6.12- Lubrication

Proper and regular lubrication is indispensable to guarantee a good performance
and durability to the machine.
The indicated intervals take into account their use under normal working
conditions. In severe conditions, the intervals should be reduced.
Periodic inspections and the use of clean and quality lubricants are recommended.
Oils and lubricating greases contain additives which, in some situations, can be
harmful to health. When using lubricants, it is important to:

Oil can cause skin damage.
ƒ Protect the skin with suitable gloves.

provided by law. Never spill it into the
environment!
ƒ Get medical attention if skin irritation
develops after use of lubricating oils or
greases.
ƒ The use of PPE (safety gloves, goggles)
when lubricating the machine is mandatory.
6.12.1- Grease lubrication

the grease fittings to avoid grease
