General Lubrication - Eliet Major Anleitung

ELIET feels it is important to use high-quality materials because these will prolong the
life of the machines which are sometimes used in rather extreme working conditions.
Special lubricants have therefore already been used in the factory. ELIET also
recommends lubrication of the following parts on a regular basis:
bearings,
•
hinge points.
•
a. Bearing lubrication
• Put the safety net up right and fold down the
screen.
Spray some penetrating oil containing
•
molybdenum disulphide onto the bearing
bushes of the drive shaft for the blades, and
allow the oil to penetrate.
Using a cloth, remove all dirt lodged around the
•
joints of these bearings. Spray some more
penetrating oil in the joints of the bearing seal so
the oil can get into the bearings.
• Wipe away all excess spray.
• Spray Novatio White Supreme Grease in the joints of the bearing seals.
• If required, spray the complete drive shaft for the blades with penetrating oil.
As penetrating oil containing molybdenum disulphide dissolves rust, this
treatment can only be beneficial.
b. Hinge point lubrication
The hinge points include: the two hinge points on the screen, base hinge point and the
hinge points on the safety net at the output.
• First spray hinge points with penetrating oil.
Allow the oil to penetrate for a few minutes.
• Use a cloth or a wad of paper to wipe away any
old grease or dirt. Once hinge points have been
cleaned, spray Novatio White Supreme grease
into the hinge joints.
All greases listed in this manual are available from your ELIET dealer.
