Greasing Maintenance

Quick Tips: Greasing Maintenance

Ramon Jaime, a shop foreman for United Rentals, has some advice for you: Take care of your grease.

June 22, 2017
  • Equipment Maintenance & Service

We wrote about the importance of greasing machines here. It extends the life of the equipment and helps you get the best performance out of it.

Not sure where to put the grease? Take Jaime’s advice and find out where the main grease spots are by looking in the manual or on the doors of the equipment.

Money may make the world go ‘round, but grease keeps the machine parts moving.
