Oil Lubrication Discontinuation

10 May 2011

GrainGages and other harvest systems which use pneumatic actuator cylinders are no longer being lubricated with oil due to manufacturer's recommendations for sealed cylinders.

Previous GrainGages and other harvest systems that have had pneumatic cylinders lubricated with oil should continue to be lubricated. Unless at some point all of the pneumatic actuator cylinders are to be replaced, such as by ordering our Maintenance Parts Replacement Kit to be installed during an On-Site Service Visit at the recommended 3-5 year maintenance time frame of most harvest systems.
