Lubrication

Power Feed

The power feed uses SAE 40 oil and should not need to be changed unless the unit is being repaired.

Single Shot Lubrication System

Use the single shot lubrication system to oil the ways, the crossfeed screw, and the longitudinal screw by pumping the handle on the reservoir 2-4 times each day (see Figure 27). Fill the reservoir regularly with ISO 68 or SAE 20 weight machine oil.

Knee Elevating Screw

Apply liberal amounts of lithium or graphite based grease using a brush or shop rag to the entire length of the knee elevating screw.

Drawbar Splines

Place five drops of ISO 68 or SAE 20 weight machine oil on the splines around the drawbar once a week. This is accomplished by moving the quill all the way down and locking it in place. Apply the oil to the splines on the back side of the drawbar hole. Next, run the quill through complete motion a couple of times to lubricate splines (see Figure 28).
