The ECO Plus 2 Unit is designed for longlife lubrication. On expiry of the guarantee, the roller bearings, the inside of the hub and the seals must
be thoroughly cleaned (with diesel oil), dried, checked to see if they can be re-used, and regreased every 3 years when used of -road, or every

5 years when used on the road within Europe (or every year when of -road and every 2 years when on the road outside of Europe) (observe the
current BPW maintenance instructions).
Use a microfi bre cloth to clean the bearing seats of the axle stub (metal must be bright, dry and free of grease) and apply Castrol White T thinly
all around using a microfl eece brush.
