Reelmaster 3100−D Page 7 − 13 Cutting Units
Service and Repairs
Greasing Bearings, Bushings, and Pivot Points
Each cutting unit has 9 grease fittings (with an optional
front roller installed) that must be lubricated regularly
with No. 2 general purpose lithium base grease.
Grease Fitting Locations and Quantities
Each bedknife adjuster has 1 fitting (Fig. 15). Each reel
bearing housing has 2 fittings. Each front and rear roller
has 2 fittings, one on each end of the roller (Fig. 16).
NOTE: Lubricate only one reel bearing grease fitting on
each end of cutting unit.
IMPORTANT: Lubricate cutting units immediately
after washing. This helps purge water out of bear-
ings and increases bearing life.
1. Wipe each grease fitting with a clean rag.
IMPORTANT: Do not apply too much pressure or
grease seals will be permanently damaged.
2. Apply grease until pressure is felt against the handle.
3. Wipe excess grease away.
