Regulations and what they mean
A lubrication system on a mobile machine works unsupervised and mostly out of sight. Its value therefore depends on its condition being checkable regularly and with few moves.
| Interval | Check |
|---|---|
| daily / start of shift | level in the reservoir · visible leaks at the unit |
| weekly | discharge pattern at several points (colour and consistency of the old grease) · check lines for chafing |
| monthly | pressure build-up and holding time · spot-check dividers for indexing |
| quarterly | check the sensors · re-adjust the interval against actual operating hours |
Chafing is the commonest cause of leaks
On a machine with a moving boom, lines run across joints and travel with every motion. Where a line rests against an edge, a chafing point develops over months — and is noticed only once the line is worn through and the points behind it have long run dry. The visual check of the routing is no side item.
The discharge pattern is the best diagnosis
Clean, light-grey grease at the seal gap means the dose is right and counter-pressure stands against dirt. Dark, gritty grease means abrasive is already in the bearing. No discharge at all means under-supply or a broken line. Telling these three apart replaces any instrument in daily use; the full rhythm including the pressure test is in the maintenance plan (PDF, German).
