8.3 Lubrication of the XLplus and VLplus heavy-duty bearing systems
The output-side bearing is greased depending on the frame size. Initial greasing has already
been carried out.
In normal operating conditions and with low loads, the lubrication is sufficient for
approximately 25000 to 30000 operating hours.
For higher loads due to speed or temperature, schedule regreasing at shorter intervals.
