Table Ways (One-Shot Oiler)

Oil Type

Model T23962 or ISo 68 Equivalent

Oil Amount

One Pull of Pump Handle

Check/Add Frequency

4–8 hrs. of Operation

The one-shot oiler is connected to a series of alu- minum tubes that carry the lubricant to wear points along the table horizontal and vertical ways.

Pull the handle out slowly then release it to send the oil through the tubes (see Figure 53), then move the table through all paths of movement to evenly distribute the lubricant.

Use the sight glass on the side of the oiler to know when to re-fill the reservoir.
