Maintenance and Lubrication
• Pinch point hazard: to prevent injury, stand clear when raising or lowering any part of the Veris
MSP. Disengage automatic cycling function before working around unit. Install all transport locks
before transporting or working underneath.
Lubrication
Rockshaft pivot points
– Each pivot (located at the left and right) contains an upper and lower grease
zerk. Due to the limited motion of the rockshaft, these should be lubricated on 20-hour intervals.
This may vary based on the number of times the unit is raised and lowered.

-Completely wash clean after each field: face, glass, lower body that is in soaker solution
