Oil System
The oil system is the primary medium for transmitting pressure and must lubricate the running
parts of the gear train.
1. Use medium gear oil #40-46.
2. Keep oil reservoir filled to center line of the sight gauge.
3. A shortage of oil will cause system breakdown to major mechanical components due to
overheating.
4. Change the oil every 12 months.
5. The fill port and sight glass are on the right side of the drill head.
6. The drain plug is on the bottom of the drill head toward the left side.
Oil Disposal
Used oil products must be disposed of in a proper manner following your local regulations.
Accessing and Cleaning the Coolant System
•
Clean the drain screens located on the work tables of the machine.
•
Drain and wash out the dirt and debris from the reservoir. Drain plug is located at the rear of
the base. Remove the pump and the return drain adaptor to gain more access to the
reservoir.
•
Thoroughly clean the pump and pump inlet.
•
Fill the tank with coolant solution.
Oils for Lubricating Coolant
Any 10:1 (water to coolant) solution will work, however we recommend Baileigh Coolant 20:1
(water to coolant) biodegradable metal cutting fluid. It has excellent cooling and heat transfer
characteristics, is non-flammable, and extends tool and machine life. Each gallon of concentrate
makes 21 gallons of coolant.
