Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Quicklub® On Board Grease System for your John Deere
350/400D Articulated Dump Truck. The system has been designed to increase the component
life and overall productivity of your equipment, while reducing labor costs related to the
traditional method of point-by-point manual lubrication.

The system consists of the Quicklub® progressive metering valves that positively displace and
meter precise amounts up to N.L.G.I. #2 shop grease down to -13°F temperature. Grease is
distributed to each connected point through high-pressure tube and hose.

This Quicklub® kit is designed to work with your John Deere 350/400D Articulated Dump
Truck. This is a fully automated lubrication system utilizing a 24 volt DC heavy duty electric
pump with integrated timer that dispenses lubricant to the progressive metering valves at timed
intervals. The lubricant is pumped to the primary metering valve, which distributes it to
secondary metering valves in specific zones of service. The secondary metering valves deliver
measured amounts of lubricant proportional to each lube point in its zone.

The components are connected with lengths of high-pressure hose and tubing that are
included in the kit. Contents of the kit are specifically marked to coincide with this instruction
manual to achieve a consistent and quality installation.

This manual has been included with the system as an easy-to-follow guide for installation and
operation. Keep it with the equipment, as it is also a trouble-shooting manual to keep your
automated lubrication system working properly.

This kit also contains Installation and Operation Instructions for the 203 series system supply
pump. Please refer to this manual for detailed information on operations, maintenance, trouble
shooting and technical data. If missing, please contact Lincoln and request service page form
#403439.Durable and reliable, the Quicklub® On Board Grease System has been carefully
designed using industry proven products to provide long and trouble-free life under the most
severe farming conditions.

Preparation/Installation Overview

The following steps will assist the installer with a systematic approach for installing the
Quicklub Automated lube system on the John Deere 350/400D Articulated Dump Truck. By
following the steps outlined, a successful installation will be achieved and will increase the
service life of all pins and bearings connected to the lube system.

Preparation
• Compare the bill of material with the kit contents
• Clean machine thoroughly
• Survey the equipment and locate all lubrication points to be serviced by the lubrication
system
• Lubricate each point with a grease gun prior to removing grease fittings to assure grease
acceptance. Any points that will not accept grease must be repaired prior to system
installation.
• After confirming all points will accept grease, remove all grease fittings.

Installation Overview
• Install appropriate adapters and tube fittings in lube points.
• Position valve mounting brackets on machine.
• Attach metering valves to previously mounted brackets.
• Using tubing cutters, cut to length individual tubing feed lines from secondary valves to lube
points and make connections.
• When installing feed line tubing into the Quicklinc fittings, push until firmly seated.
• Neatly bundle, loom with spiral wrap provided and tie strap feed lines wherever possible to
protect from abrasion.
• Size, cut and attach appropriate hose ends to all supply lines. The high-pressure hose is
used as supply lines from the pump to the primary valve and the primary to the secondary
valves. It is recommended that the supply lines be routed and cut only after all valves and
the electric pump have been attached to the machine. This assures the supply line is cut to
the proper length. Also, allow for unrestricted movement while the machine is in motion.
• Route supply lines from the pump to primary valve and from the primary valve to the
secondary valves and make connections.
• Secure supply/feed lines with tie straps, so not in harms way.
• Mount pump and make electrical connections (electrical diagram included with the pump).

System Operation
The key components of the Quicklub system are:

1. Pump with Integrated Timer

2. Divider valve network consisting of a Primary Valve and Secondary Valves with attached
Cycle Indicator Pin .

3. A lubrication event is initiated by actuating the pump via the Integrated Timer based on a
preset “pause time” or time between lubrication events.

4. The Pump dispenses lubricant to the primary divider valve

5. The Primary Valve distributes the lubricant to the secondary valves

6. The Secondary Valves distribute and dispense lubricant to the lubrication points.

7. Lubricant flow through the divider valves actuates the Cycle Indicator Pin for a visual
inspection pf proper operation.

