There are five principles for lubricant management, but different interpretations exist: they are fixed location, fixed quality, fixed quantity, fixed timing, and assigned personnel; or fixed location, fixed quality, fixed quantity, fixed timing, and regular inspections. Which interpretation is correct?
Fixed location, fixed quality, fixed quantity, fixed frequency, fixed person
Fixed location, fixed quality, fixed quantity, fixed frequency, fixed person
Fixed location, fixed quality, fixed quantity, fixed frequency, fixed person, plus three filtration steps: from large tank to small tank, from small tank to oil jug, from oil jug to funnel

The “five fixed principles management” and “three filtration methods” for equipment lubrication are effective ways to standardize and institutionalize daily lubrication technical management, ensuring proper lubrication practices. They represent the experience gained in lubrication work in our country, and enterprises should organize these practices carefully and carry them out effectively. 1. Contents of the “five fixed principles” for lubrication management: (1) Fixed location – Perform oil filling, top-up, and oil replacement at the locations, lubrication points, and inspection points (oil level sight glasses) specified on the lubrication chart, and check the oil level and supply condition. (2) Qualitative determination: Identify the type, grade, and quality requirements of the oil required for the lubrication points; the oil to be used must pass quality tests. The use of alternative materials or their incorporation requires a scientific basis. The lubrication devices and tools must be thoroughly cleaned to prevent contamination of the oil. (3) Quantification: Perform regular lubrication of the lubricated parts in accordance with the specified quantities, implement quota management for oil consumption, and ensure proper addition of oil, refilling of oil, as well as cleaning and changing of oil tanks. (4) Regularly refill oil at the intervals specified on the lubrication card, and conduct sampling tests at the prescribed intervals. Based on the results, decide whether to clean and change the oil or to use circulation filtration, as well as determine the timing for the next sampling test. This is an important aspect of proper lubrication maintenance. (5) Assignment of tasks: In accordance with the specifications in the chart, the operator, maintenance worker, and lubrication worker are responsible for filling oil, adding oil, cleaning, and changing oil, respectively; meanwhile, a designated person is assigned to take samples for testing. The equipment department should prepare a standard table for the \"five fixed aspects of lubrication management,\" specifying which equipment and which parts require lubrication, what type of oil to use, the frequency of oil filling (or oil change), what lubrication devices to employ, and who is responsible for these tasks. With the advancement of science and technology and the accumulation of experience, “five-fixed management” needs to be further enhanced and improved in practice. 2. “Three filtrations” – Also known as three-stage filtration, this approach is taken to reduce the amount of impurities in the oil and to prevent dust and other contaminants from entering equipment along with the oil. It includes filtration upon receipt, filtration before distribution, and filtration during refilling. Its meaning is as follows: (1) Inlet filtration – The oil must be filtered when it is transported in and pumped into the oil tank for storage. (2) Filtration during distribution: Oil distributed and injected into the lubrication container must be filtered first. (3) Fuel filtration: The oil must be filtered before being added to the equipment’s oil storage area.
