When relubricating: 
T
o distribute the grease filling uniformly in the bearing, observe the following: 
a) Grease filling: Add in several partial quantities during operation (at least 3 
or in more parts). 
b) Operate the drive for at least 3 minutes between the individual filling 
operations. 
Note: 
The grease must spread evenly in the bearings, which is achieved by 
turning the machine in between filling. 
 
Filling of uncontrolled lubricant quantities without redistribution through 
bearing rotary movements may cause damage to the bearing and sealing 
systems! 
Use the specified lubricating grease only.  
If other greases are used the: 
•  Lubricating ability may degrade. 
•  Grease ducts may harden. 
•  Bearings may become damaged. 
 
THYSSENKRUPP AUFZUGSWERKE GmbH will not be held liable for 
damage resulting from the use of non-approved lubricants.
