What would you do as a 2nd Shift Maintenance Greaser

As a 2nd Shift Maintenance Greaser at North Coast Container, you will play a key role in keeping our presses, seamers, conveyors and other drum-making equipment lubricated and running. You will follow an assigned lubrication route and preventive maintenance schedule, using the correct lubricant, quantity and method at each point. Your commitment to safety will be paramount: you will follow lockout/tagout procedures, keep guards and safety devices in place, and promptly report any unsafe condition.

You will check oil levels and filters, top off reservoirs, and note leaks, noise, heat, vibration and worn parts. You will also inspect drive belts, V-belts and conveyor belts for wear, cracking, fraying, glazing, misalignment and improper tension, and report or tag any belt that needs adjustment or replacement. Problems go to the Maintenance Manager or on-shift mechanic right away, with work orders entered in the CMMS.

You will assist mechanics and electricians with PM tasks, changeovers and repairs, keep lubrication rooms, grease guns and carts organized and free of contamination, handle used oil and rags per environmental procedures, and follow 5S standards. Accurate records of completed routes, lubricant usage and findings, plus clear shift notes for the next shift, keep operations running smoothly.
