Lubrication

The shielded ball bearings in the motor and throughout the Model G5959/9957 require no fur- ther lubrication during their lifetime. When they do wear out, replacements can be obtained through the Grizzly Parts Department.

Lubricate the areas indicated below every 12 months.

1.Blade angling trunnions. These should be lubricated with 6 or 7 drops of light machine oil.

2.Blade height trunnion. This should also be lubricated with 6 or 7 drops of light machine oil.

3.The two worm gears should be lubricated with an automotive wheel bearing grease. The blade angle worm gear is not shown in

Figure 43.

These points can be reached by removing the table. Check all adjustments when finished lubri- cating.
