Regular lubrication will ensure your mill performs at its
highest potential.
Place two to three drops of ISO 68 or SAE 20W non-
detergent oil or similar lubricant directly on the following
areas each time you use your mill (see
Figure.27
):
• Cross slide and saddle ways
• Quill shaft
Apply a light weight lithium based grease directly to these
points once a month or more frequently as needed:
• Longitudinal leadscrew (
Figure.28
)
• Crossfeed leadscrew (
Figure.29
)
Note:
Pry up the leadscrew cover to access the crossfeed
leadscrew.
