Lubrication
Greasing pivot points prevents wear and helps restrict
dirt from entering. However, once dirt does enter a
bearing, it combines with the lubricant and becomes an
abrasive grinding paste, more destructive than grit alone.
• Apply new lubricant frequently during operation to
ush out old contaminated lubricant.
• Use a good grade of lithium based grease.
• Use a good grade of machine oil.
• Clean grease ttings and lubricator gun before
applying lubricant.
Refer to the photos for grease tting locations.
