5000/10000 FLYWHEEL GRINDER
LUBRICATION
1.
TABLE SUPPORT BEARING
: The turntable is completely supported from below by a cast
in table support. The table runs on a film of oil supplied by the reservoir in the center of the
base casting. The level of this reservoir is adjustable and must be approximately 1 /16"
above the surface of the table bearing (or the bottom of the table). This level has been pre-
set at the factory and should not require further adjustment. In the event that the level must
be adjusted, this would be accomplished by raising or lowering the plastic constant level
oiler at the rear of the machine by loosening the set screw in the base and sliding assembly
up or down (Figure 27). Use #801155 Table Oil only.
2. The level of the oil under the work table is checked by removing the large flat head cap
screw from the table. A depth gauge is provide with the machine for checking the oil level
through this hole in the table. The overall length of the gauge pin protruding from the round
handle should be equal to the thickness of the machine's table (Figure 28). The oil level
therefore, will be 1/16” above the bottom of the table.
3. The plastic oil reservoir on the constant level oiler at the rear of the machine should be
refilled with oil when it reaches 1/4" from the bottom. Use only #801155 Table Lubricant.
4.
COLUMN
The machine column is lubricated by a wick from the same plastic oil reservoir used on the
constant level oiler. As long as oil is in this container both the table bearing surface and the
column will be adequately lubricated.
5.
LEADSCREW AND NUT
Lubricate leadscrew and bronze nut as required to maintain smooth operation with #801152
Leadscrew Lubricant or a medium duty grease containing graphite or molybdenum.
