Lubrication - Fontaine 150SP Fifth Wheel Notice D'utilisation

4.2 Lubrication

Grease Specification
Heavy duty grease with a lithium or calcium base should be used
for all lubrication.
Initial Lubrication
Prior to going into operation, the top plate, locking mechanism
and mounting bracket lube points should be well lubricated using
a heavy duty grease (see above).
This should be done even if the fifth wheel is connected to a
central greasing system.
IMPORTANT
1. If a lubeliner or similar system is fitted, an adequate supply of
grease must be applied to the throat area as normal.
2. A longer kingpin on the trailer is required if a third party
lubeliner is used.
3. If a throat lube system is fitted, grease must be applied to the
top plate as normal.
