7.1.3 Star wheel and bottle ejector
The drive systems of the star wheel and the ejector arm needs regular lubrication.
The contact faces between the carrier (red circle) and the Geneva wheel (black circle) should be
lightly lubricated with a suitable grease; e.g. Dow Corning MOLYKOTE grease BR2 plus.
Note: it is the thin curved side of the wheel which is lubricated not the front or back.
The contact faces between the cam of the toothed pulley and the ejector arm should be lightly
lubricated with a suitable grease; e.g. Dow Corning MOLYKOTE grease BR2 plus.