The pump will run until the proximity switch is closed indicating one complete lube event.

8. The controller now begins countdown for the next lubrication event.

 Divider Valve Operation
At the heart of every Quicklub System is the metering valve or progressive distributor block,
designed to positively meter the input of lubricant (oil up to NLGI #2 greases) out to the
connected number of lubrication points irrespective of distance and back pressure. The inlet
passageway is connected to all piston chambers at all times with only one piston free to move
at any one time.

• With all pistons at the far right, lubricant from the inlet flows against the right end of piston A (fig. 1).
• Lubricant flow shifts piston A from right to left, dispensing piston A output through connecting
passages to outlet 2. Piston A shift directs flow against right side of piston B (fig. 2).
• Lubricant flow shifts piston B from right to left, dispensing piston B output through valve ports of
piston A and through outlet 7 (fig. 3).
• Lubricant flow shifts piston C from right to left dispensing piston C output through valve ports of
piston B and through outlet 5.
• Piston C shift directs lubricant flow against right side of piston D (not illus.)
• Lubricant flow shifts piston D from right to left, dispensing piston D output through valve ports of
piston C and through outlet 3.
• Piston D shift directs lubricant through connecting passage to the left side of piston A (fig. 4).
• Lubricant flow against left side of piston A begins the second half cycle which shifts pistons from left
to right, dispensing lubricant through outlets 1, 8, 6 and 4 of the divider valve.

13
Cross-porting (Divider Valve)
Installing a closure plug in one or more outlets may combine outputs from adjacent outlets.
Lubricant from a plugged outlet is redirected to the next adjacent outlet in descending
numerical order. Outlets 1 and 2 must not be plugged since they have no cross-port
passage to the next adjacent outlet.

In figure 5 outlets 5 and 3 are cross-ported and directed through outlet 1. In this example,
outlet 1 will dispense three times as much lubricant as outlet 7. The tube ferrules in outlets 1
and 7 block the cross-port passage so that lubricant flow is directed through the outlets.

Priming the Primary and Secondary Valves (General Instruction)

Before you perform a functional test on the system, each valve needs to be filled with grease. This is usually
done with a Powerluber grease gun.

Hook a Powerluber to the 700506 Grease Fitting on the Primary valve and begin pumping. You should see the
indicator pin move in the Primary valve within 15 seconds. The indicator pins in all Secondary valve should
eventually move. If they do not, there is a blockage or problem in the system. Once the indicator pins in all
valves cycle, the system is ready for the functional test.

System Start-up

The following checklist has been developed as an aid in verifying proper installation and
operation of the Quicklub® Onboard Grease System. By completing the steps outlined below,
the operational readiness of the system and resulting extension of the component life of all
points connected to the system will be insured.

• Apply grease gun (manual or pneumatic) to the grease fitting located on the Primary valve
and each secondary valve inlet. While pumping grease through the system, cycle the
indicator pin on the primary metering valve a minimum of 15 times. NOTE: Grease gun
nozzle and grease fitting should be thoroughly cleaned before lubricating to prevent flow of
contaminants into the lube system.
• Inspect primary valve supply and outlets for grease discharge. If leakage is detected,
tighten the fittings.
• Continue to cycle the system until fresh grease appears at each lube point.
• Inspect each lube point fitting for leaks. Correct any leaks by firmly pushing tube into the
fitting until seating occurs, or tighten the threaded fittings for components connected with
hose.
• Operate the equipment through its complete range of motion, inspecting for unrestricted
movement of tube and hose. Correct any problems of rubbing, chaffing or kinking.
• Inspect all hose and tube that is not covered with some type of protective wrap. Wrap any
tube or hose that would be susceptible to damage from rubbing or chaffing.
• Inspect all hose and tube connected to moving components. Insure that adequate hose or
tube is provided to allow unrestricted movement to these moving lube points.
• Verify proper pump operation and verify time setting by activating pump with the green
activation button located on the face of the pump control panel. Activate the pump at least
three times to insure proper operation.
• After the machine is in operation for a period of time (approx. 80 hours), you may find you
need to adjust timing to a shorter or longer period based on the operating conditions.
• Fill the reservoir with selected grease by filling at the grease fitting located on the face of
the pump reservoir.

