Checking the lubrication system

    HINT
    • In case of downtimes of 1 to 4 weeks before commissioning, as a minimum check the lubricating film on guideways and racks (II) and the hydraulic lines for air bubbles and kinks (VII). If necessary, carry out a check of the complete lubrication system.
    • As operator, check the lubrication system during initial commissioning, after downtimes of more than 4 weeks, if there is no lubricating film and after the cartridge or pump of the lubrication system has been replaced.
      The operator is always responsible for adequate and properly functioning lubrication.
