D. Blade Shaft Bearings

The blade shaft bearings are lubricated and should not require daily lubrication under normal conditions. However, to assure long life the bearings do need to be lubricated periodically. The time interval between greasing is dependent on the running speed and operating conditions. The following chart covers most situations and can be used as a guide.
