C. LUBRICATION
The motor bearings, idler bearings...and under normal/most conditions the tumbler bearings are permanently
lubricated. It is physically possible to re-lubricate the tumbler bearings if you choose to do so even though this
practice is not necessary. Use Shell Alvania #3 or its equivalent. The tumbler bearings used in the dryer DO
NOT HAVE a great fitting. Provisions are made in the bearing housing for the addition of a grease fitting which
can be obtained elsewhere, or from ADC by ordering kit Part No. 882159, which includes two (2) fittings.
