■ GEAR CASE
There is a grease nipple for filling lubricant on the gear housing.
Use a grease gun to fill with grease.
Use Shell Gadus S2 V220AC2 grease.
IMPORTANT
The gear housing must not be filled completely with grease. The
grease expands as the machine heats up during operation. If the
gear housing was completely filled with grease it could damage
the seals and lead to leakage of grease.
The grease in the gear house does not normally need to be
changed except if repairs are carried out.
