Lubrication Technologies’ Showcase
Mack LR / Labrie Automizer Right-Hand™ Side Loader Refuse Truck
Project Overview:
This Labrie Automizer Right-Hand™ Side Loader, built on a Mack LR chassis, was outfitted with a ReliaMAX™ Automatic Lubrication System to maintain optimal performance and reduce maintenance demands. With 72 total lubrication points, including 42 on the chassis and 30 on the high-cycle side-arm mechanism, the system ensures consistent and precise grease delivery to every critical component.
The side-arm, which can cycle up to 1,600 times per day, experiences heavy wear on its pivot points and bearings. To meet this challenge, the system is filled with Almagard® Vari-Purpose Lubricant (3751), a high-performance NLGI 1 grease designed to resist shock loading, water washout, and extreme pressure. Automated lubrication during operation minimizes downtime, reduces manual maintenance, and helps prevent premature component failure.
Designed to meet the rigorous demands of municipal waste collection, this installation enhances reliability and extends the service life of both the chassis and side-loader body. The result is a truck that stays productive and efficient across even the toughest routes.
