If the oil on the dip stick is less than 3" from the tip of the stick, add oil.

Changing Headstock Oil

The headstock oil must be changed after the break-in period and then annually (or every six months with heavy service or extreme working conditions).

Since this lathe uses a base-mounted oil tank, removing the drain plug and using a drain pan is not a convenient option when changing the oil. Alternately, we recommend using a remote oil pump with a suction hose that can be inserted through the filler spout to the bottom of the oil tank.

If a remote oil pump system is not available, use the headstock oil pump for this purpose, as instructed below.
