| Abstract/Contents: | Focuses on lubrication as a potentially essential component of equipment maintenance, suggesting that finding specialists in lubrication can be challenging. States that "good lubrication requires knowledge, initiative, and persistence," and warns that "bad lubrication cuts deep into operating budgets, ties up valuable resources, and, in some cases, imperils human life." Provides recommendations on improving oil and lubrication "without much money or effort," highlighting oil cleanliness, container decontamination, utilizing air filters, and eliminating head space. Advises against mixing oils, encouraging tagging and color-coding equipment by lubrication requirement. Concludes that "the focus should be on maximizing uptime so the initial costs of lubricants and filters is just one factor to be considered." |
