Clean all mud, salt, and road grime
from the step before lubricating.
Lubricate all moving parts (bearings,
pivot points, slides, clevis pin, and drive
linkage ball) every 30 days with a good
quality moisture and heat resistant
penetrating grease. KwikLubeTM Spray
Grease is specially formulated to
lubricate Kwikee Electric Steps and is
recommended for lubricating all moving
parts. Refer to the figures below for
lubrication locations.
NOTE: Silicone lubricants and WD-40
are not recommended as they have a
tendency to evaporate and dry the
mating surfaces which leave them
vulnerable to the elements.
1. Figures 1 & 3 - square shaft
bearing - lubricate around outside and
under head of bearing.
2. Figure 4 - on step models
equipped with plastic cover, this cover
will have to be removed to lubricate
center bearings. Lubricate bearings
under cover every 90 days.
3. Figure 4 - Lubricate around the
bushing-in-bushings.
4. Maintain clean, dry electrical
connections at the two-way and four-
way connectors and any butt
connections leading from the four-
connector to the vehicle. A small dab of
di-electric grease at the connections and
replacing corroded butt connections with
heat shrink type crimp style automotive
connectors will help maintain a good
electrical source for the step.
NOTE: Figures are to be used for general reference purposes only. Some may not
pertain to your particular step model.
KwikLube
TM
is a unique aerosol
grease that has hundreds of
automotive, household, and
industrial uses in addition to
lubricating Kwikee Electric Steps.
It sprays on and into hard to reach
places. KwikLube
changes from a
penetrating fluid to a tough,
protective grease in a matter of
minutes! The cured film is
impervious to moisture and can
withstand temperatures above
400° F (204° C). This formulation
also contains additives to prevent
rust and reduce wear.
