Lubrication
Power Feed
The power feed uses SAE 40 oil and should not need to
be changed unless the unit is being repaired.
Single Shot Lubrication System
Use the single shot lubrication system to oil the ways, the
crossfeed screw, and the longitudinal screw by pumping
the handle on the reservoir 2-4 times each day (see
Figure 27). Fill the reservoir regularly with ISO 68 or SAE
20 weight machine oil.
Knee Elevating Screw
Apply liberal amounts of lithium or graphite based grease
using a brush or shop rag to the entire length of the knee
elevating screw.
Drawbar Splines
Place five drops of ISO 68 or SAE 20 weight machine oil
on the splines around the drawbar once a week. This is
accomplished by moving the quill all the way down and
locking it in place. Apply the oil to the splines on the
back side of the drawbar hole. Next, run the quill through
complete motion a couple of times to lubricate splines
(see Figure 28).
