| Figure 8. Lubrication Points & Chart |
|
Severe or unusual conditions may require more fre- quent lubrication. Some reference numbers have more than one location; be sure you lubricate all locations.
Use a lithium grease of #2 consistency with a MOLY (molybdenum disulfide) additive for all locations. Be sure to clean fittings thoroughly before attaching grease gun. When applied according to the lubrication chart, one good pump of most guns is sufficient.
Use SAE 90W gear lube in the gearbox. Fill to plug on side of gearbox.
Check gearbox daily for evidence of leakage at both seals and the gasket between the housing and cover. If leakage is noted, repair immediately. There may be a small amount of lube emitted from the vent plug; this is not considered leakage.
Overfilling the gearbox will cause the excess gear lube to blow out vent plug and ruin the belt.
