Removing Old Lubricants
Dust and dirt, mixed with oil or grease, can prevent fresh lubricants from reaching the
surfaces that need it most.
Before applying new lubricant, clean accumulations of grease from the gears. Hold a rag
alongside each gear, and brush debris from the gear onto the rag. Clean as much of every
drive gear as possible, then run the processor transport system very briefly, and clean again
until all portions of the gears have been exposed for cleaning.
After the drive gears have been cleaned, lubricate them as indicated in Figure 4-3.
