A - Shaft Plug

Check carrier rollers for leaks regularly. If shaft plug is missing, fill with oil and insert new plug, or replace roller.

  1. Park harvester on level surface.

  2. Remove shaft plug (A) and install the lubrication fitting.

  3. Attach lubrication gun nozzle and pump oil in until it comes out from around the fitting. This indicates correct level.

    NOTE: If escaping oil from around the fitting is dirty or mixed with water, keep pumping until escaping oil is completely clean.

  4. Remove the connection and reinstall plug.

An alternate way to lubricate the carrier roller is to place the machine at a 20° angle away from the shaft plug. Oil can then be fed in with an oil can or gun. Allow time for the oil to travel down the shaft and out into the bearing areas.
