Follow these steps for bearings equipped with relief-type fitting and no drain:

1. Clean the fitting and pump grease into the bearing until grease relieves from the relief fitting.

2. If, after considerable grease pumping, grease does not come out of the relief fitting, the relief slot may be plugged. Remove the relief fitting and clean the relief slot or replace with a new fitting. Repeat step 1 after the fitting has been cleaned or replaced.

3. Run the equipment at operating temperature and check for excess grease at the relief fitting.
