CAUTION
Do not install an elastomeric mount without the use of an approved lubricant. Installation without an approved lubricant can produce tears in the mount, resulting in substandard operational performance and service life.
9)Support the elastomeric mount, socket and mounting plate as depicted in FIGURE 50. The mounting plate must be suspended from the arbor press to allow the mount to clear when the pressing process is completed. A short section of

13)Check to determine that the replacement elastomeric mounts allow for proper position of the aluminum multi- accessory disc. If the elastomeric mounts are not properly positioned, they will require removal and reinstallation. The removal process can produce tears and abrasions in the mount that will require new replacements.
MAINTENANCE/SERVICE
LUBRICATION REQUIREMENTS
Parts Required:
1 each, standard grease gun filled with one of the following: ESSO Beacon 325, Shell Alvania #2, Chevron SRI, or equivalent.
1 each, container of dry film lubricant.
1)Lubricate the caster wheel bearings with a dry film lubricant only. Dry film lubricants dry immediately upon contact. Use sparingly. Excess lubricant will attract the fine grained, powdered materials described and directly affect bearing service life.
CAUTION
Do not lubricate the caster wheels with any type of grease material. Grease will attract foreign material accumulations that can accelerate bearing wear.
2)The transmission gears are supported by extra capacity, ball bearing units. Bearings are lubricated at the time of manufacture and do not require additional servicing when placing the unit in initial service. Zerk grease fittings can promote improper service schedules and an excessive amount of over lubrication. Excess grease escaping from around the bearing insert seals will attract foreign material accumulations that can drastically shorten their service life. Excessive amounts of grease in the bearing race cavity can actually increase friction and resulting heat increases that can also dramatically shorten bearing service life.
