Lubrication

Use the information in the charts below as a daily guide for lubrication tasks. We recommend using Grizzly T23962 (ISo 68) or T23963 (ISo 32) lubri- cants (see Accessories, Page 64) for most of the lubrication tasks.

NOTICE

The recommended lubrication is based on light-to-medium usage. Keeping in mind that lubrication helps to protect the value and operation of the lathe, these lubrication tasks may need to be performed more fre- quently than recommended here, depend- ing on usage.

Failure to follow reasonable lubrication practices as instructed in this manual could lead to premature failure of lathe compo- nents and will void the warranty.

Oil Type	Grizzly T23963 or ISO 32 Equivalent
Oil Amount		18 Quarts
Check/Add Frequency		Daily
Change	Every 1000 Operating Hours

The headstock gearing is lubricated by an oil bath that distributes the lubricant with the motion of the gears, much like an automotive manual transmis- sion. Change the oil after the first 300 hours of use, then every 1000 hours.

Checking Oil Level

The headstock reservoir has the proper amount of oil when the oil level in the sight glass is approxi- mately halfway. The oil sight glass is located on the right side of the headstock, as shown in Figure 111.
