The G1067Z Lathe is equipped with a split pulley system which allows the speed of the lathe to be changed while its running. To assure the smooth operation of this pulley system, we recommend the main spindle and motor spindle be greased occasionally. To do this, remove the pulley cover, vacuum out any saw dust and apply grease to the spots indicated in Figure 27. Disposable acid brushes work best to get into these hard to reach places.
