5. LUBRICATION
5-1 Headstock Lubrication
Headstock lubrication is a splash injection combination system. Oil grooves are
machined around the headstock to provide lubricant flowing from oil grooves to
spindle, then the oil will reach down to the bottom of the headstock. To add oil,
please take off the oil plug on the top of the headstock cover, and fill the oil to the
centerline of oil sight glass. Oil drain hole is located on the left bottom side of the
headstock.
Before operating the lathe, please be sure the headstock is filled with oil. If not,
please add Shell Tellus #32. Replace oil after three months usage for the first time.
Thereafter every six months.
5-2 Gear Box & Apron Lubrication
1. Gear box is an oil bath type system. To ensure the long service life of gear box,
please replace the oil in the gear box every six months.
2. Apron is also an oil bath type system. Add more oil as soon as the oil level is
lower than the center line of the oil sight glass.
