Keep the tie-rods greased.

Grease the tie rod end bearings and external eyelet bearings to keep the gates moving smoothly.

Check gates are firm.

Check that all gates are correctly adjusted with a firm fit. Turn off the air pressure and move the gates manually. They should move freely.

Pump grease into the main grease line to distribute grease to the bearings inside the channel. We recommend using NLGI #2 grease and pumping 5 times every six months.

Caution! Pump slowly ~one pump per second.
