Oil Dipper Lubrication

Horizontal Models 110000, 120000, 150000, 200000, 210000

Two types of dippers are used on horizontal shaft engines. One is integral to the rod cap, the other is a separate part (A, Figure 9) attached to the rod cap with a connecting rod screw. Inspect the dipper for evidence of bending, cracking, or looseness. Replace if necessary following instructions in Section11 - Pistons, Rings, and Connecting Rods.

Oil Slinger Lubrication

Vertical Models 97700, 99700, 110000, 120000, 210000, 280000, 310000, 330000

The oil slinger/governor gear (A, Figure 10) is used on vertical shaft engines. It is mounted to and driven by the cam gear.

Visually inspect oil slinger/governor gear assembly for wear, broken teeth, broken slinger paddles, or burrs. Replace assembly if worn or damaged.
