moved to a new location.
OILING
Referring to Fig. 1, fill the machine at (A) and (B). Oil capacity of class 36200 is 2.5 ounces in the bottom
reservoir and 2.5 ounces in the top reservoir. Use a straight mineral oil, Saybolt viscosity of 90 to 125 seconds
at 100° Fahrenheit (Union Special Spec 175 part no. 28604R). The oil level is checked at gauges (C) and (D).
Maintain oil level between the red lines of these gauges.
This machine is automatically lubricated by a continuously driven rotary pump. Oil flow can be observed
through windows (A) and (B). When installing a new machine or starting a machine that has been idle for
some time, priming may be necessary. Remove plug screws (E), fill holes with recommended oil and replace
screws BEFORE operating. If oil does not flow while machine is running, pump is inoperative.
Remove screw 22733B (F, Fig. 1 inset) to drain oil from the top reservoir. To drain oil from bottom reservoir
remove screw 999-196 (G).
Occasionally, it is necessary to oil the linkage of the presser foot, the knife holder shank (36273A), guide
collar (36273K) and the various links and bearings of the presser foot lifting mechanism and thread tension
