Observe the following when changing over to an alternative type of grease that is permitted according
to the table:
Bearings with permanent lubrication:
● Completely remove the old grease from the bearing before regreasing it.
●
Fill roller bearings completely with grease and cavities in the bearing cover only up to one
third.
Bearings with regreasing:
If complete replacement of grease and cleaning of the bearing is not possible, keep the
operating time to a minimum when different greases are mixed. To do this, thoroughly grease
the bearing when the machine is running with about twice the amount of grease until spent
grease has been removed from the greasing ducts. Then regrease 4x at intervals of ¼ of the
