LUBRICATION
Under normal use, the Marvel Series 8 requires
very little lubrication. The few areas that do
require periodic lubrication are described here.
NOTE: All bearings have been grease packed
for life and should require no further attention.
COLUMN TRAVEL FEED CHAIN
Every
three months the feed chain should be lubricated
with light-weight oil.
COLUMN TRAVEL GEAR BOX
The
column travel gear box is shipped with 170
grams (6.0 oz.) / 195 CM³ (11.9 in³) of Mobil
SHC-634 transmission oil.
The gear box is mounted below the table and is
supplied with a dipstick that is accessible from
the top of the table. Clean the area around the
dipstick to prevent contaminants from dropping
into the gear box as the gear box does not have a
drain port.
To check oil level, remove the dipstick. If there
is no oil on the dipstick, the oil level is low. Add
Mobil SHC-634 or equivalent synthetic,
hydrocarbon based oil that is compatible with
Buna-N seals.
NOTE: See the Gear Box Assembly drawing for
additional detail.
COMPRESSED AIR LUBRICATOR
The
compressed air lubricator is mounted on the
outside of the motor enclosure and is not pre-
filled with lubricant. This lubricator has a 0.6 oz
(18 CM³) capacity and should be filled with
SAE #10 oil or a compressed air lubricant that is
compatible with Buna-N seals.
Before servicing, release air
pressure from the system by
using the lockout valve and
applying a padlock to prevent
unauthorized application of
compressed air and to avoid
serious injury. The maximum
pressure that is supplied to the
system should NOT exceed
150 PSIG (10.3 BAR) to
prevent component failure and
to avoid serious injury during
normal saw operation.
The
main
electrical
disconnect switch must always
be turned to the "Off"
position and locked before
adjusting, servicing or
cleaning the saw. Failure to do
so can result in serious injury
or death.
To fill the lubricator, shut the saw down and
lock out the air supply, using the lockout valve
to release air pressure from the system. Remove
the ¼” turn quick-disconnect bowl and fill the
lubricator as needed.
NOTE: The lubrication rate should be set to 2
drops per minute.
The lubrication rate can be viewed through the
lube rate sight dome, located between the top
lube rate adjustment knob and the body of the
lubricator. Remove the air ratchet from the
blade tensioner and activate the air ratchet
trigger continuously while setting the
lubrication rate.
NOTE: See the Lubricator section in Machine
Description for additional details and an
illustration of the Filter/Regulator/Lubricator
assembly.
NOTE: See the Pneumatic Schematic for
additional detail regarding the lubricator and
compressed air system.
