oil should be applied to surfaces (with oil can or brush). Wipe off
excess oil.
Change of grease in hub bearings should be entrusted to specialised service points,
equipped with the appropriate tools. According to the recommendations of the axle
Manufacturer, dismantle the entire hub, remove the bearing and individual sealing rings. After
careful washing and inspection, mount lubricated elements. If necessary, bearing and seals
should be replaced with new parts. Lubrication of axle bearings shall be performed at least
once in 2 years or every 50,000 km. In the event of intensive use, lubrication should be
performed more frequently.
Empty grease or oil containers should be disposed of according to the recommendations of
the lubricant Manufacturer.
