A1’s catalog does not list a wire rope lubricant. Use the rope maker’s product and inspection schedule.
Service before the climb
Plan grease and gearbox checks with the erection crew so climbing-section points are done while they are still easy to reach.
Fluids by compartment.
Confirm the fluid type, grade, and specifications in the tower crane maker’s manual before ordering. These examples are not a fitment result for a specific machine.
Slewing ring and pinion
Slewing bearings take the grease grade the crane maker lists; open pinions may need a dedicated open-gear lubricant.
