GREASE - the following items should be regularly lubricated with a lithium based gun grease. A sodium-
based grease is water-soluble and could be washed away by rain / cleaning down, whereas a lithium-based
grease is not.
Boom pendulum Break-Back
Boom hinges Front axle tripod bearing
Rear axle Front axle
Ram clevis pin Roger rail roller pins
Boom adjusters Cylinder ball ends
The 'Suction' and 'Pressure' rotary taps should be lubricated with just 'ONE' pump of a silicon based gun
grease 'ONCE' per year. Over lubrication of these taps will destroy the seals and render the taps
inoperable.
LUBRICATING OIL - An SAE 30-grade mineral oil should be used to lubricate:
Imovilli Spray pumps
LUBRICATING OIL - Shell Tellus 37 Oil should be used to lubricate:
Air system (also see section on Air System)
ENGINE - Please refer to the Deutz Operating Manual for lubrication information.
HYDRAULIC OIL - Only a good quality hydraulic oil type HV46 that conforms to AFNOR NF 48600 or ISO
3448 - CETOP RP 75 is suitable.
ANY OTHER GRADE OR SPECIFICATION OF OIL WILL CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE
TRANSMISSION SYSTEM.
A Universal oil is NOT ACCEPTABLE.
SAM Ltd cannot emphasize enough how important it is to use the correct grade of hydraulic oil (HV46) in
the machine.
This machine was supplied filled with a high quality HV46 oil.
Many oil companies now run a regular testing service for their customers and we, as a company, would
advocate its use. We would recommend an oil sample be taken from the tank – not drain oil from the
filters during the filter change operation – analysed and the findings noted. Potential failures could then be
identified at an early stage.
