Introduction
This manual has been assembled to assist the operator in understanding and maintaining the Lincoln
Quicklub system. It should be reviewed periodically so the operator becomes familiar with the nuances
of the lube system. The manual shows some details about a typical installations followed by system
maintenance and trouble shooting techniques.
The manual has a section that shows how our progressive lube system operates. A schematic diagram
shows how the lube progresses from the pump to the primary valves, then to the secondary valves and
finally to the bearing points.
When a Lincoln lube system is installed, quality and system robustness is the number one priority.
Quicklub lubrication systems are proven to increase the life of pins and bushings, and decrease labor
costs associated with manual lubrication. When a system is installed, items such as machine
articulation, type of material machine handles, climate, and other operating conditions that could
damage the system are taking into consideration.
Benefits From Automatic Lubrication
• Gain 30 to 45 minutes per day of increased productivity for each machine by lubricating while
machine is in service.
• Improve bearing life and reduce maintenance downtime due to repairing damaged bearings.
• Reduce bearing wear by delivering smaller, more frequent amounts of grease to each bearing.
• Reduce grease consumption by delivering the required amount of grease.
• Improve safety by eliminating the daily practice of climbing all over machinery to lubricate
bearings. This can be extremely difficult in severe weather conditions.
The Lincoln Quicklub Pump
Designed for the harsh environment of the construction markets, Quicklub pumps are loaded with
features:
• Available in 12, 24 VDC and 120 VAC.
• Capable of dispensing #2 grease (oil systems available)
• Optional low-level alarms and system operation alarms with warning lights in the cab.
• Reservoir (2-, 4-, 8- or 15-Liter) can be refilled through a grease fitting, typically every 150-300
hours of operation.
• All pumps have high-pressure capability to ensure grease is delivered to each component.
• A blocked lube point can be detected at the pump or in the cab with the optional alarm and
warning light. A buzzer can also be added as an alarm.
• Pump controls run-time and built-in-timer.
• Data Logger models available that store information on system operation history and can be
connected to “Produce Link/GPS” to remotely notify if the system requires service.
