    Where’s the fuse box

    Grease for ring gear and bearing?

    Thanks Nige, I come from the paper mill background and we had a mobil product SHC PM 460 that repelled water wonderfully. We put this in all our wetend bearings. The XHP may be better for xtreme high pressures seen in the sear of the gears. I will have to look into the XHP222. Thanks.

    I have this schematic in my manual. Any help in locating the location of the connectors in the run for the lights? I guess it's going to have to be a treasure hunt. I verified that 24V is at the switch and is lighting the computer display, just no voltage to the lights from what I can tell.
