What happens here
Proper greasing of pivot points is vital for the longevity and smooth operation of an excavator. Identify all pivot points on the machine, which are typically found at pins where components articulate. Apply grease using a grease gun until you see it begin to protrude from the joint, indicating sufficient lubrication. This process should ideally be performed daily or every 8 hours of operation.
Goal: Properly grease all necessary pivot points on the excavator
