Grease Bank Kit
7- and 10-Foot EWNT Drills
Used with:
705 (all models)
1005 (all models)
These instructions explain how to install a Grease Bank Kit. These kits greatly improve the ease of lubricating coulter pivots by adding one or two bulkheads, with zerks and tubing to new grease adaptors at the coulters.
These instructions apply to an installation of either:
Kit Kit Description
151-126A 7’ GREASE BANK KIT
151-127A 10’ GREASE BANK KIT
Each kit upgrades an entire drill. There will be a few parts left over if your drill has less than the maximum possible number of coulters.
Due to shipping regulations, the kit does not include any touch-up paint to restore the welded areas. Your Great Plains dealer can provide it as Great Plains part:
821-001C PAINT GP GREEN SPRAY CAN
The grease bank does not serve the coulter disk bearing zerks (if present), as they rotate and cannot accept a fixed lubrication tube.
When you see this symbol, the subsequent instructions and warnings are serious - follow without exception.

Your life and the lives of others depend on it!

Before You Start

Review these instructions, with the following objectives at each step:
• Safety: welding is required and represents a potential fire and personal injury hazard - plan the location and the work to minimize risks.
• Inventory: examine any called-for items and make sure all parts are present.
• Comprehension: make sure you understand where each part or assembly is installed, and what tools are required for the task.

Pre-Assembly Preparation

Work Location

1. Move the drill to a location with:
• a non-flammable surface beneath,
• adequate illumination,
• protection from weather (for painting), and;
• access to power for any power tools.

!
CAUTION
There will be sparks from welding. Dry grass, wood floors, or areas with spills of flammable fluids are not suitable locations for the work.

Prepare Drill

2. Raise the drill and install transport locks. The work may be performed with the drill lowered, but access to the coulter zerks is easier when raised.
3. Block the tires and install the parking jack.
4. Disconnect all hydraulic and electrical connections at the hitch. Secure hoses and cables to prevent ground contact.
5. Unhitch the tractor and move it away from any poten­tial contact with the drill frame (to prevent possible system damage if electric welding is used).

7. Loosely assemble two mount plates inside the ends of the mount , with the weld ears facing
away from the mount.
8. Position the assembly anywhere along the top from edge of the drill’s mainframe tool bar. Make sure the
lower rear edge ( , the weld region) is in continuous contact with the tool bar, and tighten the nuts to about half of final torque (the bulkhead is disassem­bled and re-assembled in later steps).

Determine Mounting Location

The ideal location for the bulkhead(s) depends on drill configuration, particularly frame-mounted coulters. Choose locations that provide full access to the zerk openings for maintenance, and ample clearance both mount brackets for welding.
Refer to Figure 3
The suggested location for the single 705, and right 1005 bulkhead is toward the right end of the tool bar, near or in
front of the right arm pivot plate .
On the 1005, the second bulkhead is located at the left end of the tool bar, near or in front of the left arm pivot

plate .
9. Using a bulkhead assembly as a guide, mark the outline of each plate at the weld location.
