Greasing
Introduction
T3-028_2
You must grease the machine regularly to keep it working
efficiently. Regular greasing will also lengthen the
machine's working life. Refer to the Service Schedule for
the correct intervals.
Note: The machine must always be greased after
pressure washing or steam cleaning.
Greasing should be done with a grease gun. Normally, two
strokes of the gun should be sufficient. Stop greasing when
fresh grease appears at the joint. Use only the
recommended type of grease. Do not mix different types of
grease, keep them separate.
In the following illustrations, the grease points are
numbered. Count off the grease points as you grease each
one. Refit the dust caps after greasing.
Note: Where applicable, refer to the manufacturers
manual for instructions on the maintenance of optional
attachments.
!MCAUTION
Waxoyl contains turpentine substitute which is
flammable. Keep flames away when applying Waxoyl.
Waxoyl can take a few weeks to dry completely. Keep
flames away during the drying period.
Do not weld near the affected area during the drying
period. Take the same precautions as for oil to keep
Waxoyl off your skin. Do not breathe the fumes. Apply
in a well-ventilated area.

Preparing the Machine for Greasing
Make the machine safe before you start a greasing
procedure. Refer to Prepare the Machine for
Maintenance.
Important: You can complete most of the greasing
procedures with the loader arm lowered. If you lift the
loader arm to get access for greasing, you must install the
maintenance strut on the loader arm.
