8.0 Lubrication
Switch power off and disconnect the power cord. Remove the top cover. Parts requiring oiling are
marked with red paint. See figures Figure 19 through Figure 25 starting on page 25 for oil and grease
locations. Figure 19 and Figure 20 require the knife and clamp be in the up position. Figure 28
through 32 require the knife and clamp be down. Wipe off any old or excess grease. Use any brand-
name type of grease or light oil to lubricate. Note: the lead screw may be lubricated with grease or
oil. Oil has a tendency to run off and must be lubricated more frequently; grease tends to collect
paper dust and must be cleaned off periodically.
