Ball Oilers

Oil Type

Oil Amount

1–2 Pumps

Lubrication Frequency

8 Hrs. of Operation

Proper lubrication of ball oilers (shown in Figures 45–46) is done with a pump-type oil can that has a plastic or rubberized cone tip (see Page 27 for offerings from Grizzly). We do not recommend using metal needle or lance tips, as they can push the ball too far into the oiler, break the spring seat, and lodge the ball in the oil galley.

Push the tip of the oil can nozzle against the ball oiler to create a hydraulic seal, then pump the oil can once or twice. If you see sludge and contami- nants coming out of the lubrication area, continue pumping the oil can until the oil runs clear. When finished, wipe away the excess oil.

Use the component controls to access the entire length of the surfaces, then clean them with min- eral spirits and shop rags.

When dry, apply a thin coat of oil to the surfaces. Move each component through the entire path of travel several times to distribute the lubricant.