Daily Walk-Around Inspection

The Lincoln Industrial Quicklub automated lube system components are designed, engineered,
manufactured and assembled to the highest quality standards. This lube system requires little
maintenance, however, to ensure maximum reliability and to realize maximum service life of all
components, it is highly recommended that a daily walk -around inspection be performed.

The daily walk -around inspection should include the following:

NOTE: Operator to confirm operation of electric pump while machine is in service.

• Observe lubricant level in reservoir. Fill reservoir if it is low.

• Inspect the relief valve for excess purge of grease. Refer to the trouble shooting guide on
next page.

• Inspect all valves and lube point connections to verify that no leaks are occurring.

• Inspect supply/feed lines to insure that no breaks or leaks have occurred.

• Inspect lube points so that all lube points have a “fresh grease appearance.”

Troubleshooting
Locating Blockage in Lincoln Quicklub Systems

Description
In a Lincoln Quicklub Lubrication System, free flow of lubricant from the pump through the
transmission system and the bearings is necessary. If any portion of this transmission system
(a divider valve, line fitting or any bearing) does not freely accept and pass its portion of the
lubricant a blockage has occurred. This blockage will cause a higher than normal pumping
pressure to be developed by the pump. Depending on the application or system design, this
blockage with its resultant high pump pressure will usually cause a complete loss of lubricant
flow into the total system and no bearing will be receiving lubricant. The loss of flow due to a
blockage is first indicated with the higher than normal system pressure that is developed by the
pump as it attempts to overcome this blockage.

This abnormally higher pressure that is a result of a blockage is limited, isolated, and signaled
through the use of various performance indicators, reset and relief, incorporated into the
system design.

Divider Valve
A Quicklub divider valve is a proportioning device consisting of a minimum of three pistons. A
primary divider valve is the first divider valve downstream from the lube pump. A secondary
divider valve is any divider valve receiving lubricant from the primary divider valve.

Outlets
Each outlet on a Quicklub divider valve dispenses .012 in³ per cycle. If an outlet is plugged, the
lubricant will be diverted to the next outlet down allowing proper proportioning of lubricant to all
lubrication points.

Warning —Never block lube outlets numbered one and two.

Locating Blockage
If a blockage exists in a Quicklub lubrication system it is caused by one of the following
reasons:
(1) Crushed transmission line in the System.
(2) Blocked bearing in the system.
(3) Improperly drilled fitting in the system.
(4) Blocked divider valve in the system.

All servicing and disassembling should be carried out under the cleanest conditions possible. A
blockage in a Quicklub system will be indicated by the fault light and by the pump element
relief indicator, exhausting lubricant to atmosphere. Before proceeding as outlined, make a
visual inspection of the system and check for crushed lines or improper divider valve
installation. Verify that each divider valve outlet required to discharge lubricant can do so and
that no plugs have been installed in an outlets one and two of any valve.

Use Filtered Lubricant Only.

58
Note: Dirt and foreign material are the worst enemies of any lubricating system.

Procedure
1. Use a manual pump with a gauge. Fill the pump with clean, filtered lubricant common to the
system. Connect the manual pump into the inlet of the primary divider valve and slowly
operate pump. If system will not cycle freely below 1,500 PSI, see Step 2.

