One-Shot Oiler
The one-shot oiler shown in Figure 103
lubricates the saddle ways with oil from the
apron reservoir.
To use the one-shot oiler, pull the pump knob out
for two or three seconds and then push it in. The
pump draws oil from the apron reservoir and
then forces it through drilled passages to the way
guides.
Repeat this process while moving the carriage
and cross slide through their full range of
movement to distribute oil along the ways.
Lubricate the guides before and after operating
the lathe. If the lathe is in a moist or dirty
environment, increase the lubrication interval.
