Items Not To Lubricate 

(Figure 15)

1. Do not lubricate the 

hex shaft and sprock-

ets (6)

.  All bearings and bushings are life-

time lubricated. For storage, put a slight

amount of 5W-30 motor oil on a cloth and

wipe the 

hex shaft and sprockets (6) 

to

prevent rust.

2. If grease or oil comes in contact with the

disc drive plate (1)

 or the 

friction wheel

(3)

, the 

friction wheel (3)

 can be damaged.

Make sure to thoroughly clean the 

disc drive

plate (1)

 and  the 

friction wheel (3)

.

CAUTION: Any greasing or oiling of the

above components can cause contamina-

tion of the friction wheel (3).  If the disc

drive plate (1) or the friction wheel (3) be-

come contaminated with grease or oil,

damage to the friction wheel will result.

3. The auger gear case is lubricated at the fac-

tory and does not require additional lubrica-

tion.  If for some reason the lubricant leaks

out, have the auger gear case checked by a

factory authorized service center.
