Tool Box Training was developed as a single point lesson tool for maintenance supervisors by Allied subject matter experts: Mike Gehloff, Ricky Smith and Dan DeWald. They are designed to be used once a week or every other week. These are created so a supervisor can cover the material in about 10-20 minutes. The objective is to transition a maintenance team to a higher awareness and competency level.  Below is the Tool Box Talk for Lubrication of Bearings:
