4.13.10.4 Regreasing roller bearings after storage periods of between two and four years
● For machines
with regreasing system, lubricate machines immediately after commissioning
while the machine is running with approximately twice the grease quantity. This causes the
old grease to be spun out.
● Then regrease the bearings with the amount of bearing grease specified on the lubricant
plate.
Note
Increased bearing noise
Increased bearing noise can occur while the bearings are being run in The bearing noise is
not dangerous,
if the operating temperature has not yet been reached and the noise is caused
by the viscosity and the dynamic viscosity of the bearing grease.
4.13.10.5 Releasing the rotor shipping brace before commissioning
