LUBRICATION POINTS
A regular frequency of lubrication must be established for all
lubrication points. Normally, this is based on component
operating time. The most efficient method of keeping track of
lube requirements is to maintain a job log indicating crane
usage. The log must use the engine hourmeter to ensure
coverage of lube points that will receive attention based on
their readings. Other lubrication requirements must be made
on a time basis, i.e. weekly, monthly, etc.
All oil levels are to be checked with the crane parked on a
level surface in transport position, and while the oil is cold,
unless otherwise specified.
On plug type check points, the oil levels are to be at the
bottom edge of the check port.
On all hoists with a check plug in the drum, the fill plug shall
be directly on top of the hoist, and the check plug level.
All grease fittings are SAE Standard unless otherwise
indicated. Grease non-sealed fittings until grease is seen
extruding from the fitting. A measure of 1 oz (0.28 kg) of EP-
MPG equals one pump on a standard 1 lb (0.45 kg) grease
gun.
Over lubrication on non-sealed fittings will not harm the
fittings or components, but under lubrication will definitely
lead to a shorter lifetime.
On sealed U-joints, care must be exercised to prevent
rupturing seals. Fill only until expansion of the seals first
becomes visible.
Unless otherwise indicated, items not equipped with grease
fittings, such as linkages, pins, levers, etc., should be
lubricated with oil once a week. Motor oil, applied sparingly,
will provide the necessary lubrication and help prevent the
formation of rust. An Anti-Seize compound may be used if
rust has not formed, otherwise the component must be
cleaned first.
Grease fittings that are worn and will not hold the grease
gun, or those that have a stuck check ball, must be replaced.
Where wear pads are used, cycle the components and
relubricate to ensure complete lubrication of the entire wear
area.
