Greasing frequency

NOTE

Do not over grease bearings. Overfi lling can lead to
excessive heat and/or unseating of the seals. Add
grease slowly and under light pressure. Whenever
possible, rotate bearing slowly while lubricating.

Lubricate the machine periodically with a lithium-based
grease. Extreme working conditions will require more
frequent greasing.

Repack the wheel bearings with grease after every 20-25
hours of use (see Figure 6):
