MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
DAILY MAINTENANCE
• C2C/C2D, C3D, C4C, C6C, C8C, C10C, and C12C Compactor/Drivers use oil
lubrication for the bearings, which may require semi-annual maintenance.
• C2, C4/C4A/C4B, C6/C6B, and C8/C8B Compactor/Drivers must be manually
greased. Using a grease gun (t37), lubricate each roller bearing (hm31) with the
required quantity of grease, per the chart below. If the bearing temperature
exceeds 160°F (68°C), the bearings should be greased more often. Use general
purpose bearing grease NLG1 grade 2 with EP additive.
• Periodically check all fasteners and tighten as needed. The hydraulic motor bolts
require thread adhesive.
• Periodically check rubber mounts for deterioration or cracking. Wash oil or grease
from the rubber surface.
• Oil leakage out of the eccentric housing (lower frame) vent is an indication of
hydraulic motor shaft seal failure.
NOTE: C2, C4, C4A, C6 and C8 models do not have vents or drain plugs.
• Inspect eccentric (roller) bearings if they become noisy. Noisy bearings could be
an indication of insufficient lubrication.
• Do not operate the Compactor/Driver if the carrier hydraulic reservoir temperature
exceeds 180°F (80°C).
