The grease must have the following characteristics:

NLGI Grade 2

(Recommended: Shell Alvania® #71125)

Lithium-based

Water-insoluble

Anti-rusting

Anti-oxidizing

Mechanically stable

The grease must have adequate base oil viscosity with one of the following ratings:

ISO VG 150 (135 – 165 cSt at 40°C or 709 – 871 SUS at 100°F)

ISO VG 220 (198 – 242 cSt at 40°C or 1047 – 1283 SUS at 100°F)

An SAE 40 rating is also acceptable as long as cSt or SUS values are within specified ranges.

WARNING

Never mix grease types (Ex. Silicon, Petroleum, Lithium, Poly-Urea)! Never use any grease other than that specified at the grease fittings on the machine. Doing so may cause premature bearing failure and void any applicable warranties.

If machine is fitted with SKF System 24® automatic lubricators, check that they are functioning by noting piston position each month. Set them to dispense their contents over 12 months for all machine models.

Always mark new lubricators with installation date.

2.Remove rear service panel and inspect drive belts for uneven wear, frayed edges or cracking. Push on belts and make sure motor can move about its pivot point (this ensures belts are automatically being tensioned correctly).
