GREASING SCHEDULE & LOCATION
BLADE SPINDLE GREASING
:
The top bearing on all spindle assemblies has a shield only. This allows grease to exit
and relieves any pressure build up inside spindle housing, when greasing. Greasing of
blade spindles should continue until grease can be seen exiting between the top bearing
and the bottom of hub on pulley. Some working conditions will require this operation
to take place every 4 to 5 running hours because of hot working areas. Cooler working
areas will only require greasing every 8 to 10 hours. A proper greasing schedule can
only be determined by operator, depending on working conditions in your particular
area.
