If the chain appears especially dirty, clean it before lubrication.
Caution!
- The О-rings between the side plates seal in the lubricant between the pin and the bushing. To avoid damaging the O-rings and resultant loss of lubricant, observe the following rules.
- Use only kerosene or diesel oil for cleaning an О-ring drive chain.
- Any other cleaning solution such as gasoline or trichloroethylene will cause deterioration and swelling of the O-ring.
- Immediately blow the chain dry with compressed air after cleaning.
- Complete cleaning and drying the chain within 10 minutes.
Apply oil to the sides of the rollers so that oil will penetrate to the rollers and bushings. Apply the oil to the О-rings so that the O-rings will be coated with oil.
Wipe off any excess oil.
