Service jobs and parts
Grease the bearings and lubrication points
Lubrication · every year
Kverneland: lubricate according to the maintenance chart, after heavy use, and at least once a season, with 1 or 2 strokes of the gun. The chart marks points as daily (D), weekly (W) or once per season (S), but the grid itself is a drawing, so check it in your handbook. Track marker pivots are greased daily, support wheels and the fan drive weekly. Do not grease maintenance-free bearings.
| Part | Qty | Notes | Part number |
|---|---|---|---|
| Multipurpose grease | 1 | Multipurpose grease (NLGI 2 is normal). The manual gives no grade. Aztec Oils match: VOLCATEC LITHIUM EP 2 | check your handbook |
Step-by-step
- Wipe each nipple clean first.
- Give 1 or 2 strokes only. If you feel resistance on the second stroke stop, as excess grease lets dust in.
- Track marker: fold out and lower the machine, fold the marker in, then grease the two pivot points.
- Support wheels (one nipple on each side section wheel) and the fan drive (one nipple under the cover) are weekly points.
Tools: Grease gun, Rag
