To Whom it May Concern,
Re: Automatic Greasers on Ready Mix Trucks
In 1998 we purchased three new Mack DMM's. At this time it
was decided to install an automatic grease system on them.
The C.P.L. system looked to be the better choice. I contacted
Mr. Ed Hofland, he came to our shop and explained how they
were going to install the system. When the trucks came in,
their capable men brought all the parts necessary and installed
them in our shop. The timers on our grease systems are set
at 1-1/2 hrs. We have never had a problem with the systems
to this day, even though the trucks are subjected to a lot
of mud, etc., which encountered at off road jobsites can be
very rough at times. Sometimes, being buried up to the axles
and having to be winched out with a wrecher. Also it is a
real time saver when servicing the trucks, as the only parts
that need to be greased manually are the drive shafts and
P.T.O. U Joints. It is also very beneficial to the parts being
lubricated, as they are being lubed at times when the parts
are actually moving. Therefore supplying new grease to 100%
of the wear surfaces. We are very pleased with the C.P.L.
grease system and will install it on any future trucks that
we purchase.
Yours sincerely
