The ECO Plus 2 hub system is designed for the use of longlife grease. On expiry of the guarantee, the roller bearings, the inside of the hub and
the seals are to be thoroughly cleaned (with diesel oil), dried, checked to see if they can be re-used; and regreased every three years when
used off-road, or every 5 years when used on the road, within Europe (or every year when off-road and every two years when on the road
outside of Europe) (observe the current BPW maintenance instructions).
Apply BPW ECO Protection Grease as thin as possible and around the entire area of bearing seats of the axle stub.

Bearing adjustment ECO Plus 2 hub system (ECO Plus 2 Unit)
1. Undo the hub cap by turning it through approx. 30 degrees in an anticlockwise direction (see page 59).
When turned further the hub cap lifts clearly away from the ECO unit and can be removed by pulling it away.
2. Remove the hooked spring ring and retaining key from the axle bolt.
3. Tighten the axle bolt while at the same time turning the ECO unit with a 46 mm hexagon spanner until the
crown of the axle bolt clicks round.
NB! Do not use an impact driver.
4. Insert the retaining key into the recess in the axle bolt and into the crown of the toothed lock washer (do not
turn the axle bolt back)..
5. Insert the hooked spring ring into the groove at the end of the hexagon profile of the axle bolt.
6. Insert a new O-ring into the groove in the wheel hub.
7. Apply a thin layer of BPW ECO-Li Plus special longlife grease to the hub cap in the area of the O-ring contact
surface and the bayonet fitting.
8. Put the hub cap on (position 1, page 59). Use the 120 mm hub cap spanner to lock the hub cap in place by
turning it through approx. 30 degrees in a clockwise direction, while at the same time pressing on the hub cap.
It is firmly in place when it reaches position 2 (page 59).
NB! Do not use an impact driver - bayonet fitting.
