    I have a Henny Penny scr-8 that goes threw the brass bushing that the wheels spin on. Is there a grease or lube that’s suppose to be used.

    Hi Scott

    It has been a couple years since my last repair of HP SCR-8. however I believe

    there is no lubrication of the parts that I am aware, and after reviewing the service and operator manuals it doesn’t call for any.

    is this the bearing you have failing:

    Also check the trueness of the shaft.  If bent at the end it will make excessive wear. Good rinsing is important to prevent cleaners from reacting with the metal.
