Grizzly G0554Z owner manual Headstock, Gearbox, & Apron Oil Reservoirs

NOTICE

Drain and refill the headstock, gearbox, and apron oil reservoirs after the first 40 hours of operation to remove any sludge build-up that may accumulate from initial operation.

Headstock, Gearbox, & Apron Oil Reservoirs

Examine the Figures 77–80to identify the loca- tions of the oil sight glasses, drain plugs, and fill plugs for each oil reservoir.

The reservoirs are properly filled when the oil level reaches half-way in the sight glasses. Fill the reservoirs with 20W non-detergent gear oil or an equivalent lubricant. Be sure to thoroughly clean away any excess oil from the fill and drain areas.

NOTICE

When draining the headstock oil reservoir, you must remove the V-belts and take care to thoroughly remove any spilled oil from the pulleys. If oil should get on the V-belts, clean the oil from the pulleys and replace the V-belts with a new set.
