Lubrication Instructions
Any special lubricating instructions for vendor equipment in the high pressure water jetting
units are covered in the MANUFACTURERS' LITERATURE section in this manual.
Manufacturer's recommendations set forth for this equipment must be followed for that
equipment.
Unless specified otherwise, service intervals specified are for operating hours in moderate
temperatures. Adjust service intervals accordingly for operation in abnormal conditions.
The suggested lubrication instructions and service intervals are for illustration purposes only.
NLB does not warrant that adherence to these suggestions will necessarily result in proper
lubrication. NLB disclaims any responsibility for equipment and/or accessory failure that is
due to the lack
of
or improper lubrication. NLB suggests that you consult with your
lubrication supplier for recommendations that will suit your specific requirements.
Note:
Manufacturer's nameplate data take precedent over the following suggestions.
Drain lubricating oil only when
it
is
hot
and
the contaminants are
in
suspension.

Engine
Crankcase
If
the high pressure water jetting equipment is in service, under no circumstances can the
lubricating oil drain interval extend beyond three (3) months or
250 hours.

For anti-friction bearings, use any high grade lithium base grease lubricant that can handle a
high operating temperature
of
200°F (93.3 °C).
Caution:
To
avoid
dirt
filled from being injected
into
the bearings, clean
off
the grease
fittings
before
connecting
the grease gun.
The bronze type collar design needs lubrication daily or after every 10 hours
of
operation.
The ball bearing type needs to be periodically lubricated every
100 hours
of
operation. The
sealed-for-life type ball bearing collar needs no lubrication.
