4.9 GREASABLE BEARINGS
Mounted bearing are pre-lubricated at our factory and are
ready for operation.
RELUBRICATION:
Relubrication of bearings is determined by operating condi-
tions and environment. Lubricate standard bearings with a
LITHIUM based grease. Greasing intervals and quantities
are shown on the next page using the following symbol:
GREASING INVTERVALS:
Bearings in extreme environments will require more fre-
quent greasing invervals.
GREASE FILL AMOUNTS:
It is preferred that experience dictate fill amounts due to
wide variances in applications, greasing equipment and
operating conditions. The quantities shown on the next
page are recommended amounts. In most cases, it is best
to lubricate in small amounts, under low pressure, until a
thin bead of fresh greas is visible at the seal lip area.
Care should be taken when greasing bearings to avoid
overfilling. Overfilling can lead to excessive heat and/or un-
seating of the seals. Grease should be introduced in small
amounts and under light pressure. Whenever possible, the
bearing should be rotated slowly while grease is added to
ensure equal distribution throughout the raceways.
The truckloader model described in this manual has one
greaseable bearing that requires greasing. Refer to Figure
4.2 for greasing location, interval and quantity.
