Cleaning & Protecting
Wipe the arbor press down with a clean shop rag
and mineral spirits. When dry, protect the unpaint-
ed surfaces by applying a thin film of ISO 32 oil.
Lubrication
Ball Oilers
Oil Type ......Model T23963 or ISO 32 Equivalent
Oil Amount ......................................... 1–2 Pumps
Lubrication Frequency ...........8 Hrs. of Operation
Proper lubrication of the two ball oilers (see
Figure 13) is done with a pump-type oil can that
has a plastic or rubberized cone tip. We do not
recommend using metal needle or lance tips, as
they can push the ball too far into the oiler, break
the spring seat, and lodge the ball in the oil galley.
Push the tip of the oil can nozzle against the ball
oiler to create a hydraulic seal, then pump the oil
can once or twice. If you see sludge and contami-
nants coming out of the lubrication area, continue
pumping the oil can until the oil runs clear. Move
the components through the entire path of travel a
few times to distribute the oil. When finished, wipe
away the excess oil.
