Monitor Nozzles shall be lubricated ______ to ensure proper operating condition.

Monitor Nozzles shall be lubricated ______ to ensure proper operating condition.

• A. Annually
• B. Monthly
• C. Weekly
• D. Daily

Answer: (A)

Lubrication of monitor components is about keeping the moving parts free to operate and preventing corrosion or sticking, so the mechanism can swing or open reliably when activated. Doing this on an annual basis helps ensure the parts stay smooth without introducing excess residue or attracting dirt from more frequent applications. Monthly, weekly, or daily lubrication would generally be unnecessary and could lead to buildup or contamination, while waiting too long could allow wear or corrosion to affect operation. Use the lubricant recommended by the manufacturer on the moving surfaces and linkages, applying it so it doesn’t enter the water path.
