Lubrication

Grease Bearings according to the Lubrication Chart below. The grease zerk can be accessed without removing safety covers.

Be sure to replace Bearing covers when service is complete.

• Load Auger flange Bearings (2)

• Unload Conveyor flange Bearings (2)

• Fan pillow block bearings (2, C-models only)

IMPORTANT! In addition to these steps throughout the drying season, it is important to run the Fan, Load Auger, and Unload Conveyor about ten (10) minutes every four (4) weeks in the off-season to KEEP a protective oil film on Bearings, gears and chains. When greasing bearings use a good grade grease such as Shell Oil Co. Alvania® #2, Socony-Mobil Armvac 781, Amoco Lithium M-P, Texaco 939 Premium RB, or an equivalent (especially important for Fan bearings).
