Whenever possible, the lubricant should be applied at the
top of a bend in the rope, because at that point the strands
are spread by bending and are more easily penetrated.
There should be no load on the rope while it is being
lubricated. The service life of wire rope is directly
proportional to the effectiveness of the method used and
amount of lubricant that reaches the working parts of the
rope.
