Headstock Gearbox: the oil in the headstock
should be changed after the first 2 hours of use,
then every 6 months, depending on usage.
the headstock reservoir requires approximately
3.5 quarts of oil. Use grizzly t23963 or another
iso 32 equivalent. the fill cap is located on top
of the headstock. the drain plug and sight glass
are located near the spindle nose (see
figure
40). Add oil until the oil level is in the middle of
the sight glass.
Always disconnect the electric power to the
machine before servicing. Never lubricate
your lathe while it is running.

Quick change Gearbox: lubrication for the
gearbox is provided through 3 oil points, labeled
oil nipple. Add a squirt or two of oil after every
three-to-four hours of use. see
figure 41.
End Gears: Apply a thin coating of grease to the
end gears. Avoid applying excess grease to the
gears. Apply one squirt of iso 32 oil into the port
shown in
figure 42.
Note: Problems can occur if excess grease is
flung onto the V-belts during operation, causing
a loss of power from the belts slipping on the pul-
leys. If this happens, remove and discard the con-
taminated V-belts, clean the pulleys with mineral
spirits or solvent, and install new V-belts.
