G0646/G0647 50/65 Ton Ironworker
Lubrication
There are four points on the ironworker that
require at least monthly lubrication: 1) The beam
pivot shaft, 2) the shearing hold-down adjustment
rod, 3) the angle iron hold-down screws, and 4)
the shearing support frame leadscrew and bev
-
eled gears.
Before lubrication, wipe debris and built-up grime
from all threaded parts and gearing. Clean away
any remaining material with a solvent or min-
eral spirits product such as the cleaner/degreaser
from Grizzly shown in Figure
9 on Page 15.
Beam Pivot Shaft
Use a grease gun to add 1–2 pumps of multi-pur-
pose automotive-grade grease to the beam pivot
shaft grease fitting on the rear of the machine
(see Figure 49).
