The Motion lube caddy debuted as a towable lubrication cart that can easily service enclosed machinery.
As Motion Industries describes, the lube caddy delivers a fast, efficient and clean way to service a facility’s enclosed gearing assets while enhancing worker safety – and it is also compatible with hydraulic systems.
The lube caddy’s features include a dual-design reservoir and an auto shutoff mode that prevents the pump from running dry when the tank empties. Options are available for 40- and 75-gallon oil capacities, enabling sanitary and seamless oil changes without the need for multiple containers. A 150-gallon hoistable version is also available.
Additionally, three operation modes are available: manual, auto and kidney loop. The air-operator pump offers automatic shutoff, allowing hands-off operation while the process runs safely.
According to Motion, the lube caddy is suitable for manufacturers that change lubrication oil periodically – particularly for gearboxes, hydraulic systems and more.
“Our team regularly builds unique solutions to fulfill customer needs, but it’s not often we decide to make one a standard product,” says Scott Smith, West Division Manager at Motion Repair & Services. “What started as a vision evolved into a solid solution that can serve a wide range of industries. The cart’s mobility, compact footprint and integrated design let maintenance teams bring it directly to equipment – no hoses trailing back to a shop, no spills, no drums, no filter carts and no wasted time.”
