Proper lubrication and maintenance of TIMKEN bearing to play the maximum service life.
　　1, grease lubrication
　　TIMKEN bearings and lubrication is best equipment downtime during the implementation of the plan and supplement on a regular basis, at the same time, the older fat removed through oil spills or empty the old grease out. Join the fresh oil injection inlet should be clean before. TIMKEN bearing box there is no injection inlet, you should open the TIMKEN bearing lid or cover, in order to remove the old grease, after cleanup, add fresh oils of the same model.
　　2, are lubricated by lubricating oil
　　Periodically check the oil level and oil lubricants, under normal circumstances, normal oil level oil level window for the device, or marking should be within the range of 1/3-2/3. Fill the cup of oil for oil, oil level whose display only representatives of oil capacity, and TIMKEN bearing box oil level is to meet operational requirements, oil cup oil level lower than the total volume of one-fourth oil supplement may be considered.
　　Check and fill oil method, remove a small amount of lubricant, as compared to the samples and fresh oil, capable units can be considered for examination of oil to ensure oil-qualified. If the sample looks like cloud, then the results may be mixed with water, that is, we often say that the oil emulsion, you should replace the lubricant. If sample thread darken color or thick, it may indicate that the oil has begun to carbide should be completely replaced the old lubricant. If possible, use fresh lubricant to rinse the oil. When you replace the lubricant, should be ensuring that replacement of the lubricant of new, same as the older model, and added it to meet the requirements of the oil level.
　　Using an oil bath lubrication system, if the oil temperature of 60 ° c (140 ° f), and no contamination of lubricating oil, you can replace the lubricant a year. If the oil temperature of 60-100 ° c (140-210 ° f), the lubricating oil needs to be replaced four times a year. If the oil temperature at 25¡æ 100-120 ° f), it needs to be replaced once a month with oil. If the oil temperature of 120 ° c (250 ° f) above, needs to be replaced once a week with oil.
　　Proper installation and maintenance are important factors for TIMKEN bearings run correctly, at the same time, care must be taken to maintain cleanliness of TIMKEN bearings. TIMKEN bearings must be contaminated by pollutants and moisture prevention, must be properly installed and lubricated. In addition, the TIMKEN bearing arrangement of its design, oil seals, lubricants and replacement cycle and specialized maintenance in the form of the same plays an important role, must be concerned.
