Dear Eng.

Tarek,
we always frequently ignored the adequate lubricant supply
This constant procrastination can lead to a destructive downward spiral and unscheduled downtime.
Common symptoms relating to lubrication include:

 Widely fluctuating oil levels


 Inspections that don’t get performed or reported (MDR)
 Filters and breathers that don’t get changed on time
 Oil samples that never get taken or are collected improperly
 Oil that is not changed on time
 Bearings that don’t get a timely shot of fresh grease

Periodically forgetting to perform “the rights of lubrication” is equivalent to periodically accepting


preventable failures. We can and should do better.
The Crux of the Problem, Lubricant starvation is an almost silent destroyer. While there are telltale
signs, they generally aren’t recognized or understood. Of course, there are varying degrees of
starvation. Complete starvation is sudden and blatant. However, more moderate partial starvation is
what tends to go unnoticed until failure. Then, other suspect causes (the bearing, lubricant, operator,
etc.) may be falsely blamed.

Please we need to commitment by sustained and adequate supply of the lubricant


Every month Wearhouse should provide us by the following amount of lubricant supply

 4 Drum Oil Mobil Engine, Delvac MX 15W-40


 4 Drum Oil Mobil Hydraulic, DTE 25
 2 Drum Oil Mobilgear 600 XP100
 2 Drum Oil Mobilgear 600 XP320
 1 Drum Oil Mobil Hydraulic, DTE 10 EXCEL 68
 1 Drum Oil Mobilube ™ 1 SHC 75W90
 2 Pail Mobil Gear Grease X 18 Kg, XHP222

Your cooperation is highly appreciated