2. With pressure on the primary as outlined in step 1, remove one at a time each supply line
(if the supply lines cannot be removed, remove outlet fittings starting from the bottom and
working towards the valve inlet) and attempt to operate manual pump after each line is
removed. Do not exceed 2,000 PSI. If pressure drops and primary cycles freely after a line
is removed then blockage is downstream in the area that is being served from that outlet.
See Step 3. If all feed lines are removed and primary will not cycle, blockage is in this
divider valve. Note: When a feed line of a blocked area is removed a small shot of trapped
lubricant will usually surge out of this outlet as the inlet pressure on the divider valve drops.
If testing in Step 2 indicates a blockage in the primary divider valve, this divider valve must
be replaced.

3. Testing accomplished in Step 2 has indicated the blockage is downstream of the primary
divider valve. Reinstall the feed line into the primary valve and proceed to downstream
secondary divider valve and repeat step 2 on the secondary valve. If lubricant can be
discharged freely through the secondary valve, the blockage is in the supply line between
the primary and the secondary valve.

4. If high pressure exists on one of the secondary outlets, blockage has been located. Look
for crushed line, tight bearing, improperly drilled fittings and/or lube inlet port. Correct as
necessary.

Contamination
If dirt, foreign material or any other form of contamination is found as the source of the
blockage, clearing the blockage will only temporarily solve contamination blockage problems.
The source of the contamination must be eliminated for satisfactory service. The
reservoir must be inspected and cleaned if necessary. The reservoir filling method should be
reviewed to eliminate any chance of foreign material entering the reservoir during filling. All
lubricating systems require filtered lubricant.

Grease Separation Blockage

If a hard wax or soap like material is found in the valve outlets, grease separation is occurring.
This means that the oil is being squeezed from the grease at normal system operating
pressure and the grease thickener is being deposited in the divider valve. Cleaning the divider
valve will usually result in only temporarily solving the problem. Consult your lubricant supplier
for recommendations on alternate lubricants and your local Lincoln Distributor to verify
compatibility with centralized lubricating systems

Off-Season Maintenance Procedure for Lincoln Quicklub Automatic
Lubrication System-203 Style Pumps
Most farm machinery is purchased for specific needs and is only used at certain times of the
year. Machinery equipped with Lincoln 203 Style Automatic Lubrication Systems most
commonly sit idle for many months of the year.

In the past several months, during machinery start up, we received a few calls regarding lube
system start up issues. Our research of the reported issues determined that most were related
to the grease being used.

Greases react in different manners to various pressures and temperatures they are exposed
to. Some grease’s tend to separate over time due to inactivity. We recommend that you look
to your grease supplier for a recommendation of a grease that is less likely to separate under
your specific conditions.

Grease “pump-ability” and “flow-ability” are key factors in making sure the Lincoln Automatic
Lubrication system works as expected. We have found that after startup of the equipment and
the lube system, and after the lube system is cycling periodically, we receive very few reports
of system issues. In an effort to prevent issues during the next season start-up, we have
developed the following “Off Season Maintenance Procedure” that we feel will better insure the
results that you expect the next time you use your equipment.

PLEASE NOTE:

- You must perform this procedure on a monthly basis to prevent system issues
during the next usage.

- Leave only enough grease in the pump to perform Step #1. DO NOT FILL THE
RESERVOIR AFTER THE LAST USAGE OF THE YEAR.

Off Season Maintenance Procedure

1. Turn the machinery ignition switch on and manually cycle the lubrication system by
depressing the “manual lube” button located directly under the red and blue rotary timer
switches on the front of the pump housing under the timer access cover. Depressing the
button for 2 seconds will initiate a manual lube event. Cycle the system at least two more
times to insure the grease is cycled through the primary valve.

61
2. Using a Lincoln PowerLuber or a manual grease gun, cycle the primary valve (first valve
from the pump element) via the grease fitting. Pump grease for 10 seconds with the
PowerLuber or 10 strokes of a standard grease gun.

Grease
Fitting

3. The last step would be to cycle each secondary valve, again using the PowerLuber or
manual grease gun. You should refer to your owner’s manual to determine the number and
location of the secondary valves. Cycle each valve until fresh grease is seen at a visible
grease point.
