Starting Motor
Use Motor Oil
Three or four drops of light motor oil at points "A"
and "B" in the illustration every 1000 miles.
The oil cups on the starting motor have been made
small to prevent overlubrication, which might find
its way to the windings or commutator and eventu-
ally cause failure of the unit. Do not attempt to
supply more oil than is required to fill the cups once.
Clutch
Use 1/6 Pint of Light Motor Oil
and 1/6 Pint of Kerosene
The clutch lubricant is sealed into the clutch and
supplies the driving surfaces as well as the throwout
bearing with oil.
The life of the lubricant is largely dependent on
the usage of the clutch. Harsh clutch action indicates
the need of fresh oil and the clutch should be
promptly inspected by your Hudson dealer if this
condition develops. In any event the oil should be
changed at least every 15,000 miles.
To drain the clutch, crank the engine by hand until the oil filler plug "A" on the front side
of the flywheel is visible through the timing inspection hole. Remove the plug and turn
engine slowly to allow lubricant to drain. Bring plug hole back to opening and insert new
lubricant. Replace the drain plug securely.
