GENERAL GREASE POINTS
Regular greasing not only greatly improves the service life of the bushes, it also will remove
any moisture which may cause internal corrosion on the wall of the bosses making it difficult
to remove the pivot shafts for inspection.
LUBRICATION SPECIFICATIONS
We recommend only using premium quality grease. Experience has shown that a Lithium
based grease offers very good performance. For the slew ring the RENOLIT ARMNA
G4789 from Fuchs offers extremely good lubrication and anti corrosion properties.
Especially at very low temperatures (-30DegC)

SLEW DRIVE
To grease the slew ring you must set
the machine up and slew around so
you can gain access to the reas-
sessed grease nipple fitted to the top
face of the slew ring.
When greasing the worm housing
take care not to push out the oil seal
on the end face. If you do, remove
excess grease from the end and drive
the seal back in.. See Slew Drive
Gear section for more details.
