Procedure for Lubricating the SuperLube

R

Hub

1. Remove rubber plug from grease cap.

2. Place nozzle of standard grease gun onto the grease fitting found behind plug.
Nozzle must completely engage grease fitting.

3. Begin pumping new grease into fitting. The previously used grease will begin
to seep from the cap at the nozzle of the grease gun.

4. To evenly coat the bearings, spin the hub during grease application.

5. As the new grease begins to seep from the fitting, the grease gun can be removed.
Excess grease can then be cleaned up and the plug replaced in the grease cap.

NOTE: If the SuperLube

R

hubs are separated from the axle assembly, seals

MUST be replaced PRIOR to lubrication. Failure to replace the
seals before lubrication may result in contaminating the brake linings
with grease.

NOTE: Bearing should be visually inspected every 12,000 miles or annually,
whichever comes first. If water is present, grease appears old or
contaminated or if there is an insufficient amount of grease present, follow the
procedure above.
