Drum Head Seals, Countershaft Bearing Lubrication

MS15H/MS15E MIXER — MAINTENANCE (MIXER)

Drum Head Seals

There is 1 set of drum head seals (Figure 15) that will require lubrication.

	CAUTION	IMPORTANT- DRUM HEAD
	CAUTION	SEAL CARE

Grease seals every 40 hours of operation using any grade #1 lithium base grease. Apply grease until visible of mixing tub (over grease).This will purge seal system of contamination.

CAUTION	Grease Fittings

Failure to lubricate the drum bearing grease fittings periodically will cause the dumping mechanism to stiffen, making the mixing drum hard to dump.

Countershaft Bearing Lubrication

There is 1 set of countershaft bearings (Figure 17) that will require lubrication. Lubricate the grease fitting for each countershaft bearing every 40 hours of operation using any grade lithium base grease.

Drum Bearing Bracket Lubrication

There is 1 set of drum bearing brackets (Figure 16) that will require lubrication. These brackets are intended to make the drum rotate freely. Lubricate the grease fitting for each drum bearing bracket every month or when the drum becomes difficult to position using multi-purpose grade grease.

Grease Fittings (Zerk) Maintenance (Electric Motor)

1.There are two grease (Figure 18) fittings at each end of the electric motor that will require lubrication. Lubricate these fittings about every 16 months.

2.Use Poleyrex EM (Exxon Mobil) or equalivant lubricant. Clean grease fitting, apply grease gun to fitting (1/2 shot). Remember too much grease or injecting grease too quickly can cause premature bearing failure. Slowly apply the recommended amount of grease, taking a miniute or so to apply.
