freightliner Argosy COE - 46-05 Drag Link Lubrication

TRW TAS Series
CAUTION
Apply grease to the sector shaft only with a hand-
type grease gun. See Fig. 4. Use of a high-
pressure power grease gun will supply grease too
quickly and could affect the high pressure seal,
contaminating the hydraulic fluid.
Using a hand-type grease gun, apply NLGI Grade 2
or 3 multipurpose chassis grease until it starts to
come out past the sector shaft seal.
46–05 Drag Link Lubrication
1. Using a clean rag, wipe all dirt from both drag
link grease fittings. See Fig. 5.
2. Using a pressure gun, apply clean grease at the
grease fittings until old grease is forced out of
the socket. Use multipurpose chassis grease
NLGI Grade 2 (8% 12-hydroxy lithium stearate
grease) or NLGI Grade 1 (6% 12-hydroxy lithium
stearate grease). Grade 2 is preferred.
