EG1703P04 Preface 5 6 Automatic Greasing System Twin 3 1 1 1 2 General information Introduction With an automatic greasing system of Groeneveld all grease points of a vehicle or machine are lubricated automatically at the correct moment and with the correct amount of grease Because greasing takes places while the vehicle or machine is in operation the applied grease is spread optimally over the whole surface to be greased The greasing system requires no user intervention to operate apart from periodically replacing the grease in its reservoir Groeneveld s automatic greasing systems are designed with the utmost care and tested rigorously This guarantees an extended operational life and error free operation even under the most extreme operating conditions Proper installation using the correct type of grease and periodic checks are prerequisites for the continual hassle free operation of the system The periodic checks which take little time and effort can be performed during the normal maintenance of the vehicle or machine during oil replacement for instance Careful selection of construction materials makes the greasing system itself nearly maintenance free ATTENTION The automatic greasing system reduces the time and effort spent on manual greasing significantly However do not forget that there may be grease points that are not served by the greasing system and must still be greased by hand The Twin aut
