Lubrication
This cold cut saw requires regular lubrication to
maintain smooth movement and ensure long-last-
ing operation.
An essential part of lubrication is cleaning the
components before lubricating them. Clean all
exterior components in this section with mineral
spirits, shop rags, and brushes before lubricating.
This step is critical because grime and chips build
up on lubricated components over time, which
makes them hard to move.
4. Place oil drain pan beneath saw gearbox,
and remove oil drain plug, located on bottom
side of gearbox (see
Figure 45).

Lube Type ... Model T27914 or ISO 68 Equivalent
Lube Amount ..................................... 1–2 Pumps
Lubrication Frequency ........... 8 hrs. of Operation
Proper lubrication of the vise leadscrew (see
Figure 46) is done with a pump-type oil can that
has a tip wide enough to seal the ball oil inlet. We
do not recommend using metal needle or lance-
type tips, as they can push the ball too far into the
oiler, break the spring seat, and lodge the ball in
the oil galley.
