BEARINGS
Fan Bearings
— Lubricate fan bearings every 3 months
with suitable bearing grease. Typical lubricants are given in
Table 13.
Inlet Vane and Outlet Damper Bearings
— These bearings
are oil-impregnated. Annually lubricate with a few drops of
nondetergent SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) 20 oil.
