Lubrication
the bearings on your bandsaw are factory lubri-
cated and sealed. Merely leave them alone unless
they need to be replaced.
When needed, brush a light coat of multi-purpose
grease on the tension leadscrew (all Models) and
guide post rack (Model g8146z only) to maintain
smooth operation (see figures 44 & 45).
if the table becomes dif ficult to tilt, position it so
that you can brush a thin coat of multi-purpose
grease on the trunnion surface (see figure 46).
