Oscillating Hitch - Lubricate
Show/hide table
| NOTICE |
|---|
|
Check that lines attached to remote grease fittings are undamaged. If the lines are split grease will not reach the bearings or pins. Machine damage will result. The hitch bearings must be lubricated regularly. Rapid wear will result from inadequate lubrication. |
Park the machine on a level surface. Ensure that the parking brake is fully engaged. Lower the dump body and stop the engine.
If regular lubrication is carried out at the recommended interval, the fittings for the oscillating hitch pins should only take one or two shots of grease. As many as twenty shots of grease may be used in order to lubricate the bearings for the oscillating hitch.
- Install the steering frame locks. Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Steering Frame Lock".
- Before you lubricate the fittings, wipe the fittings in order to clean the fittings.
