Since all bearings are sealed and permanently lubricated,
simply leave them alone until they need to be replaced.
However, this machine does need lubrication in other
places, such as those shown in
Figures

. At a
minimum, lubricate these areas every six months, but
under heavy use or adverse working conditions, increase
lubrication intervals accordingly.
