Grease Fittings

Your DR 10 HP CHIPPER was greased at the Factory. The operator needs to lubricate the Chipper Side and Drive Side Bearings periodically.

BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE OR INSPECTION, STOP THE ENGINE, WAIT FIVE

(5)MINUTES TO ALLOW ALL MOVING PARTS TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND COOL. DISCONNECT THE SPARK PLUG WIRE, KEEPING IT AWAY FROM THE SPARK PLUG.

Supplies Needed:

•Flexible hose grease gun

•Lithium grease

•Clean cloth

•5/32" Allen Wrench

•Loctite® 243 (if needed)

1.Wipe all dirt, etc., from the grease fittings with a clean cloth (Figure 6).

2.Apply no more than three (3) pumps of quality general-purpose lithium grease with a hand- pumped grease gun to each grease fitting, one (1) on the Chipper Side Bearing, and one (1) on the Drive Side Bearing.

OVER LUBRICATION CAN ALSO DAMAGE THE BEARINGS.

3.After greasing, check the Side Bearing Collar Set Screws for tightness with a 5/32" Allen Wrench. If they are loose, reset them with Loctite® 243, obtainable at any hardware store.
