LUBRICATION
NOTE: Grease points are noted with an applicable decal.
Grease bearings and pivot points per the MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
using Chevron Ultra Duty II, Grade 2; or equivalent high-temp grease.
IMPORTANT! It is very important that grease ttings on the
broom shaft are lubricated regularly. If broom
rusts to shaft, damage to worm gear may occur
if shear pins do not break.
To prevent wheels rusting to axles, it is also
necessary to remove the wheels and grease
the axles regularly.
1. Apply medium weight (10W) oil to points shown.
2. Remove wheels and grease axles once each year.
3. Grease broom drive universal joint.
NOTE: Access is best gained from underneath machine.
4. Grease broom pivot pin.
Generally, all moving metal parts should be oiled where contact is
made with other parts. Keep oil and grease off belts, pulley grooves,
drive disc, and friction disc.
LUBRICATION NOTES:
Grease locations indicated by grease gun symbol. Use
grease ttings when present. Disassemble parts to apply
grease to moving parts when grease ttings are not
installed.
Oil locations indicated by oil can symbol. Do not allow oil to
drip onto traction drive or friction disc.
